fuck it

I just don’t get it. What the fuck is it going to take to make people sit up and take notice of the irreparable damage that President George W. Bush and his corrupt band of cronies has done in their 8 years in office? From spying on civilians in the guise of ‘National Security’ to starting a totally bogus war in Iraq (which has cost his country billions of dollars and thousands of lives…not to mention the tens of thousands of Iraqi’s who’ve lost their lives…) to the Hurricane Katrina fiasco…to the sub prime mortgage crisis…to a crashing economy where the only people getting rich are the rich…the list goes on and on and on and on and on…and I’m sure its only the tip of the iceberg.

And now this…{Bush could weaken Endangered Species Act}

How dose he sleep at night? Is nothing sacred? Oh wait...unborn fetus' are sacred...but that's about it! How can he actually believe that the decisions he’s making are actually going to help his country and/or the world? All he cares about is money. Oil money. Developers’ money. Money for the military. And yet…all this catering to big business has left his country where? Mired in record debt, on the verge of crippling economic depression…divided…tired…confused…why won’t anyone step up and call him out? Is it because its unpatriotic to criticize the President? Is it illegal to hold up his own record of failure and demand he answer for it?

I read articles like this and it makes me angry…but more than that…it makes me very sad. Climate change is happening. Wildlife is disappearing. Natural resources are being gobbled up at a dizzying pace…and soon, we human beings will be left with nothing but concrete and bad air. But a few developers have to wait a few extra weeks and spend a few thousand extra dollars...and the President decides to step in a 'make it right?'

Come ON!

So it costs a developer a little more money to build yet another housing development? So what? Last time I checked…there were thousands of vacant, abandoned homes ready to be bought thanks to good people being forced to declare bankruptcy cause the ‘American Dream’ turned into a nightmare. Why do we need MORE houses? Roads and infrastructure is crumbling at an alarming rate…so why do we need MORE roads? Fix the ones you’ve already got for Christ’s sake! The country is pouring billions upon billions of dollars into Iraq…and for what? Seriously…why? ‘To protect our interests in the region’ they say.

‘So we can have all the oil’ is what they mean!

I really wish I had the strength and conviction that some of the environmentalists and people fighting this criminal (and that’s what he is…the truth will come out!) in the White House have…but alas, it all just looks too damn hopeless at this point. From war crimes, to crimes against humanity...to crimes against nature...I doubt someone trying to destroy the world on purpose could do as much damage as he's done...because he does it with a smile on his face, under the guise of 'freedom'. He's like the pied piper of chaos...with a legion of lemmings at his heels.

But then I think that maybe he knows that its all going tits up in a decade or two…maybe he's seen the documents and the 'classified' information...and knows that there's no hope...so he’s just trying to help out the guys with the most money to keep the sinking ship afloat for a few more years…or at least long enough for he and his buddies to enjoy their retirement years in their palatial mansions in Texas before they choke on all the hot, bad air!

I don’t pretend to know all there is to know about politics…especially the fucked up American variety…but I can’t understand how the American people…the ones the Constitution was written for…and who are ultimately responsible for what their government does (and doesn’t do)…can let this happen…for 8 fucking years!

And now its too late to do anything about it…except vote in another ‘great new hope’ and watch him succumb to the very same greed, corruption and blind eye that has plagued the United States of America for far too long!

You had the chance to lead the world into a new era way back when…to make the tough, hard choices that would have hurt at first, but ultimately would have possibly brought with them a world of hope and life.

Instead…all we see is death, death, death!

Good job America!


Get the money...dollar dollar bills y’all!
