I watched the interview with Couric tonight online...and I cried for MJ Fox and all those affected like him. But most of all I cried for this country-what it has become, what it was.....
I came to this country 12 years ago and thought for the next 6 years what an amazing country this was. I do not label myself with any political party but have ideas and principles that can be conservative and others that are liberal. But I try to decide based on what I feel is right for my fellow man.
I was extremely disappointed with Bill Clinton for his affair and lying about it...would it be too much to expect the President of this country to be faithful to his wife?....but then was even more disappointed with the Republican attack machine that went after him and his family after that. This was when I realized that the government of the US of A was not better than any other on this earth.
This has certainly been proven by the selection of GW Bush as President and signalled for me the end of this "democratic experiment". Since then, this "democracy" has been a joke. And now watching these Republican ads on TV or youtube..I am disgusted by these politicians. And I am disgusted that a man such as Rush Limbaugh is allowed to spew forth his hate filled tirade against anyone or anything that he thinks is liberal or a democrat.
It is time to wake up, Americans, and take back the democracy. Stop claiming that this country is the best in the world...this has been disproven many times over the past few years. It is time to throw out all these scumbags and replace them with people who really care about people.
