I am enraged. So are you. Every time we listen to the corporate propaganda media, and learn more about the abject malfeasance of the Bush Administration and all of the enablers in our Senate the scale of the wholesale ruination of a great nation makes my blood boil . . . and yours.
I recall all the pictures of McCain, surrounded by the order of the platinum parachute during his long and hoaky campaign . . . a veritable parade of dirt bags . . . Phil "Enron Loophole" Gramm . . . Commode polishing Thain . .. and its really clear that the Republican Party stands for The party of corporate theft. Privatize the gain, and socialize the cost. Well they've socialized a lot of cost. Obscene cost, while sneering at the rest of the nation.
I'm sick of cursing at my television which is so divorced from reality, and my hands are tired from writing angry letters to deaf and self absorbed Senate representatives, in between the time spent at my several jobs. I want to be with people and get outdoors . . . I don't have time to organize the house for a house party (Sorry Mr. President).
I want to rail at the piggish representatives with signs that publicly display the ire I am feeling. I want a bunch of us to capture media attention with our noise and volume.
I am looking for an outdoor demonstration. I want to hold a sign, one of many vibrant, pointed signs expressing my outrage, in the company of like-minded others. I want to scream and chant in unison. I want to hear honking horns of solidarity, and see thumbs up signs of agreement. I want to express this with other outraged folks and stir up support visibly. Let's get it done, and done the way it needs to be done without our stupid, inept Senators taking their slices for their corporate backers while watering down the long delayed relief to people.
I envision Americans on every major intersection, in every city, making it plain that we are not going to settle for half measures. If we are spending this money, we might as well go full tilt for the things that have been denied US, and if we fail, at least we gave it our full effort.
No further tax cuts for the rich. No further bloated pork for the arms dealers over education. No more watered down, rendered meaningless crap.
As the person WE ELECTED said: "ENOUGH".
Anyone else finding themselves with this longing? What are we going to do about it?
