I've run out of fingers and toes.

There are just too many hypocritical heartless idiots to count.

It used to be that I could open the paper, or turn on the tube and there would be some politician or rich son-of-a-bitch (I know, redundant) doing something incredibly stupid and insensitive to the American public. But at least there was a time frame to the story. It would remain the top story for weeks, even months.

This is no longer the case. It sems that every day some rich idiot has outdone the greedy bastard from the day before. I can't keep up and I'm losing interest in doing so. Maybe that's their plan. Inundate us with so much culpability on their part that we just tune it all out.

Don't believe me? The latest salvo from the wealthy concerns the end of the Bush tax cuts for the top three percent of Amerians at the end of this year. Guess what? The rich are against it. They still believe in trickle down economics. Actually, they believe in keeping as much of their money as possible and screwing the rest of us.

And how out of touch are they with their struggling unemployed fellow Americans who could really use a litle extra cash to help pay the rent or by food?

On the 16th of this month Orrin Hatch said, "You know, we should not be giving cash to people who basically are just going to go blow it on drugs."

If we are willing to put up with this kind of insensitivity, we deserve all we get, or, rather, don't get.

I need a drink.

The Obama Effect.

Ranting only raises my blood pressure.

It's spring, and I'm feeling mellow. The rich will get richer. The poor will be poorer for it.

If you want to reaffirm the truth that there is an incredible amount of money out there to waste on things, just pick up a copy of Architectural Digest or Veranda magazine. I'm not against having money. I like having a comfortable bed and clean cloths. I just find it disgusting that there are people in our government that haven't a clue as to what it's like to be on the bottom rung of the economic ladder in a capitalistic society.

So how do these bums keep their jobs? Easy. By telling people that they're fighting for their rights, lower taxes, less government, more stuff. What I guess I'm looking for is a little justice. Maybe we should have a government policy against no-bid contracts. Maybe we should NOT be hiring mercenaries to fight our wars.

But then, what is the war mind set of the average member of congress as seen by an average mug like me?

"War? You bet." (thump chest for emphasis). "I'm a patriot!"

Maybe if these guys weren't standing of the floor of congress dressed in Armani and Ferragamo it would sound a little more sincere.

Meanwhile some poor kid in detroit or philadelphia has had enough, and is beginning to listen to the words of some crazy jihadist that sounds real good to him right about now.

I'm just saying there has to be a better way to spread the word of hope in America. If we can't make kids believe it who live here, how are we ever going to convince some kid living in a bombed out village in Afghanistan? And make no mistake. The leaders in Afghanistan and other foreign governments are just as much about keeping their phony baloney jobs as our politicians are here. They just use theorcracy to push their own brand of Jingoism.

If you listen closely, you can hear the same crap is coming out of the mouths of members of our own congress. It just sounds better when you wear an American flag lapel pin.

And why aren't you wearing one?

It's been a year.

Democrates shoot themselves in both feet....again!

Once again the wealthy republicans move one more step to the right and the wallflower democrates just wants somebody to ask them to dance.

In Massachuesetts today, the people elected a centerfold to the Senate. A pretty boy with a pickup who is opposed to universal health care. Hey, thy already have it in his state, so who gives a crap about the rest of the country.

Meanwhile, the democrates can't muster enough courage to even present a health care bill with the support of just 51 senators. They seem to feel so inadequate for the task at hand that to vote on a bill with less than a fillibuster proof majority of 60 is a waste of time.

Which leaves us with the poor president of theis mess. Forced to stand in front of the full body of congress and bite his tounge evevrytime he thinks about the fact that these are career politicians who feel their job is "their job".

I wonder if Barack would just like to let go and tell this band of crooks that they are, really, no really, "Public Servants".

"How dare he" they would grumble.After all, they know what poor is. They drive through it every day on the way to the capital building.

More rants to come.

It's been a while.

Wake Up Bovine Brains!

The insurnace and pharma companys are taking every dime you've got, and giving you mediocre coverge and overly expensive medications in return. And the sad fact is that you will continue to take it and take it and take it, totally unconcerned that you are only one paycheck away from having the electric hammer that is poised over your head, crack your skull open like the watermelon it is.

In other words, get off your ass and get mad! Turn off “Dancing with the American Idle” and get involved. This country is in BIG trouble and needs your help.

Your elected officials are a dead from the neck up lot who will maintain the status quo and change the way business is done in Washington ONLY if you make them. So make them change the healthcare system to work for you.

Your kids, my kids are going to drown in this healthcare mess unless we do somehting about it. I'm not ready to give up on what we can do here. I don't want to leave America to the greedy. But it's time for you to do something too, and I mean NOW.

Do you really want to be remembered as the American generation of lazy ass sons of bitchs who let it all slip away?

It's time you stopped measuring your dick by the car you drive or the watch you wear, and started acting like an adult.

More rants to come.

THANK YOU AMERICA!!

and Sarah....
thanks, but no thanks.

Face Facts! americans do NOT live in a democracy.

Our lives are run by the rich. It's their world. We’re just living in it.

There was a time when there was at least an attempt to create the appearance that with wealth and power came responsibility. But now, even that illusion is gone.

You have only to look at the present occupant of the Whitehouse to understand how truly corrupt we have let our government become under the influence of the all-mighty dollar. George Bush is merely symptomatic of the undercurrent that pervades the wealthiest class in America. Or, as George has called them, "the haves, and have more."

These people are addicted to money, and they will step over your burning corpse to get more. Need an example? How about a useless war with IRAQ that was never about anything but a desire for more, more oil, more money, more power.

I could spend hours enumerating the abuses and downright criminal actions of this administration; but it really does not matter what party is in office. The upshot is this — you are totally screwed if you are not part of the top one percent of American money.

We are living in a culture motivated by greed. There are no patriots in the boardroom. It's all about the Benjamins. American corporations buy their way into the government by way of K Street, and then move, what can't be sheltered, off-shore to avoid taxes and save on paying a decent wage to the American worker.

It's time you realize that these people do not even want to share the road or even the same sidewalk with you. They just want you to clean up after them, then have you go away.

So what can you do about it? Not much. For the simple reason that the vast majority of the people in this country are really, really, stupid; which goes along way towards explaining why things are the way they are. You can never change the rich. You can only eat them.

As long as greed can keep fear in your heart, you cannot change the world.

Best Quote ever that tells the truth.

"See, now I'm thinking, maybe it means you're the evil man, and I'm the righteous man, and Mr. 9 millimeter here, he's the shepherd protecting my righteous ass in the valley of darkness. Or, it could mean you're the righteous man and I'm the shepherd and it's the world that's evil and selfish. I'd like that. But that shit ain't the truth. The truth is, you're the weak, and I'm the tyranny of evil men...."
