These are the musings and rantings of a liberal and open minded individual. (Who actually holds a few libertarian viewpoints.) It’s a hodgepodge of political, societal and general life views, on what’s going on in this crazy, mixed up world . . . from an unreal writer. I’m a US citizen who thinks that his country has been hijacked by extremists, fear-mongers and gross profiteers. I promise I’ll try to be as inoffensive as possible, but ocassionally I’ll throw all caution to the wind. Besides, in this day and age just about anything said is going to offend someone.
Consider me the mouthy uncle you never wanted.

Hey Uncle, way to mark yourself as a target for the Repuglican right! Why not just get a t-shirt with the words “Will Terrorize For Food” or “Hates Your Freedoms” and take a run toward the front door of the White House? Better yet, just let me put a canvas bag over your head & lock your liberal ass up in a rickety tool shed for a while, avoid the rush to round you up & ship you to Gitmo. Oh, yes, I’m paranoid. I love my freedoms!
And, did you hear about Bush telling some Afghan war soldiers that he envied them, wish he was young enough to be out riding the range with them? It literally made me sick. This is a guy who allowed Rich Daddy (who was known to Prescott Bush’s friends as ‘Prescott’s idiot son’
to pull strings aplenty & get him a rare spot in the TX Air National Guard, so his preppy ass wouldn’t be in any danger of ground fire. It still steams me that, during the last campaign, Kerry allowed himself to be painted as a total fegeleh, when he had actually not only gone to war but shouldered a weapon in combat. Chicken hawks are the lowest form of human life. Or, not even human fucking beings, but worthless, disorganized pieces of grabasstic shit.
Gotta love the “Full Metal Jacket” reference. I think our loyal minority right-wingers need a Gny. Sgt. Hartman to slap some sense into their silly asses. I’ve seen some neocon sites and blogs that use the phrase “Wake Up America” as their rallying cry, in dealing with things like illegal aliens and the so-called terrorist threat. Ironically, these are the very people who need to waken from their slumber. Since 9/11 the federal government has debased many of our constitutional rights, all in the name of “national security”. And, our right-wing, conservative buddies have happily surrendered these rights, while mindlessly chanting “USA, USA, USA!” It used to be that conservatives were against the federal government having too much control over our lives. My, how times have changed.
