Many Villages

are missing their idiots.


Hey, kids.  Have you been watching the news lately?  A lot of people in this country are going fucking nuts.  There are town hall meetings being held all over the nation where citizens are flat out yelling at their congressman (yes,their congressman).  People are bringing props and crying and making no sense.  It makes me sick to think that folks are getting this upset at Obama's policies after having maintained radio silence during the Bush administration.  It's fucking bizarro.  If ever there was someone to get wildly upset about it was our yokel former president.

A lot of the people are yelling about wanting their country back and/or referring to the America that "they know."  What country is that exactly?  The one that they grew up in?  That Nixon was president of?  Really, you want that back?  The man bugged his own office!  You want the Reagan years back then?  Selling guns to terrorists, a booming cocaine epidemic, and a ground swell of greed?  You can have it: Somewhere else.  Go away. Try Russia.

There's a massive misinformation campaign going on too, completely funded by insurance and drug companies, about the idea of "death panels."  They falsely claim that a committee will decide whether to care for the sick and the old or to let them die.  There is no such item in the Obama plan.  But the point that most of these people are missing is that that already exists in every private insurance company.  Maybe not literally, but the idea that a beaurocrat standing between you and your doctor isn't new and just now being proposed.  If you have an HMO, you always have to cross your fingers that your insurance will cover whatever you need.  Think about the dentist as an example.  There's always some insurance guy who decides whether you need a procedure or it's purely cosmetic.  You never know what they'll cover and what they won't.  It's a racket.

So no one's out to kill Sarah Palin's retard baby.  Except the eskimos.  It's not their fault.  They think it's a seal.

But I just don't get the level of outrage people are showing (and that's why I started this blog).  And guess who it always is?  Old white people.  Did somebody forget to eat their bran this morning?  What the fuck do you have to complain about?  Did they cancel Murder She Wrote again?!  And people are even bringing guns to protests.  What the fuck!  What for???  You gonna shoot somebody if you don't get your way?  You exercising your rights?  Just because the 1st and 2nd Ammendents are next to each other sequentially doesn't mean they go together.

Late Thought: Could somebody please taze these motherfuckers?!!!

People are going nuts, man, at least 4 years too late.  After all the bullshit we've been through as a country, and I've written plenty about it already, people are getting this upset about someone trying to fix health care.  Obama's trying to do something good.  You can argue the here's and there's but in a sane and logical way.  But if you take your cues from Glenn Beck and Faux News, then you're fucked anyway.

I don't have all the answers, kids, but neither do those assholes.  I think as long as you keep that in mind, you'll end up doing the right thing in the end.  You'll be forced to think.  A wild idea indeed.  Could get some people in trouble.  Especially when they realize they've got shit for brains.  And you thought the Scarecrow had it bad...

:-P  Pbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbth!!!
