I like me some Obama but he said something recently that severely upset me. He said he believes in American's ability to draw together and work for the future...
Um really - no really...REALLY? What America is HE talking about? The reason we're in 90% of the bullshit we are right now was because of the shortsighted, greedy, stupid, ignorant, racist, fanatical, over-zealous, nationalistic, imperialist, war-mongering, vindictive, fear based actions of American's in the 20th Century. The next Prez needs to fix the NOW right NOW because I'm not interested in hearing how I need to sacrifice and pitch in. Hell no! I didn't destroy the ozone layer! I didn't melt the ice caps! I didn't play craps with someone's pension fund, I didn't send 1000's of American's to die in wars we have nothing to gain from, I didn't send our manufacturing industries to China or Pakistan, I didn't avoid alternative energy sources so my fat cat friends can make cash on unsustainable fuel, I didn't fuck up the airline and auto indusrties and I certainly DIDN'T create the cluster fuck the banks have put us in! So why the HELL would I pitch in for the greater good when it's never been "American" to do so. Dear Mr. Future President - please put band aids and quick fixes on everything that will make some of us enough money so our cushion can insure we don't have to worry about the next time the shit hits the fan. Oh and don't expect us to "pitch in" or "sacrifice". It's just Un-American.
