I'm Awake!

A week or so ago, Melissa Etheridge did a great set at the Live Earth concert. She gave a scathing oration about the Bush administration and all the shit that can be attributed to them. (I have posted the YouTube videos on this blog.) I loved every second of it. Etheridge provoked everyone to tell people, "I'm awake!" in an effort to "scare the hell" out of the Bush administration.

And this week, perhaps more than I have in quite some time, I am unbelievably pissed off at Bush and his cronies. Does he not think anyone is listening anymore? Why are people just sitting back and letting Bush get away with criminal behavior? Are we all asleep or something? This is ridiculous.

I'M AWAKE!

We are hearing new reports about Al Qaeda being stronger than ever. Am I concerned? No. Do I know anyone that is? No. Why? Because no one cares what this administration has to say anymore. We are so sick of the lies and constant stubborness of Bush, we aren't paying attention anymore. No one cares. And I'm no expert and have done absolutely no research on the subject but I see no reason why another terrorist attack - here or abroad is not imminent. London just had one. There will be another one. Should I be afraid? Hell no. Bush has tried to scare us all into submissive robots willing to submit to whatever he wishes so he can violate the constitution and international human rights in order to spread "democracy," "freedom," and "Christianity" to a country that not only doesn't want it but doesn't need it.

I'M AWAKE!

And I'm pissed off. Bush also put the breaks on some bill that he says promotes "socialized medicine." Yeah do you know how horrible this place would be if we were able to have guarenteed free medical care. A hell hole thats what. An organized, healthy, comfortable hell hole. Now who would want that?

I'M AWAKE!

I can't do this anymore. We need something to happen here. And the really great thing is our congress is taking a month long vacation and the war will have to be put on hold until September. September! Are you fucking kidding me? You're just going to let this thing keep going, and keep innocent people dying, and keep Al Qaeda growing stronger for another month! I hope you enjoy sipping your pina colada on a beach in the Carribean while millions suffer from this pointless war. You people make me sick.

I'M AWAKE! Are you?
