I had to turn off ABC’s Extremely sad Home Make Over last night. It makes me angry to think that in this state, in this city which I work, people are that destitute. A 70 year old woman sleeps downstairs with plastic sheets hanging over hallways to keep the cold out. Sad, pathetic and all too telling of the state of our democracy. Karl Marx is probably watching this show and laughing his ass off at us.
At a time where our fucking pResident has spent over HALF A TRILLION (that’s 500,000,000,000.00 people) on a war based on multiple lies (lest you have forgotten) I can’t help but think even 25% of that could have been spent repairing this country. But Praise the Lord (insert Reverend Wright type voice) ohhhhh, Praise the LORRRDDDDD, the Faith based initiatives are gonnnnnnaaaaaaa SAveeeeee us all, eh, we are going to show you what happensssss eh, when the communiiiiiitttttEEEE gets into action eh, when the governmentTTTTTTT takes their hands out of the pot, eh and let’s people decide, eh, let’s them make a difference eh, let’s them take care of their own eh…..
Can I get an Amen?
FUCK YOU!

We have a freaking television show getting hand outs for the needy. What the hell is wrong with this country man? What makes me even sicker is the fact that this show, I’m sure is only on television because it makes money for the network. Once those ratings go away, bye-bye kindness train. The show is an hour long promo for everything Disney, akaThe Make a Wish for a Tragedy foundation.
They have rebuilt homes for flood victims and Iraq war amputees….what the hell does that tell you about our system?
Well as I peruse through the news this AM, on the heels of last night’s show I come across this:
As that freak of nature Ty would say “Welcome Home American Citizens, Welcome home!”
