We Are The Deciders

Today, the Congress is still watering down another version of a non- binding gesture that they want to send to Bush--instead of something that would obligate the Dictator to "own the wars" he started, and get out of Iraq now. Instead of listening to either the voters in November or to the new so-called Congress-the self- professed 'decider' has chosen to not only add troops in Iraq, but he is stepping up his efforts to provoke yet another phony war: this time with Iran. He obviously thinks he is secure in blasting his way through his own permanently failed diplomatic gestures, while his thugs continue to churn out the same tired lies and innuendos that he and his criminal cabal generated to get into Iraq in the first place. The self-appointed one has forgotten that he took an oath to protect and defend Americans first: an oath that would include keeping his promises on Katrina, making sure that Americans had jobs and that their retirements would be protected from government's unending appetite to steal their benefits that they earned over a lifetime of work. Not to mention a fair and affordable way to obtain medical care (not just access to insurance); a believable education for our children, not just a bunch of slogans with no money that are turning American youth into idiots with no past, no present possibilities, and especially no future! What the hell is going on in this nation-have we no say in anything that this so-called government is doing in any area of our lives? People here, just like people almost everywhere else are entitled to live their lives free from the corrupt government interference that each of us must navigate through ­ just "to live another day"! These things may seem small individually, but collectively they comprise the destruction of the Republic and the end of a way of life! This government obviously sees all of this from exactly the opposite position: some even see this as the birth pangs of a glorious New Empire. But when the celebrations end and reality returns; it appears that all that has been accomplished is the selling of America to the blood-lust of AIPAC, and to the New World Order--as only the latest burnt offering of yet another failed state to bolster their grip on the rest of the world. "Entitlements" are one thing, but the theft of this democracy, this way of life, and of this form of government are not things that any nation worth the name can tolerate for long.
