Melancholly Joy

I cant help but be happy as every republican goes down in a blazing ball of fire and the "minority" of the US pounces on them to attack the wounded animal. I mean who in their right mind still believes these subhuman vermin. These people that lie, cheat, and steal at every turn. Put their own personal interests before the welfare of the country, or fellow countrymen.

It's happiness followed by sadness as I think they damage they've done in 6 years to our Republic may be irrepairable.

People touting the power of the "free market" as GM and Ford lay of thousands of workers in order to pad the pockets of already too wealthy CEO's. The final steps in the institution of a fascist, corporate-friendly economy devoid of worker's rights taking us back to the "Gilded Age" of the 1890's when robber-barons ruled the US and were given a free pass.

We should be ashamed as we are the only industrialized nation that doesnt GUARANTEE healthcare to the our citizens. Noone's going to last forever, but this is a benchmark to measure the evolution of a society or culture, how well they treat their own.

What is it these people have against progress? Why do they want to take us back to the dark annals of American history when women were second class citizens and workers slaves to the owners of corporations? Only fascists would wish to enslave their own people.

I'm Baaaaack...

First of all let me start off saying I have been in the field since Sept 11th (let me tell you not the best date to go) but I had fun training. I love the training. It's when you find the weak links and can work on fixing them. But I guess alot has happened in the political world since I've been gone. I've only been able to keep track through the slightly skewed view of Stars and Stripes. Stars and Stripes doesnt do a bad job, but let's face it their audience isnt exactly the Garofalo and Franken loving types.

So we had a couple of victories for governships, and the Terminators proposals got terminated. The presidents approval rating continues to fall as he just keeps twising himself in the barbed wire that is anything his administration tries to do. This administration has just turned into a blazing ball of fire ready to implode at any moment. It isn't even just the Administration it's the entire fucking political party. Oh I think Johnny Cash said it best, "I fell into a burning ring of fire..." You know how it goes.

My internet is out at home because I havent been home to pay the bill, no telling how long that will take to fix in this country. But my wife left to go to the states to pick up my son and bring him back to us. It's only been two months but it feels like a lifetime since I've seen him. Four to 6 months they sure do grow up alot. I'm dreading neither one of us being around to watch him grow up for one whole year.
Cant wait to see the little man...only two more days...
