"The comforting ceremonies of everyday life seem to continue. The freeways are still full of cars. Nancy Grace comes on TV dependably at 8 p.m. and is there deploring the latest pervert arrest.
But there's an equally eerie vibe out there that things are seriously out-of-whack. We're on the edge of something. We're at the entrance of a dark passage where some of the ceremonies of daily life meet resistance. You go to the WalMart and five of your six credit cards are refused. Uh oh. It begins to dawn on you that you're spending a quarter of your take-home pay filling up the gas-tank every week.
Events are not through with us this year. They'll keep moving where they will whether we believe in them or not. I'm hardly even convinced that it matters who wins the presidential race this year. It could end up being the world's biggest booby prize."

Well,
I could go on and on about how you've royally FUCKED us up GW, but I kinda like the source which calls us a cluster fuck nation. And now all this fuss about the Wright thing. Hell, I watched the full Moyer's report and I'd be proud to go to a church like that.
It's gonna get worse folks. Gas is so high that people can't afford to go to work. Groceries are so high that people can't afford to eat healthy. Guess what the rest of the world? We ARE a nation of fat fucks because the man doesn't want us to live to draw Social Security. Maybe you will be one of the lucky few who has health care to pay for his/her bypass surgery. Oh, and we still have a war based on a LIE that is drain...
