Frustrated to the max..

Give the benefit of the doubt....be polite....suffer in silence....stick your head in the sand....hope for the best....trust your government....say your prayers.... . Right. And as citizens, get your ass kicked until your nose bleeds. And still we refuse to pay attention if the news doesn't involve sex or murder. Or both at once. Especially with celebrities. Give 'em bread and circuses, and you can do anything and get away with it. Does it work? Watch TV news and see. Here are Bush and Putin meeting in Russia, and what does the caption on the picture on the front page say? "Bush drives Putin's car" (whatever it is) and there they are in a shot taken as car proceeds toward camera. OH! That's important to know, all right.

There are folks out in this countryside who are so frustrated with today's ignored facts, they can barely stand to be civil. Here's one of them:

What is going on in our country? Everyone in the world, and in the United States, except apparently for members of the Altogether Loony Churches Association, has to be aware that Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld/Rice et al are clearly guilty of WAR CRIMES. Members of the House of Representatives, unless they are stupid or uninformed beyond belief have to know this. Members of the Senate also have to be aware of this. There is plenty of evidence, hard evidence, that this is so. So why does nothing happen? Why are members of the House not talking impeachment? Why do leaders of other nations continue to meet with Bush as though he is somehow legitimate? Why have people not taken to the streets in huge numbers to demand justice? Or at least a change of Administrations?

I cannot believe the deplorable state my country has fallen into. I cannot believe there are apparently NO honorable politicians in either party. Why do they go on endlessly turning a blind eye (if not a sympathetic one)to scandals being constantly covered up? Why do they not speak out against the litany of lies that emanate from the Bush/Cheney Administration?Is my memory so bad that I cannot remember what actually happened in the last four years? Was it not the case that the Supreme Court, considering the controversy of Cheney's secret energy meetings, returned the matter of the lower court for a decision? And did the whole matter subsequently just disappear? Do you remember hearing anything more about it? Did they in fact act on it? As far as I know they did not. Why not?What about the Plame case? What about Gannon/Guckert? What about the 9/11 questions? What about Sibel Edmonds? What about the Bush/Blair conspiracy to attack Iraq and manufacture false reasons for doing so? What about Falluja? Torture? The permanent U.S. bases being built in Iraq against their wishes? What about the de facto civil war raging in that unfortunate country, in which U.S. troops are playing a part? What about the cost of continuing in Iraq? What about..., What about...,

Has a majority of U.S. citizens simply gone stark, raving mad? How can we stand for this? What is the matter with everyone? Have the Fascists already won? When can we expect our daily ration of black bread and water? All hail your eminence, Lord of all, Master of the Universe, Divine Messenger of God, Masta belong mipela, King of Kings, Emperor of the World, Wisest of the Wise, Conqueror of all, and whatever.

God! What a mess!!
