That'll Teach 'Em!Our elected representatives finally caved. In order to avoid being called nasty names, being told that they're playing into the hands of the terrorists, being told, "Nanny, nanny, boo-boo, you're just a big pussy!", they've placed their cajones on the table and passed a macho bill that allows our pResident to conduct horrible indignities on anyone he wishes. Oops, that's not what it authorizes, is it, since that's what he's been doing for years already? What it authorizes is that he can remain free from incarceration for a little while longer after having broken numerous national and international laws in his handling of "suspected terrorists."
We've finally crept into September, less than two months from that wonderful day that we can go to the polls and give these criminals their comeuppance. Now the American people can stand up and be counted! Let's make a clean sweep--grab a list of the "Representatives" who failed to represent their constituents (the ones who who called, e-mailed, faxed, and used any other available method of communication to try to let these cretins know that we, the American people, are totally against the ideals represented in this bill), and vote them out of power!
Let's sweep out all the corporate-controlled Republican representatives, and create a mandate to install corporate-controlled Democratic representatives who will actually represent the will of their constituents. (Well, that is, unless it goes against the will of their true bosses, the corporations who allowed them to go to Washington in the first place.)
So, let's get our butts to the polls and make our wishes known! Sweep out the old criminals, and install some new ones. Don't let it bother you that whatever votes you cast are totally at the mercy of these same corporations, under the guise of the arm that manufactures the paperless, touchscreen, secret-software-controlled voting machines.
That'll teach 'em!
