It makes me sit back and wonder, what the hell is our freedom? Sure we have the right to vote, but it seems as of late we end up with a man that is so wet behind the ears that he needs to holds daddy's hand to run this country. Without his father at his side, he sees this country as a huge game board and w are all the pawns. He wilfully puts our men and women on the front line, just so he can look like some big shot. They too have families that love them and would like them back alive, in one piece, instead of having their family members going to a morgue to identify them, or worse yet, receive a military man at the door stating they are dead. As far as I can see, all George W. Bush wants to do, is not run this country with pride and honor, he wants to cause fights, pressure others, and make wars that kill masses of the innocent. He had the balls to go to congress to ask for trillion more dollars to continue his game playing.
Men and women all over this nation, as well as the world, work their asses off for completely nothing. In the United States, many middle Americans work tirelessly, giving up vacations, family time, sick days, and days off. Many companies and corporations say that they are for the family man/woman, and will bend with them in all they can do, when what they are really saying is to hell with the ones at home, you are married to me now and I want all your time and money. Everything looks good on paper, till you read the fine print. Goddess forbid if a single parent actually had a emergency at home and had to take time off, that is a no no and usually the worker is frowned down upon, all just to put more money in that employers pocket so they might have a grander car, and a bigger house.
The picture perfect family is a house with a white picket fence,parents without worries, 2 kids, a boy and girl, one dog and one cat. When the reality in most homes is a home with 2-3 kids, parents worried how they will make it to next week and put food on the table, while getting all the odds and end their kids need. A lot of people may look at my thoughts and say, 'well you did bring it upon yourselves' I say you are dead wrong. Sure, there are ways we in middle America could make adjustments here and there to make the little bit of dollar that Uncle Sam does not steal from us, stretch, but when you have a jackass in office running this country of ours, destroying basically a entire country in war, then spending the money to fix it up, or feeding third world children, when we have out own homeless children starving and dying in the streets, hell yeah it pisses me off. I am a mother of 4 and will see no child go without, do not get me wrong there, but we do have our own country to deal with and people to help, without being a damned show off for the rest of the world, while under command of a idiot that don't know his ass from a hole in the ground.
Thank you for taking the time to read my rants, and for all of you that give a damn to make this country better and for all of those around the world that actually give a damn about bettering themselves and where they live, I loudly applaud you!
