I guess George Carlin was right about the US having owners.

This vote on guns just put me over the edge on this. I always try to believe that there are people like Senator Sanders how have the public interest at heart but I guess I was wrong. I guess he and a few others are the exceptions to the rule. Just completely depressing and disgusting. Yes I know some of you will think where have you been, but I guess I held out hope. Well I don't have hope in Washington DC anymore. The system is broken. When the least controversial part of the bill can't pass then you know the owners really do own this country.

1. I wish that I could disagree with you, but I can't, cuz it couldn't be plainer

that most our elected rep's have sold us out,
that our democracy has been bought, lock, stock
and barrel.

5. He was right...so was Bill Hicks and Lenny Bruce, among others.

Many a truth spoken in jest and all that.

7. One of my favorite Lenny Bruce lines;

"If Jesus had appeared 30 years ago, we would all be wearing little electric chairs around our necks."

That's Karl, not Groucho.
