Help Me to Stop Caring
Advertisements [?]
A man I once looked up to my entire life just called me a communist today. I watch as the ignorant hordes of easily manipulated masses are poised to allow the wolves to feed upon them once more after this year's midterms. And as they are being fed upon, the pain they will feel will be blamed on those who tried to help them. What happened to America? We live in an age where truth is literally at your fingertips yet no one bothers to look. No one checks the facts of those who would deceive. I'm not a patriot because I love my country and don't want to see it's less fortunate suffer, I'm a marxist terrorist who wants to kill babies. The good (not great....sorry) man I elected President is so frightened and our party so weak, that we have more conservatism to look forward to. The burning earth will be put on the back burner, we liberals will be further vilianized for our very thoughts, Fox's ratings will climb, and the rich will feast on it all.

I'm sorry to all who read this. Un-rec it to your hearts content. I've had a really bad day and I just don't want to see the great American people do something so stupid again. I moved here to Costa Rica days after I learned we were torturing people. TORTURING PEOPLE for eff sakes... US! And yet, when the wingnuts get the House back, Obama will be impeached for whatever convoluted reason they can think of. Speaker Boener will be a reality, Bachmann will be a Committee Chair.

Help!! I just want to turn it off and stop caring about it. I want to become a-political. I want to be more enthralled by American Idol than American government. Does anyone seriously have any advice short of starting a smack habit?
