Look, I am not a vet. I want to put that out before I get to far into this. I am not the type of person who could stomach the experience and I am so very grateful to those that make such a brave choice.
I do however, have many family members that are. They are proud people and deserving of our thanks.
Today whilst browsing the net for my daily news ingestion, I stumbled across this ...
I think we all have different tastes in music, and it's nice once in a while to get away from the nightly political grind.
In fact I love the notion ... It is what I love most about the DKOS, all the artists, comedians and photographers that reside in this community provide a break for us all.
Hillary was asshole enough to get me thinking straight.
Hillary supporters are welcome aboard to the Obama democratic platform that is almost exactly the same as Hillary's.
It's time to throw Hillary under the bus. Her ilk belongs to this party the same as Joe Lieberman's ilk does. Scorched earth in our party must never be accepted.
I no longer know, who the person is, behind that fantastic make up job she got over a year ago. Don't ask me to fake support for an asshole.
In short, get lost Hillary, you have turned into an asshole.
How can anyone, possibly ask me as a voter, to forgive her bullshit?
It was very time sensitive and relevant to something I thought we all cared about.
AND No, it was not my diary.
But it was a diary that reflected what we are supposed to be about.
And it was blown off as if it didn't matter for shit.
Apparently we all would rather talk about the latest poll, or if Obama was called a black guy, or if Bush pulled another boner, or some new kid decided to vote for one candidate over the other ...
I know what it is like to be labeled one of the Angry Libs, I know what it was like when liberal was a four letter word. Traitor. Unpatriotic. Un-Clean.
A person that looks at the world with a realistic view, that says that all men are created equal. This is the type of person who is incapable of a world view that addresses reality, or ... angry.
F--- you, I am not an angry liberal, I am an Angry American.
Damn your arrogance, go away you Angry Cons!
Thankfully this year is the year for me. I am done with eating freedom fries!
The next president, needs to be able to reach across the aisle.
The next president, needs to unite this country.
The next president, needs to unite their own party.
It doesn't matter if it is McCain, Hillary, or Obama. This is a basic requirement that the vast majority of Americans are crying out for. We want change.
Both parties are in a state of disarray, the country is bitterly divided and left in shambles by the scorched earth policies of the Bush administration.
The Republican rubberstamp domination in the congress, has done great damage to our country.
We need a strong unified government to answer the call, more than ever before.
