I am feeling less represented than when Bushco was in office
Before you flare your nostrils, Obama on his worst day is light years better than Bush on his best day. And thisn post has nothing to do with him at all.

This has to do with the Supremes.

Think about that decision. There is simply no fucking way on earth the people's votes matter. We can never hope to keep up with the spending of even one corporation, let alone all of them.

We're really sorta fucked, dontcha think?

7. Probably a great deal of people don't have the income to keep being obedient customers...
Decision made for many, I'd think, myself included. :yoiks:

6. Let's not forget to thank the Dems who wanted to play nice & bipartisan by NOT opposing
the nominations of Alito and Roberts.

I know *I* won't forget! :grr:

8. we've got supreme troubles
"I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead, some come from behind.
But I've bought a big bat. I'm all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have trouble w/ me"

Where is Dr Seuss when we need him....or that cat in the hat? We've got troubles for sure w/ this and w/ that!

Personally I am tired of green eggs and ham. Too much pork and not enough protein.

Jim Wallis is right....we have lost our moral compass... obviously as Gordon Gecko is alive and well and has been cloned in wall street 'cause apparently "greed is good" or is that "greed is God"

Hang in there Stinky...maybe someday we'll all find out "where did our love go?"
