An open letter to conservative "libertarian" blue collar idiots.

[angrycarpenter]

There was once a time when I thought that Americans were really starting to wise up, that the recent economic catastrophe just might make a few rethink their worshipful attitude for the parasites up on Wall Street. I had the foolish hope that America just might move a little back from becoming willing serfs to those ivory tower dwelling monsters who sold out our entire country for short term gain. But it seems that the angriest people in America, those who have been victimized the same as the rest of us have done as they always do, condemn the puppets while kissing the feet of the puppeteers.

I am simply getting too tired to continue to beat my head up against your ignorance and hate any more. The simple futility of trying to illuminate the dark abyss that is American conservative thought is making me old before my time. So rather than trying to educate the terminally ignorant any more I will simply curse you with your fondest wishes.

If you kill public education I wish that your ignorant uneducated offspring continue to live off of you for the rest of their lives.

If you kill health reform I hope that you end up buried under a mountain of debt with no way on earth to avoid losing everything you own.

If you kill financial reform I hope you lose every hard earned dollar you dare invest to keep a roof over your head when you get old.

If you drive the unions out of your work place I hope the whole place gets sold off to China the next day.

I hope those bankers whom you worship as the gods of holy capitalism take you for everything you are worth and then some.

I hope those republican obstructionists you vote for sell you out to the highest bidder and then laugh in your stupid face and say "What did you expect?"

In short I hope you get the short end of every wish you have should it come to pass, and you will. The working man has been under attack in this country for decades and for taking the side of those who ruin lives for the sake of a quick buck you deserve the very worst of what is to come.

You want to kill the government? If so you deserve every tainted bite of food, every unsafe job, every pay cut, every outrageous medical bill, every unfair rate hike, every unsafe car, every bad road, and every merciless corporate ripoff you get. Kill the only entity with the power to stand up for us? You deserve to be slaves to Wall Street, enjoy your servitude, we who would be free from both government and corporate enslavement will try to save your sorry asses in spite of you.

Do I sound bitter? Your continuous death wish for our society and our planet helped make me that way.
Do I not sound like the weak willed tolerant stereotype of a liberal you are fond of despising? Well this is what your attitude has done to our country. If you do not respect reason maybe you will respect a little good old fashioned spite.

4. Great rant!

Now, to figure out how to persuade them to pull their heads out of their asses.

It can be done. It's fun when you actually get to do it. But it's about as easy as skyscraper climbing al fresco*.
