I should learn to stay away from political news. Lately, it just irritates the fuck out of me. I'm sick to death of hearing about media whore Sarah Palin, shit talking Rush Limbaugh, douchebag Glenn Beck, and asshat Bill O'Reilly. These fools just spew venom, hate, and so many lies; yet are allowed to continue unabated, without the slightest bit of control. FOX News is an agent of the Devil, I'm sure of it!
I really wish politicians would focus on the important issues facing this country...both Democrats and Republicans need to drop this bi-partisan charade of finger-pointing and blaming everyone except themselves. Warmonger Bush was allowed to go for eight fucking years without one peep of opposition...or if there was any opposition, the media didn't pay attention to them. Now, we have Teabaggers consisting of nothing but fat, lazy, clueless idiots who will blindly follow some dickhead like sheep. Why can't people think for themselves???
I'm sick to death of the political pandering by the Religious Right working so tirelessly to erode the Rights of their fellow Americans simply because these people do not fit the social standard of "normal". I'm talking about GLBT Americans. People like to spout how great this country is, how free we are, and how we are a beacon of light in an otherwise dark forest of evil. FUCK THAT. America is not so great when gays and lesbians are treated like second class citizens, where laws are created to prevent gays and lesbians from legally declaring their love for one another, where the rights of gays and lesbians are continuously trampled in the name of God. Groups like Focus on the Family and the Family Research Council are evil and must be stopped. Their reason for attacking (and yes, they are ATTACKING gays and lesbians) is homosexuals are "unnatural", "immoral", and they ride on the same tired old slogan "If they can't reproduce, then they must recruit". Yeah, right...cuz everyone knows we get a free toaster oven for every "recruit" we bring into Gayness. Why are these people so obsessed with homosexuals??? Science tells us that the most homophobic people are indeed homosexuals themselves. Something tells me that if James Dobson (founder of Focus on the Family) got pounded up the ass then maybe that perpetual STICK shoved up there might be dislodged.
These so-called "Christian" groups need to focus on the TRUE meaning of Christ...love, compassion, and empathy for thy fellow neighbor. As such, these groups are NOT Christian in any way, shape of form...they are tax havens, money shelters, and HATE GROUPS. Any group that works tirelessly to bring about the downfall of another group is full of nothing but hate, scorn, and they should be ashamed. But, unfortunately, the blind sheeple voters are so misguided and fall for scare tactics established by these "Christian" groups. It sickens me. It's disgusting, and it makes me sorry to be an American. When thinly veiled bigoted laws such as "Amendment 2" and "Proposition 8" pass is so called "progressive" states such as Florida and California, then it really shows just how far we still have to go as a nation. When special interest politicians focus more on passing laws to ensure only "family friendly" films are made in Florida instead of solving the real problems, then we're doomed to implode from within.
So, no...America is NOT the greatest country in the world. We the US can get over it's Puritanical roots and realize that ALL are indeed created equal, then we will be great. Right now, we are viewed as uptight, ultra-conservative, hypocritical bigots run by the Bible thumpers...the truth hurts.

The Far Right - NOT For the People...
Senator Jim Bunning (R-KY) is everything that is wrong with the Republican Party; rich, old, White, and male. Thus, it's no surprise Bunning keeps using the Filibuster to stop unemployment benefits for Americans...some even in his OWN home state. Bunning's rationale for hurting Americans: “We cannot keep adding to the debt,” Mr. Bunning said Monday. “It’s over $14 trillion and going up fast.”
Really, Mr. Bunning? Where was your "fiscal conservatism" during the 8 years the Warmonger GW Bush dragged us into TWO costly wars, borrowed billions from China, and extended tax cuts to the top 1% of millionaires? Where were your concerns when it became evident that there were NO weapons of mass destruction, yet Bush demanded MORE money to fight his oil war? Finally, where were you when Bush handed out expensive defense contracts to his cronies at Halliburton without even a bid???
Dickheads like Bunning do not care about the American people. They are AGAINST making the USA a better place to live. He'd rather we go into further debt by staying in unwinnable wars. I thought Conservatives were "Pro-Life", but I was wrong...Conservatives such as Bunning are NOT Pro-Life. If they were, they'd be demanding we end this stupid "War on Terror" where 6,000 Americans have lost their life fighting a war for OIL. They'd be demanding that we STOP borrowing from China. Finally, they would demand helping the American PEOPLE better their way of life, instead of running them thru the hot coals simply because they can't find a job...A job that was OUTSOURCED by the Conservative Presidency to India.
I'm mad as hell. However, people like Bunning don't fucking care. After all, HE still has a job, HE is still getting paid, and HE is still a douchebag Asshat who has lost touch with his constituents. Then again, this is his last term as a Senator...guess he better fuck up the lives of more people before he leaves.
Why must the majority of Americans be held hostage by the outdated principals of the least populated states in this country? Why do we have to care about what some idiot from Kentucky or Utah says? Why are we even listening to these backwoods hicks??? Florida is not the best state in the Union...hell, we're even being held hostage by the likes of "Focus on the Family" feeling they need to stick their nose in the personal lives of consenting adults; pushing their sad, archaic agenda on the voting ballot...but at least in Florida, we have a healthy opposition giving these clowns a run for their money. I'm not sure that I can say the same about Kentucky and Utah...sigh...
