i'm watching...

the daily show and this guy Richard Engel just said something about the President saying something like we wouldn't know if the war on terror was a success for at least 40 years - and then he talked about the cold war - said it took us at least that long to know if it was a success - I assume he means the fall of the berlin wall and the collapse of Russia - how is this success?
i guess walls going down are good - but look at how we're doing over here on the winning side - what the cold war cost us - what the war on terror is costing us - is incalcuable - we have been on a wartime economy since WWII - this is insane - the scarcity is manufactured - your universal heathcare is being made into a bomb as we speak - your solar power conversion is paying blackwater's salary -
if we feed the world won't they just crowd up the beaches?
i mean if this is what success looks like i'd hate be failure
and i suppose russia is worse.
and we're supposed to feel good about that?
about being responsible for that?
or that maybe they were/are some kind of democracy/republic/something?
we are becoming a soviet style police state.
don't believe me - refuse to show yr papers at the airport.
who won the cold war?
and while i'm ranting -
we are not all americans first
fuckabuncha republicans - really
i don't love the democrats -
obama is no saint -
but seriously
if you aided and abetted
the criminals in this administrations
even if only by self identifying with
their party
well then
just fuck you
i find myself
yelling
yelling
at the tv
every time
McCain is on
yelling
like i never yelled
at O'Reilly
like i never yelled
at Rush
muttering under my breath
coughing it out
crazy like
