Rantings Of A Mad Rodent

When you see Americans finishing last in worldwide polls that measure matters of common sense and intelligence, do you ever wonder how? I mean, we have some very brilliant people in this country, so how come we keep coming in last in these studies? I use to wonder that, but in the last 9 years, that little mystery kinda cleared itself up.

We have greedy ass old people wrecking town hall meetings trying to stop this "government run health care", even though they get Medicare and Medicaid. They're also saying that they don't want any socialist programs, even though they're receiving social security, a program that was modeled after a German socialist program. Why are they protesting against something that they already get themselve? Good question. We also have people against Obama's healthcare plan, just because they were told to. Nevermind the fact that most of these people are without health insurance. One ignorant ass lady said, "My deductable is $5000, and I don't want Obama messing that up." What?!! Obama even look directly into the camera and said, "If you like your current plan, you get to keep it.". What were the responses of the scared stupid Americans? "He's trying to take away my plan!". Can't you just smell the brilliance?

We had parents who were so mad that Obama's speech to school kids would be broadcast to students, that threatened to pull their kids out of school. You know, the usual "Eat your veggies and stay in school" line Presidents say to school kids? But now it seems that scared white people have been convinced that this speech is going to be a "brainwashing session". Even whole school districts were refusing to show it. Are you fucking kidding me?! You honest think that the President would get on camera and try to tell kids some shit that even you frightened ass racist parents don't understand? Don't you find it funny, that the parents who are concerned that their kids are going to be brainwashed, have been brainwashed themselves? "They've awakened a sleeping giant!", huh? Oddly enough, that "giant" was sleeping peacefully when the country was being run into the ground by the Bush administration.

Osama bin Laden and 11 other men from Saudi Arabia, with support from the Taliban in Afghanistan, attacked us on 9/11. We invaded Iraq. To this day, there are seemingly intelligent adults who still think that Sadam Hussain was behind the 9/11 attacks, even though there is concrete proof that he wasn't. Those who mentioned this fact, were called traitors and anti American by the stupid scared Americans. France saw through the rouse, and refused to participate. The stupid scared Americans responded by renaming french fries "freedom fries". We were so scared and stupid, that we willingly gave up our constitutional rights. Americans like to play the "founding fathers" card, when they want to justify doing something evil like the Patriot Act, but somehow, Ben Franklin's quote: "Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety deserve neither Liberty nor Safety", doesn't seem to get mentioned. Wrong founding father I suppose. I guess they meant the one who said it was okay for them to wipe their collective asses with the Constitution.

Since "soccer moms" was already taken, Pres. Bush came up with "NASCAR dads", and now you have unemployed white men with no jobs or health insurance thinking they're Republicans! Then there was fight to put copies of the Ten Commandments in every government building. The proponents said that this country was built on the Ten Commandments, they just never mentioned that they broke every last one of them to build it! Americans specialize in short memories and stupidity.

And now we have the latest attraction in the main ring, the Tea Baggers and the Sarah Palin fanclub. Cue up the music and pass the cotton candy.
