So many of us are tired and disillusioned with our nation and the world under George Bush. We stood naked and vulnerable in the ruble of September 11th. We turned against each other. Those who looked like our attackers were rounded up and tossed into the hell of hatred and paranoia. We looked at our neighbors with suspicions of loyalty and patriotism. We allowed our leaders to use fears and lies to commit our nation to war with a people that did not attack us. How many innocent fathers, mothers, brothers, sister, those just trying to live an honest life are dead now? Because of our actions how many generations will be scared with the demons of war.
Our government stood by as Neighborhoods were scattered by the winds of a hurricane and left to find their own way home. Today we stand at an abyss, our only option, too jump. But jump into what? Into debt? Debt that will stand in the way of our hope for a better America. One where health care is a human right and abundant alternative energy fuels an economic renaissance.
And now as if all this was not enough. We learn today Clay Aiken is Gay.
