18. It's a bit like being one of the few sober people partying inside a burning house.

The "American Idol" "People Magazine" pop-star kind of advocacy - almost totally bereft of principle and firm democratic values - inundates this forum. Some of the most simplistic, anal crap I've seen. We applaud LIARS and FRAUDS while sneering at the rare honest politicians with the gonads to stand up and be counted.

Well... I said it before and I'll say it again. Conditions in this country are going to get LOTS worse before they get better. The crew is drunk at the bar while the Titanic sinks. We're getting the kind of government we deserve as a nation. Until we're bleeding in the streets and bringing justice to war criminals and torturers, we're nothing but a nation of cowards and outlaws.

We treat the "political process" like Vick's friends treat dog-fighting ... with even less class.

Our children and grandchildren should piss on our graves ... and spit after mentioning our names.
