Even basic decency is no longer demanded in this nation.

[sicksicksick_N_tired]

A relative handful of power-mongering thugs have spent a LOT of MONEY to destroy both the values and ideals of democracy in this nation.

Osama bin Laden helped them by being the "boogey man" they needed.

The neocons wanted to win power, at all costs, and have ObL to thank.

Now, our nation and its people are on their knees. The neocons want to retain power and win at ANY COST.

When the cost ends up being sacrificing this entire nation, will they continue winning at any cost OR will they flee?

Those neocons and their ilk,...are "patriotic",...when it serves THEIR interests. They are and will ALWAYS BE ABSENT if their service is needed to save their nation.

Meanwhile, they are allowed to impose upon basic human decency.

I have no tolerance for thugs.

2. Today's Cons are to most brazen I ever heard of.

There have always been Cons who would try to convince you that you are better off under a powerful and authoritarian government. That they have your best interest at heart and know best how to navigate through dangerous times.

What the Cons don't tell you is that their only real goal is to concentrate power among an elite few, and they really only appreciate you for the work you can do for them, and the hard-earned money you can pay them.

Cons want you weak and afraid, because that is when you are most compliant.

We're not taking it any more!

We will not be afraid.
We will not be slaves to meager wages.
We will elect responsible leaders and demand that they represent us, not the corporate elite.
We will demand REAL JUSTICE!
