Burning Electrons

We elected Barak Obama because we wanted to end these wars.  You know, the ones Bush started with no justification, but he hasn’t done it yet.  Now that the health care bill has been past (whether we think that it was adequate or not) it is time to get back to ending the slaughter of innocent civilians  in Iraq and Afganistan.  In fact, it is time for the US to end ALL military action in that region.  Just take a look at the video on wikileaks.com.  It shows the slaughter of at least 8 adults and two children by helicopter gun ships. (I don’t know whether they were “gun ships”, I just know that they were helicopters with 30 caliber cannons who fired on two newsmen, one of whom was taking a picture of them with a long lens).

Its time to end these wars.  Its time to end all wars except the war on global warming.  A real worthwhile target for all that aggression would be companies who polute our atmosphere and people who deny global warming altogether.

And then I read in the paper this morning that Patty Murray has been receiving death threats because of her vote on the health care bill.  Haven’t these tea-baggers ever heard of the constitution and representative democracy?  We accompliish things in this country tby reasoned debate, or at least that is the way it is supposed to be, but Fox News has corrupted their listeners with so much hate that our form of government is no longer safe.  So put Fox News on the list of things that deserve aggressive action. I mean the goverment needs to start regulating these entertainment stations (they can’t be called news stations) and make sure that they present a fair and reasoned debate with both sides equally represented.  That, at least, is in the realm of what the government should be doing.  They need to protect those of us who still believe in our form of government from the right wing fascists.  I’m sorry for calling them names, but they aren’t Americans and what they espouse sounds like fascism to me.

Enough, its time you grew some cajones and stood up to the right wing in this country.  They really aren’t the majority even if Fox News keeps telling them they are, and yoiur inaction gives weight to their mistaken beliefs.

Do something!! Stop the wars!! Move to a real health care reform, not what the insurance industry forces down our throats so they can pay their CEOs exhorbitant salaries and their execs bonuses. Come On Barak!! Do Something!!
