Time for a wake-up call.

Just imagine how much better the American economy would be if we had never started wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Or if the super rich hadn’t been given tax cuts. Oh, yes, we average Americans would be so much better off. George Bush and the Republicans, primarily, did us in. And the irony of it all is that Republicans are blaming the terrible economy on Barack Obama. Because he’s the president now. Doesn’t matter that Obama and the Democrats inherited a colossal smelly dung heap from Bush and the Republicans. And a big chunk of American society has fallen for the bull shit flowing in torrents out of Republican mouths. Yes, gross stupidity prevails in the land. We are a very ignorant people. That includes the poor and the middle class. The ones being hurt the most by the debacle. Maybe it's an indictment of our educational system. And our irresponsible media, too. Some how, some way, many of us are missing the truth. We are being bamboozled. Suckered. Lulled to sleep. My gawd! It’s time that we Americans had a wake-up call. –Jim Broede
