I'm up for a good secedin'.The health care bill passed....
Oh god, we are fucked. IMHO this is the first of many steps on a long, slippery slope to socialism. And I'm not a socialist.
Spectre, help
Our politicians are stupid and deserve to be thrown out of office. I only know a handful of people who actually wanted this--most of the rest of the people I know hate the idea. (Then again, I am in Texas...) EyeMWing's summary seems pretty accurate. Most politicians represent themselves and nobody else nowadays. A lot of 'em deserve to be deported...preferably to a third-world country with no working toilets.
< would post in the politics forum, but that place scares me. seriously, it's worse than the TG one when new episodes are out. all screamy and fighty. { shudders } so, feel free to ignore this post if it's too politimacal.
<< also hates the nasty way politics are usually discussed nowadays, both on and off the boards. I'm sure I'll hear about "communism" and "socialism" and all manner of reactionary talk radio talking points out of my dad, but point is: a lot of us don't want it. that's not communism per se - that's the action of a government that's completely out of touch with the people it's supposed to represent. I can't stand to discuss political anything with very many people nowadays because everyone's so damn nasty about the way they categorize the people they don't agree with.
