Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
A letter in the Marion newspaper...
Apparently, it is all my fault. Well, mine and every other Liberal, Witch, Gay/Lesbian baby killer, tree hugger. It is our fault that Hurricane Katrina wreaked the havoc that she did. It is our fault that this country is going to hell in a hand basket. It is our fault that the God Fearing President George W. Bush can’t adequately do his job, because we all just hate him so! It is not his fault. It is not global warming or any other scientific theory. It was the Liberals. We did it.
I must have missed that meeting.
Seriously, is this woman’s brain wired backwards or what? I would post the exact letter, but the paper doesn’t have letters on their on-line edition, and I didn’t keep the copy of the paper, it was my friend Juli’s.
This lady is just as whacked out as Pat Robertson when he said it was the baby eating Lesbian Witches fault that the terrorists flew planes into the World Trade Center towers! Sheesh! We just can’t get a break no matter which way we look.
As someone said today, they’re getting fewer in numbers, so those whack jobs that are left are screaming even louder. And it gets more mind numbingly teeth crunchingly maddening every day! Where do they get these ideas? Since when is being “liberal” akin to infanticide and debauchery?
This is all just too much for my little Canadian brain to fathom. I mean to me, Liberal is a political party. Not a cuss word. I don’t understand how the label of “liberal” (as said with the conservative contemptible sneer) is meant to be the epithet that it is. It’s as if 5 of the 6 definitions of the word in the Merriam Webster dictionary (an American publication!) do not exist here. The only one that pertains to how the word is used here is an obsolete definition: “lacks moral restraint”. It’s a bad word here. Tossed around to try and make people with open minds feel bad, and to make the “conservative Christian right” people feel superior. Left. Right. Liberal. Conservative. UGH! Pass the Tylenol.
She also said that we Liberals should all stop complaining about Bush and what he’s done (or not done) to help the disaster regions in the south, because by golly, the Liberals have done absolutely nothing to help out.! We’ve just sat back and watched them all die! I guess she missed seeing Sean Penn on the news, up to his waste in sewage contaminated flood waters rescuing people. Or maybe she did see him, and figures that he’s converted now, and he came to his senses so that’s why he’s out helping people now. Of course I didn’t make the TV news when I volunteered to help out and donated all those clothes. And all that food, water and first aid supplies. And dog food and cat food. And money…and and and….Not that I do any of that to get on the news. Or even for any recognition other than the pat on the back I give myself. But for ANYONE to say that a particularly loathsome group of others does NOTHING to help EVER, is just incredibly small minded and hateful. And rather ignorant to say the least. She doesn’t get out much I guess.
This country, this the richest of the superpowers in the world, is so divided and divisive, it’s frightening. The Government trying to pass laws and constitutional amendments that TAKE AWAY human rights from minority groups. The monied few getting richer and the working poor getting hungrier. And the religious divide getting wider than the parting of the Red Sea.
It just makes me want to laugh. Then vomit. Then hide in the closet and cry. This shouldn’t be happening here in the land of the free, home of the brave. Pffffffffffft.
Well, I guess I’ll go cook a nice chunky baby for my dinner, and then go do another hurricane rain dance under the moonlight. Heck, if they’re gonna blame me for it…
