facebook, ah facebook... can be a bit much....

I have a disgusting ad on my facebook page. It is a pic of Ronnie the Ruiner (dressed as a cowboy, of course), put there by a bunch of screaming nutsies (the man who started it is shown screaming in his rather disgusting photo) who obviously weren’t watching as he took the country down, and began the republican/PNAC lovely idea to really ruin the country, so that they could get together with 'leaders' in other countries and I suppose they felt: Rule the World.

What a shame that a group of old white men seem to think they can run the country any way they want. Yet they are elected by a tiny minority of ‘the people,’ as they are allowed the same two senators from the states with the smallest population that we are allowed in the states with the largest population. So MANY of the senators sitting in Congress screaming "NO" and "YOU LIE" and other nasty remarks are elected by a minority of the people of our country. And you may have noticed that the Senate is where things get stuck -- things usually desired by the majority of the people in this country. The old white men elected by the minority of the people of the U.S. will do anything to keep anything attempted for the good of the majority from going through. (Interesting... I highlighted the whole thing, but this would not go to red... very weird!)

Yet they feel they should run the country and hold up decent bills that would be best for us, the majority, who want them. Please notice the difference in the House, where people are elected by the majority of the populace. If they had been heard and been allowed to send their bill to the president at the beginning of the health care debate, we would have universal health care by now. Only the minority of the people are holding this up.

Don't listen to them, or allow them to rule the country by their delaying and underhanded tactics. Get out the vote in your state, sign people up... make sure this rotten minority doesn't take over again. And be sure to VOTE yourself. Remember, as the republicans used to remind us almost daily, the majority does rule... but we must VOTE, in the Primaries and in the General Elections.

And one last little comment... I am so happy to finally have someone in the White House who knows the name of our country, and doesn't say "...and god bless Amurica," but says it correctly:... "God bless the United States of America."
