As I woke up this morning to read the GOP going nuclear in Wisconsin so that they could pass that collective bargaining bill and strip workers of their rights, a rage inside me started to appear. I wanted to scream and lash out at everyone that didn't vote in the mid-term election. I wanted to understand What the FUCK is going on in this country? Has this country gone completely insane? Is this what the country wanted when they went to the polls in november to give the keys back to the GOP? Is this the payback Progressives wanted against the democrats? Did the progressive/liberals/independents dislike obama so much that they allowed these radical fringe lunatics to infiltrate Washington DC as well as governor seats and state houses around the country just to prove a point? Didn’t the Republicans run on the mantra of CREATING JOBS?
As an independent who voted for democrats in the midterm, I politely got my wallet and donated money to the DNC and plan on going to a OFA meeting this weekend to start preparing for the 2012 election. I realized at this moment that this is not a war between Republican vs Democrats, or What President Obama did or didn't do. This is a war between CORPORATIONS vs MIDDLE CLASS WORKING AMERICANS and if we in this country don't wake up and see what is happening we will be living in a third world country where they will be 2 classes of people THE RICH and POWERFUL and POOR AND WEAK.
