Hey. I used to respect the Nobel Prize. Heck, His Holiness the Dalai Lama snagged on.
But Barack Obama? Nice guy and all but he ain't done shit yet. There are no accomplishments to recount. No trophies on his mantle. And I voted for the guy. He's too conservative for me, but I voted for him.
But his on my shit list. The latest insult was snubbing the Dalai Lama this week for fear of pissing off the Chinese before his visit next month. Pissing off the Chinese? When was that a concern of ours?
Let's get this straight: our new Nobel Prize winner favors bald faced, unbriddled capitalism over human rights and genocide. I'm sure the Uighers and Burmese as well as the Tibetans appreciate this cold-hearted decision.
Close Guantanamo? No. Get out of Iraq? No. Bitch slap Wall and reform Street and Detroit? No. Gay rights? Healthcare reform? Change I can believe in? Nope.
What's he done? What can I tick off my list? How is my life better and what about my kids' future? My only satisfaction is that we're not living under the McCain/Palin regime.
Liberals, they always break your heart. We need our own party...
