Sabotage!

Kell and I, within 2 months of Obama being in office, noticed this. I believe even before he was inaugurated we had joked around along the lines that the Repubs would make his life an extra special hell...over and above the normal Capitol Hill ideological hazing. Man, we should of kept our mouths shut.

I wondered how far they would go, how dismal they'd let the landscape become (and when I say this, it becomes convoluted with the addition of Dem's who won't speak up and Blue Dogs who love their campaign fund donations as much as the Repubs) and it's becoming more and more apparent that the suffering and hardship of 10's and 10's of millions of Americans are inconsequential...when it comes to making sure Obama is a one term President. They must rid the stink of him from the hallowed grounds of political divide.

I know it's never as simple as it seems and that posturing is always part of our fucked up political process...but this is just fuck'in scary. We're being held hostage against the ethereal notion that, "once he's gone, things can get back to normal, that we no longer need to be punished for our transgressions." But it will only get worse. What little resistance there is against Corps. will be completely gone in a Repub led Executive Office, Senate and House. We'll be eaten alive for a buck.

I swear to all that is holy, if it weren't for my checkered past, I'd run for congress and be Alan Grayson on steroids.
