put your shirt back on

Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain says, "Don't blame Wall Street, don't blame the big banks, if you don't have a job and you're not rich, blame yourself!"

And that is a fucking quote.

Apparently, 99% of Americans can be wrong. Because it's our fault that we can't send our children to school because they are overcrowded and falling apart. It's our fault that we have to get a mortgage to buy a home and take out a loan to get an education that won't get us a job, anyway. It's our fault that we face down superflus and incurable diseases without the faintest hope of being able to afford health insurance. Unending wars and corrupt corporations and a total failure of our government to take the steps necessary to preserve even the most basic of human needs couldn't have anything to do with it.

You're absolutely right. Our bad.



Dear GOP,

Eat all the dicks.

Love,
The 99%


BUT!
Glenn Beck is running scared from Occupy Wall Street, which just warms the cockles of my anarchistic little heart.

I had to make a new Facebook page. Again.

I've done it, before, and it was a freeing experience. However, this time it was less my choice and more out of necessity. My fake name had become too well known and attached to professional situations that would 'reflect negatively' upon my place of work.

I despise censorship and created a fake account so I would have the freedom to vent without fear of reprisal. However, that ended today.

So I dropped that account and kicked it to the curb. I won't delete it, but I'm not going to update it, anymore. And I am going to be a lot more discriminating with my new account when it comes to friending and the like, because I am very tired of being told what to do.

Augh. You'd think I'd learn.
