I can't stand this anymore!
I rarely post. Can't spell and can't write. Usually my husband takes the brunt of my rants, thankfully he has seen the light and come full spectrum from the selection statement of, "Shut up and just give the guy a chance." to, "These guys are criminals." Well he is not home right now so here goes.
I turned off the news months ago. I keep up here where I feel comfortable. Today I just had to watch, DAMN! When are people and the media going to back these thugs into a corner? They came into power (I won't state the obvious here) set themselves up with only like minded people to set policy. That in itself should have set off alarm bells. They are playing Empire like it was their country, their world and their money. Thousands of people have died and will continue to die and all they can give us in they DON"T KNOW?? They don't even try to explain and no one ever keeps pressing the questions. "I Don't Know" is not good enough. "Oops" is not good enough. We made a mistake is not good enough, not when making world decisions and policy. These guys are either dumb as stumps or they think we are. What kind of fu**ing craziness is this?
These "little" issues are coming up so fast that I feel like I am going to have a stroke from slamming my head against a wall. Rapid fire crimes without response or response without outrage.
I feel a little better now. No new info, no links, nothing really important here just my little rant.

5. I do and will
write and call until my fingers fall off! I can't hurt but does not seem to be helping much, at least not yet. Time will tell I suppose.

6. A great rant.
Your writing is fine. You have a nice, clear declarative style that more so-called professionas should learn to use.

7. Thanks
you are very kind and I will. It just boggles my mind all of this. You all keep me somewhat grounded, at least I have not taken up drinking yet!
