F@*k It...I Quit (Great KOS Diary - Reminding Us To Chill)
F@*k It...I Quit

....................

First there was the victory celebration in Grant Park, where Obama didn't single me out and thank me personally for all of my hard work; all of the hours I put in making calls and knocking on doors, and writing letters to editors, and, most importantly, all of my blogging. Where the fuck does he get off?!?

Then I find out that barely five seconds after he became the President Elect, he did exactly what they said he was going to do: meet with terrorists without pre-conditions! They even said so on the TeeVee, yup yup, he's going to sit down with George W. Bush!

..................

I'm at the end of my damn rope. All this talk about open government, and we'll have a place, and our voice will count...and all he does is build a damn website where we can do just that! Where's the email with the private number to the Oval Office? Where's the personal invitation to the Correspondent's Dinner? After all, I spent months and months forcing my opinion on the blogosphere...that's corresponding if ya ask me.

So that's it. I quit. I tender my resigfuckingnation immediately. If Barack Obama can't force Harry Reid to publicly flog Joe LIEberman with a spiked rubber chicken, what's the point? I mean, the troops aren't even back yet! Unicorns haven't returned to Earth! The stock market isn't above 15,000!

Yup. FTW, I'm out.

2. Methinks thou doth protest too much, and too early. Though some (including me) have
rained on the parade by worrying about the unity/compromise/sell-out approach that President Obama will/may/seems-to-want-to take, realize that it is NOT a selfish little rant about my personal wants, but rather, a genuine concern that, once again, as always, the goals of the commie-pinko wing of the Democratic party will be forgotten, as they were during the campaign.

Belittling liberals as petty whiners is NOT the approach to take.

How about cautioning with a "give-him-a-chance first" message? Or, if you really think that "the left" is an unneeded part of the coalition of centrist hope, just come out and tell us to simply vote, donate, and shut up.

3. Does the rubber chicken HAVE to be spiked?...
...because I think that could be a negotiating point.
