Time for a rant..."...the American People..." (bad language)
I've just about fucking had enough of the use of that phrase...


Every sanctimonious prick representing his or her party trots that ***damn phrase out as they try to make their point.

I hereby serve notice to all of them...from the President to every member of every policy-making group...Senate/House/Governorships etc...

None of you assholes has ever called me to ask my take on anything.

None of you assholes do what I do for a living.

None of you assholes know me or my neighbors.

None of you assholes have the right to presume you fucking know what the "...American People..." want...

I can tell you, my co-workers, friends, neighbors, and casual acquaintances have reached a consensus decision...

we...

the "...American People..." are sick and fucking tired of your self-serving interests...

Here's a fucking newsflash you assholes...

the "American People..." are not fucking corporate interests..."

Banks, Energy companies and Insurance companies are not the "...American People..."

Don't fucking presume to know what the "...American People..." want , believe or need...

and don't fucking presume to assume that you can define us with that broad brush....


We're growing fucking tired of it...

Get your shit together, and do what is morally and ethically correct rather than what you feel you can get away with...



Phew...thanks all for listening..

goodnight.

3. Good rant. It especially irritates me whenever I watch Senator
Enzi. He can't say 2 sentences without saying - "it's what the American People want". Not sure what the hell polls he's looking at, but it's usually something most of us don't want.

7. Excellent. Thank you
May I add:

Yo assholes, stop fucking defining me or making presumptions about me based on my race, gender, ethnicity, religion (or lack thereof), region, income or any other label. No one is the sum total of their labels. Because you can't or won't think things through doesn't mean I don't.
