Lat's let the Beatles describe describe our government.


So how do we do this?


Let's hope for some common sense. We aren't getting it now!

I sent this to my congressmen!
I am sorry for any language that I may use that might offend you. I really appreciate the job that you are doing on our behalf! But...
I say NO! To the bailout of these banks and insurance companies, and this Wall Street sham, scam, on our Nation! This is a news media “Laugh test” being perpetrated upon the people, the real Americans, of this Nation. Make the most outlandish claims to help the so-called victim out, and let the “little guy” bail them out again! If no one objects or laughs, go ahead with it! NO, no, no!
You said “the banks will go broke, the insurance companies will go broke, the poor stock market people, and their squealing, yapping shareholders will lose their money. Well, so what brother! We’ve been losing to these cretins for centuries! To hell with them! Let them die! LET...THEM... DIE! We are sick and tired of rich multi-millionaire bastards crying over their incompetence, and wanting US, the “little guy”, to bail them out! Don’t’ do this or you will suffer from the defamed notoriety! We are angry about this. Don’t mess with the people, this time! We are a snarling Dog, and we are tired of this!
I love my country, I am a Veteran, I love my people, no matter how struggling and poor! I am very serious-do not do this! You are our representative in the Congress of the United States of America! You are our voice. Nobody, in this world, can tell me they don’t have the money to bail themselves out! All they have to do is take a little less in salary, say 10 million dollars, give back all bonuses, give up all their company trips to the Bahamas, give up company cars. For God’s sake, do something for yourselves, you lazy bastards!
Solving the economic crisis!
Here’s what we do! Instead of just $750 billion, we take one trillion dollars, to bail out the banks, loan-sharks, and corporations, that have so miserably, failed, and stolen so much from us! In the case of a hungry bank, you quit feeding the damn thing! Since when does an American reward failure anyway? That’s like cut-and-run!
So, we have this $1 trillion dollars, right? Since we already know these Pigs are about to scam us, we simply, change our minds, we flip-flop! But we, like Sarah Palin taught us, keep the money! We divide it up among the voters who vote in the next election, with the stipulation that it has to be used for that voter’s town’s infrastructure, and community, or atste good! Can you imagine the crowd on election day? We solve three problems: This crappy economy that Bush created, voter turnout on election day, and it will create jobs, jobs, jobs!
Oh, and by the way, we’ll put an earmark in it, that says Election Day is a National Holiday! We can celebrate, and not complain about, who we are!
And the banks, loan sharks, and corporations, that have so miserably failed? Well, they can go somewhere and die! I’m sick and tired of the richest people getting obscene money for failing! The corporations have to make a profit on top of profit, so the squealing, greedy, shareholders will shut their faces! That kind of bubble has to break! The damn automakers are waiting in line, for their turn!
Damn! I am

I can't help myself. I thought I better put this down somewhere, so Blogsburg, you' got it! let me explain this.
I call them “pain points”. They are spots where the Doctors shot radiation into each side of my head when I had Cancer the first time. The technicians a plastic mask they put over my face. (It's hanging in my garage now) The technicians would anchor my head down to the table in exactly the same position every treatment. Perhaps it’s the drugs, or the radiation, but now I have these sharp little pains that arise every once in a while in my head. Sometimes they come in the night, in the form of dreams, sometimes when I am awake. When they come, I have these visions, dreamlike, and very vivid. These sprints of writing are the little snips of visions that have come to me. Some have come close to being true. So I began writing them down.

Remember the song, “Brazil”, the snappy instrumental, from the forties movies? It’s a real crisp Latin song. I keep hearing a version of it, always in conjunction with a high school band. this has come to me several times. It's always in Miami. I think a high school band in Miami is going to record it to raise money for the music department at the school, and that recording is going to go ‘national’. It will make them a ton of money, and usher in ‘the age of the ‘Latinos’!

But I kept thinking: “why is this significant?”. Why does this keep coming back into my mind? I always see the president's brother, Jeb. Then the image always fades like he's going away! That song will be made in a period of tension. It will be a good time for the Latinos, but a bad time for Miami, a bad time for Florida. Latin dance, which is already popular, will be even more popular, and this song will set it off. But it will also set off resentment with the immigration whackos! It has to do with young people, and the music, and, it has to do with a terrorist attack, from within by the whackos, and without by terrorists! I need a positive dream, damn it!

I see things that are not good for America. The Republicans will fall because of the many scandals they have had clinging to them. I have seen children crying. I see a major child-pornography ring being exposed, and it will become connected, in a round-about way, to the Republicans. And it is government-connected. It will be unfair to blame the Republicans but they won’t avoid the connection.

The wind will be filled with talk of the Republican party being taken over by a more constrained group, a more moderate side. Possibly even a new party (The Ron Paul revolution perhaps?).
Impeachment will be in the wind, but not accomplished, because of the short time Bush and Cheney have left. (Well, that’s old news).

Yet, I don’t see elections. Why is that? The people have been lied to so many times, they will not believe, even the truth when the government tells it. The color alerts, now gone, are revived after something terrible happens.
Hostility will still be the focus of the tension. Although I see a dark horse Republican come on strong, he will not be able to take over leadership, because his ideas are so different, there will be no way to implement them without tearing the entire structure of the government down.
Consequently, I should see the 2008 elections being devastating for the Republicans, and the Democrats taking over ‘the hill’. It’s never good when one party takes everything. That only leads to an extreme, one-sided view from leadership. And yet, I can’t see the elections!
I don’t see elections in 2008! I wonder why not! I think it's because this may not be 2008, maybe 2012? I don't know, but I see the Democrats in an all-too-powerful position. They will be the hated regime!
I see a little kid becoming a huge celebrity. He will have talents beyond normal. Very intelligent, and very charimatic, and extremely dangerous!
There's a lot more, but I've had enough of this negative bull shit today. I wonder why they always seem so angry, and bad. Can I please have a happy vision, please! Maybe it's me? Maybe I'm just a grouchy old fart, with bad dreams! Yeah, that's it!

Guess who will finally be capture, or killed, just prior to the November elections?
Hint: He's tall, dark, very sick, and he smells of Donkeys!

So, we’re going to bail out a couple more banks, and loaning institutions! Well, what’s new? Freddie Mac and Fannie May, The Lehman Brothers, Bear Sterns, are just the latest, with Goldman Sax and Chase Manhattan waiting in the wings, wringing their hands. I wonder what Fannie and Freddie are doing?

Fannie and Freddie.

“Yo, Fannie, let’s go down to Buddy’s for a while.”
“Now Freddie, we’re pretty broke! Do you think it’s wise to go to a tavern and spend money we need?”
“Jesus Fannie, you only live once! Let’s, at least, go down partying!”
“Oh I know honey, but we really don’t have the money. We’ll have to write a check. It won’t be covered until payday.”
“Listen baby, don’t worry about the money. It’ll be there sooner or later.”
“But honey, I don’t like spending money we don’t have!” Freddie kisses Fannie.
“Come on, let’s go to Buddy’s. In an hour, we won’t give a damn! Don’t let this shit get to you! It’s important to over-shoot the runway once in a while. Man, the adrenaline just rushes through the veins! It’s exciting to live on the edge. Come on, Fannie!”
“All right but if we get into trouble, it’s your fault!’
“Nah, we have plenty of protection against that. Ain’t nobody can bring us down! Look, I saw the numbers, and we’re just a little bit down; it won’t be that bad. And if it is bad, we’ll just bail out! Hey, they aren’t going to take us out of the economy. Look at Enron! They all came out of that with their money! Look at all the rest of our friends. They’re all in trouble like we are! They won’t let all of us go down!”
“I’m glad you have such faith in this government, Fred, but I DON’T!”
“The government? Who said anything about the government. They are just the ‘bag man’! It’s the ‘people’ who will bail us out, not the government. We have to take care of each other.”
“But, you just said it yourself, the people are broke too!”
“Look Fannie, ‘the people’ are waiting for us down at Buddy’s. Goldman and the Lehman brothers are probably shit-faced already! We might as well join them.”
“Okay, honey but let’s not stay late, okay?”
“I promise it will be just a few.” Freddie crosses his fingers behind himself. He knows that once he get’s Fannie into the tavern, she’ll forget all this nonsense about money. Their credit is good with Buddy, just like everybody else’s is, except the people’s!
