  • We’ve got some gripes.  We’d rather have some grapes dementedly fermented.  But instead we had two Hostess cupcakes and are now left with a two-cup cupcake holder that we don’t know what to do with.  You obviously realize the trouble we’re in.


     


    But if I were to put such tortuous personal issues aside, what gripes would yet remain?


     


    First, I’m tired of hearing about U.S. flags that were purportedly made in, for instance, Taiwan, and hence aren’t *American enough* to celebrate our new high-styled outpouring of patriotism.  Who the hell cares where they are/were made?  Probably over half of the stuff destroyed in the World Trade Center, including many lives, were not *made in America*.  That doesn’t invalidate the loss, or diminish it as less than a total American tragedy.  Hey baby, in today’s world, it’s not where it’s made, it’s how and where it’s paid that makes it  yours, mine, and as American as mango pie.


     


    Next: Congress collectively can suck my prick.  Those fine fellows and ladies had the opportunity in this national crisis to prove themselves as worthy of admiration as the Founding Fathers were in first battling and securing our liberty.  But one envelope of anthrax delivered in the mail has sent them all scurrying for cover back to their respective home districts.  Don’t get me wrong—if they had no business outstanding whatever or were truly life-endangered, then prudence would have dictated their evacuation.   But here we have the Government, on one hand, continuing to encourage us to fly, fly, fly and go to Disneyland (past and potentially future popular targets or terrorism) and continue business as usual for “patriotic” / economic reasons, yet we have, on the other hand, national leaders, with critical anti-terrorist  and economic assistance legislation as yet un-voted upon and with all the Cipro they could ever need to stave off any potential infection,  running for the hills…er…away from the Hill!!!  I tell you: it’s the police and firemen and soldiers and common people found helping each other under these recent conditions of extreme duress that are my heroes.  And not these jackasses.  And yes, even the elephants in Congress proved themselves to be jackasses in this.  Why not just move to another building and show the terrorists that their feeble threat cannot deter America’s will through Congress to strike back without relent?  Nope—they let the terrorists win this measly skirmish.  If I am Osama, I boast: “We have the American Congress on the run.  We’ve set back legislation several days.  At what cost?  A U.S. postage stamp! hahahahaha!”   Son-of-a –bitches all!  If I ever die for this country, it will NEVER be for them!


     


    And, oh yes, the headlines today: “American Troops On The Ground In Afghanistan”.   No shit hijack!  They’ve been there for over a month now.   Why doesn’t the press stop insulting us and over-saturating us with the moronically obvious.  Get a grip American Press!    Come back when you get an exclusive underground interview with Osama or show a Delta Force sniper putting a bullet in his brain thus making it somewhat scattered and lame.  Else Lame Off  and put some *other news* --once worthy, but now all but vanished--back into the news and allow things to fall into a proper perspective. 


     


    Now…what the hell can I do with that empty two-cup cupcake holder that’s beginning to grin with contempt??!!
