CALL ME SLOW

... but I just don't get it.

1a. North Korea has documented weapons of mass destruction.
1b. Iraq, thus far, has none.

2a. North Korea has a documented nuclear weapon.
2b. Iraq, thus far, has none.

3a. North Korea has kicked UN inspectors to the curb.
3b. Iraq, thus far, has not.

4a. North Korea has tested weapons over neighboring countries.
4b. Iraq, thus far, has not.

Why are we going to war with Iraq? Why aren't Americans in an outrage? Why is American media skating around the issue: "..the POSSIBLE war with Iraq.." Why isn't anyone worried about the problem in Venezuela? (especially the SUV owners).

Let's face it: now is a sad time to be an American. The Democrats are as flat and sad and pitiful as a day old pancake, Bush and his cronies, to their unfortunate credit do indeed have a solid, albeit warped and hypocritical plan and if the Demmie's don't get their behinds together we're in for a long two, possible six, more years with the Bushwhacker. I guess the Clinton era (God bless him!) left so many of us with more money than we know what to do with (you know, the days when stocks actually paid dividends) and complacency and mediorcity are at an all time high. All American media can come up with, night after night, is the build up of forces and the who-shot-john between jennifer lopez and ben affleck (sp?) and jennifer aniston and brad pitt. Hard core investigative journalism is gone. We're just a nation of comfy cozies with our emails and voicemails and blackberrys and palms and ipods and imacs and faxes and webcams and digital 3 pixels and mp3s and two car garages and lonely streets 'cos kids don't play outside anymore... no, no, not when there's the good ol' playstation to play with ...... we're just a nation of comfy cozies who get all our truth from the six o'clock news and if it's on the news, well, you know it's GOT TO BE TRUE.
Damn. I just don't get it. Where's my passport .......

be well. be love(d).
