curmugeon | Welcome to the U.S.A.

It seems we are a country of fat, dumb, and happy ignorant slobs. We're having an election on November 7th, and the Republicans are already saying they will win. I wonder why, but then, they do have the keys to the electronic voting machines, they will disenfranchise thousands of voters, and maybe they will use intimidation. Hell, this isn't democracy anyway, that's something we export elsewhere, we don't have it here. Democracy never existed in the United States. We are a Republic. We have a two party system that fights like hell to stay in power. Can't have any upstarts thinking they are qualified for public office. Corporations set the rules, and they only want those people they own, so no Green Party, No Socialists, and definitely no Communistw.

There is no democracy in America. No freedom from religion, no freedom of the press. No, we're all in hell and we don't know it yet.
