Last Night, I Had A Dream

 

Last Night, I Had A Dream

Last night, I had the weirdest dream.
I was sitting at a dinner table with my date
and he kept wanting to leave and I was confused
because we had only just got there.
But when I turned my head,
and looked down, lying on the floor
was a dead man.
I sat there totally comfortable
while my date wanted to go.
I refused. I said, “You go, I’m staying.”
Who was the dead man?
I don’t know, but that is all
that I can remember from
my dream last night.
I hope Joe Biden
wasn’t the dead man.
I need that bastard, alive.
Wake up Biden,
tis no time to sleep.
You’ve work to do.
The ‘continued collapse of Amerikkka’ awaits you.

Don’t you damn Amerikkkans forget for one damn second that this shithole bombed Iraq, practically into oblivion over a lie about them having weapons of mass destruction when the corrupt and warmongering shits at the helm of this lopsided, sinking, stinking, racist shithole knew that Iraq had NO weapons of mass destruction. But now there is talk amongst the corrupt, warmongers in congress about having Vladimir Putin up on war crimes charges. Are those hypocritical, lying, corrupt warmongers for real? Did George W. Bush go before the ICC on war crimes charges? Obama? McCain? Lindsey Graham? Colin Powell? Nikki Haley? Hillary Clinton? Bill Clinton? Dick Cheney? Condalsleezy ‘Bush whore Rice?

Let’s just ALL forget about the war crimes that this fucked up nation has committed and concentrate on some made up shit about Vladimir Putin. It has been stated that Russia has the power to bring this shithole and those shitholes in Europe to its knees despite been sanctioned to hell and back. I hope that’s true. I hope with every fiber of my being that Russia, even though Russia’s leaders are nowhere near as insane and useless as these criminals shits at the helm of this shithole as well as those who are at the helm of European shitholes, but I’d put all of that aside if I were the Russians and get with the business of kicking ass and taking no prisoners. Leave the dead lying where they may.

Russia, blast clear cross Europe and and then look this way. Don’t leave this shithole out, not for a minute. And if you refuse to drop bombs over here, then make sure that those sanctions impact every fucking ass over here, from the top to the bottom. I’m already at the bottom and so it don’t hardly matter to me. Russia, THIS time, leave no target unaccounted for. Target ALL and don’t stop until you get the job done because you should know by now that these sorry shits over here got nothing going on and when there’s nothing going on, they start wars and shit and that is exactly what is happening. This shithole is done for. Millions are homeless. Millions are starving. Millions are jobless because even with the few jobs available, they are low wage jobs that do not sustain a person and folks are just homeless, hungry and fucked up. And the rest are sitting up in prisons getting fucked up and some more shit. Ain’t shit nice, relaxing, comfortable and some more shit going on over here. The price gouging is off the chain. Real estate investors are deliberately pricing people out of their homes all over greed. And so, AGAIN, Russia, I beseech you, wipe this shit off the map, one way or another! And that doddering old fool Biden is NOT up to the job of doing anything more than sucking down applesauce and taking a nap. He’s not capable of running a shit producing farm. Put paid to this shithole, once and for all!

“Thank You For Your Service, No Really, Thank You. We ALL Thank You!”

America bombs hospitals, just not in America, not yet.

 

 

Doctors Without Borders would like to take this opportunity on this day to thank America’s veterans for blowing up their hospital. They appreciate the lies that were put out by the hypocrites that shout up and down about how humanitarian they are and then turn right around and blow up a hospital and lie about it. How can something that would blow up a hospital be considered, human? It can’t. Americans are not human. That fact should be quite well known to the humans that have been fucked up by the shits from America.

The people of Iraq would like to take this opportunity on this day to thank America’s veterans for rendering them homeless and for causing them to become refugees who are welcome, nowhere.

 
The people of Iraq would also like to take this opportunity on this day to thank America for the Abu Ghraib prison torture atrocity; to thank America’s veterans for killing innocent Iraqi men, women and children. Well over a million of Iraq’s people are dead because America’s men and women can’t think for themselves. They listened to the lies of warmongers and promptly suited up and in ‘cold blood’ murdered and tortured over a million Iraqi people and yet we sit somewhere celebrating crimes that psychopaths, war criminals and subhuman beasts have committed against innocent people all around the world.

We celebrate war criminals that should be shot for what they have done, but instead, we host parades, attend solemn ceremonies honoring these war criminals and encourage them to keep at it and up the ante; kill more and more people, turn more and more innocent people into homeless refugees and we thank them for doing this. Every single damn time we ‘thank’ these cowards; these subhuman beasts for ‘keeping America safe’, we as hypocrites encourage war crimes to continue and they will!

And I must not forget that I am quite sure that the people of Afghanistan are taking this opportunity today to celebrate what our war criminal veterans have done to them and to their country; killing innocent people, blowing up hospitals, pissing on dead Afghan corpses, cutting off their body parts and emailing them to fellow war criminal veterans. Yes, this is what we are celebrating. This is what we continue to encourage. Blowing up hospitals is what warriors and heroes do? Pissing on dead bodies is something that warriors and heroes do? Emailing the body parts of the dead is what warriors and heroes do? Yeah, if they’re American and British. That’s right, British, because that shit spawned this shit in America.

What you consider to be a hero is nothing more than a paid whore that lets himself get pimped out to kill innocent people to make warmongers and war hawks rich. You are not celebrating heroics. You are celebrating criminality. You are celebrating whoring. You are celebrating a lie! And what’s more, you know this but because of the lack of morality, decency, values, principles, compassion, love and empathy that makes people human and that is sadly lacking in most Americans, you are all whores because you gladly pimp your sons and your daughters to the warmongers. Why do you do this? Because you are not human, that’s why. Every member of the Taliban is more human than you will ever be. Every member of ISIS is more human than your sorry ass can aspire to be. Every member of any so-called ‘terrorist organization’ that this fucked up government has deemed a threat to this shithole is more human than the 300 million worthless shits that call themselves, American. And quite frankly, this shithole is collapsing in on itself. There is no need to worry about a ‘foreign’ enemy doing a goddamn thing to this hellhole. The Taliban is not causing massive sinkholes. ISIS is not causing earthquakes to shake up areas that had previously had no earthquakes. The al–Nusra Front is not causing the derailing of trains with crude oil to derail and pollute rivers and streams. No so-called ‘terrorist organization’ has to come over here and fuck shit up because America’s infrastructure is failing of its own accord. America’s lakes and rivers have been polluted by Americans. America’s homeless and hungry have been made so by Americans. Black bodies are piled high in morgues, not because of ISIS or ISIL, but because of racism; systemic and endemic. The Taliban is not feeding America’s opium addiction, the U.S. government via the U.S. military whores are. You American motherfuckers are pure nasty filth; vile and funky shit. That’s what you are and that is why you can celebrate pure evil and death because when you look in the mirror, evil and death is what is looking right back at you! But you can’t stop killing and you actually celebrate torturing and killing innocent people. How sick is that? You’re some real sick shits, you are!

I cannot wait for the day to come when each and every nasty, vile and filthy shit in America will reap what has been sown by America. Enjoy your celebrations and your easy life while you still can but believe me, you are on the ‘Titanic’ and this ‘Titanic’ is just as unsinkable as that other one! Try making what’s to come into a ‘love story’.

Happy Goddamn Veterans Day, you worthless warmongering whorish shits! And, yes indeed, “thank you from all of us around the world that’s been fucked up by you!”

Attention: All House-breakers!

 

 

I will be going on vacation from August 14th to the 24th. My address is 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC. Now, before you attempt to break in, let me warn you that I have a security detail that will be left behind at the house. However, if you bring prostitutes, they will become easily distracted. Also, bring some meat. I have dogs and the kitchen staff will be left behind to keep an eye on them and to feed and water them. However, all knives have been locked away and the kitchen staff is forbidden weapons of any kind. So enter by way of the kitchen door, if you intend to attempt a break-in. The security code is 66666666. I know, I picked a really, really hard code. Don’t forget to stop off by the Lincoln bedroom because there are many artifacts in there that are priceless and I don’t want them taken. Under no circumstances are you to enter a secret room that is located directly beneath the Oval office that is near the south lawn of the house.

There is a door that has red paint splashes all over it and this door, you must not enter because it leads to a secret tunnel where you will find the Osama bin Laden false flag operation setup. You will also find bin Laden ‘gelling’ in his Doctor Scholl’s fitted sandals. You will also find the studio where the ISIS beheading videos are made AND the blueprints of the Twin Towers that we bombed on 9/11 which is part of the reason why we had to bomb the Pentagon so as not to have to pretend to offer up some lame ass excuses as to why the Pentagon lost trillions of your hard-earned tax dollars. Not to mention, you will actually find the missing $8.5 trillion dollars that the Pentagon lost. Do not touch anything if you have managed to get to this point. If you have, then I must warn you that you will come to a vault that also needs a secret code in order to enter it and I am not going to reveal. It is 495860430. But I didn’t reveal the code; my alter-ego did, so that absolves me from spilling the ‘code’ beans. Enter that code and you will step inside the vault. To the left of you, you will notice that there is a raised dais and on that dais are two telephones. One is black and the other one is white. Do not under any circumstances, pick up the white phone as that will immediately blow Texas and Ted Cruz clean on up off the map and leave a crater in its place. I refuse to tell you what will happen if you pick up the black phone. It is too horrible for words, but let me warn you, it could endanger the entire planet’s ecosystem. Oh my bad! I already picked up that phone. So, no worries on that score. Now then, where was I, oh yes, if you walk twelves paces, you will come to the very center of the vault and there you will find all of Ukraine’s stolen gold reserves. When I sell the house on November 8th, 2016, I plan to take that with me to a vacation island that I’ve managed to buy thanks in part to all the bribes and kickbacks that I’ve earned throughout my many years in politics.

I am sure that by now, you are wondering why the floor is littered with balled up paper. Well, if you reach down and pick up a piece, you will see that those are divorce papers that my wife has had drawn up, times too numerous to count but because we are in DA HOUSE, we’ve got to keep things, hunky-dory, if ya know what I mean. Anyway, you can burn those papers because I’m going back to Kenya(where I was born) just as soon as I hand the keys over to the next puppet and after a suitable amount of time has gone by, I intend to dispose of my nagging ass Chicago ghetto hood rat wife and take the kids and the dogs. My wife and her dear motherfucker can just get ta steppin’. Also, I am going to make Kenya, a gay-friendly zone, even if I have to become president there to get it done. I have already laid the groundwork with my recent visit there. So, all it’ll take is a bit more of a push from me, Kenya’s native son, to complete that which I have set in motion. I put Kenya on the map and don’t those folks over there know it.

Fuck Hawaii. I’ll still go there to golf every now and then since Oprah is so nice about having us at her digs. In case I need to hide out from the ICC, which really has no bite to it anyway, seeing as how the ICC hasn’t found its way to prosecuting my predecessors for war crimes. I see no reason why I should be held accountable for drone striking wedding parties in Yemen, resulting in the deaths of countless innocent women, children and men and making orphans out of children in Iraq and Syria, Pakistan and Yemen. Oh and house-breakers, you will also find a golden sword that was gifted to me by the Saudi royal family, gifted to me because of those great beheading videos that my staff made, with my knowledge and consent, of course. Bush left his behind also and so please don’t steal that one since I promised him that I would get around to Fed-Xing it to him just as soon as I’m done with those fake-assed beheading journalist videos.

And don’t forget, potential house-breakers, you really don’t wanna mess with my house because I’ve been known to illegally detain innocent people without due process and I have no problem with the CIA using rectal hydration on innocent bodies either. So, if you dare to attempt to house-break MY motherfucking house, be aware that I shall have my military Seal Team 6, the 999th Seal Team 6, that is, to ‘Osama bin Laden’ your ass. You’ll get a great ‘ocean view’! *wink* *wink*

Now, time to don a paisley shirt, my soccer mom jeans and board Air Force One! Aloha!

In Arlington County, Virginia, Public Profanity Will Cost You $250

Now, does it really look like I give a good goddamn for your public profanity misdemeanor bullshit? If you are still unsure, you fucking assholes, archive this blog to your motherfucking heart’s content and then get a goddamn big ass clue, you goddamn bastards!

This is exactly why I got the fuck out of Virginia, I would have been charged with some goddamn bullshit nonsense. Now, they are fucking regulating our speech, but fuck what the hell our goddamn so-called congressional representatives and fucking step-and-fetch Obama are doing to people all across the globe; bombing them, drone striking wedding parties in Yemen, torturing people in secret CIA facilities in who knows how many other countries, but they want to fine me for using profanity. What the fuck? Are we to walk around like we’re in some goddamn ‘Stepford Wives’ movie or ‘Invasion of the Body snatchers’? To hell with that shit! I am sick to pieces of every time I turn around, some bullshit nonsense is all up in our face when TPTB get away with torture, murder, illegal detention, war crimes, illegal wars of aggression, toppling democratically elected leaders of other countries and nothing is said about that, but let me fucking cuss and I’ve got the long arm of the law coming down on me for some bullshit! Again I say, “FUCK YOU!” ‘Virginia is for lovers’ my goddamn ass! Go to hell Virginia and take that shit in DC along with you, you fucked up motherfuckers! Now, fucking fine me, you no good bitches!

The U.S. has drone struck Yemen, set Libya on fire, drone struck Pakistan, started a war in Afghanistan and why? The U.S. is bombing Syria and Iraq AGAIN. The U.S. is sending its military back into Somalia, and don’t even act like you don’t know why Vietnam would say, “Death to the West!” The U.S. AND Israel is out to make sure that Iran is ‘declawed’ or in other words, is no threat to Israel by having nukes although, it’s fine for Israel to ‘enjoy’ a nukes program. The U.S. has set up a drone base in Niger and I am certain that if Niger decided to set up a drone base in the U.S., and to say that, “That would not go over well!”, would be the goddamn understatement of the year! And what about Bill Clinton’s War in Yugoslavia? Never forget the U.S. neo-Nazi shit stirrers that have fucked up Ukraine while Russia got the blame. We all should know that U.S. help for Haiti is a fraud! And last but certainly not least, “Death to the West!” for what went down in Ferguson, MO and for what went down in Ohio and for what went down in New York and for what continues to go down every single goddamn day for people all across this shithole! “Death to the West!” Now fucking cart me off to a FEMA camp, I fucking dare ya!

War Is Always Such A Blessing!

 

 

 

 

War is always such a blessing
It never is distressing or depressing.
I know all too well that this is true.
War has been good for me and you.

You proudly give your lives up for the rich.
For us, life never is a bitch.
In a blaze of glory, you go out.
And really, that’s what it’s all about.

The drone operators are so brave
as they send little children to their grave.
Since the world has become a battleground,
the drums of war make a lovely throbbing sound.

Teach your sons and your daughters about their duty.
And one day, when they are dead, we’ll make a movie.
It will honor their brave and noble deeds.
The wounded, we shall see to all their needs.

Through war, we bring peace unto this earth.
And though you break out in dubious peals of mirth,
the last laugh will always be on you,
for none of what is written is ever true.

When we put a lethal weapon in your hand,
and send you to die in a foreign land,
your life means nothing, you should know,
but you never give pause, you just go.

War is not only just a blessing,
to us, it is also quite refreshing,
that you are so willingly prostituted,
and it’s all because you are just too stupid,
to understand that if it were not for you,
no drone would ever strike on cue!

This poem was born thanks to Tubularsock’s latest blog post and what a knock-out it is! If I were you, I would head on over there because when they say that, “The truth shall set you free!” let’s see if indeed that is the case because, CANNON FODDER, WAKE THE FUCK UP! You are not honorable, nor are you brave and you’re certainly not fierce and tough if you’re a drone operator because how is your life on the line? You are sitting thousands of miles away from the target, which happens to be a HUMAN BEING and not a BUG SPLAT that you degenerates refer to them as. And those of you who have killed children, how can you even look at yourself in the mirror, much less at your own children and not see the evil and vile atrocity that is YOU?

And if you are thinking that they are going to make a movie about you, dream on! Oh my bad, they did make a movie about the honorable and the brave and they called it American Sniper. Well isn’t that nice? But guess what? Whoever gets to play your stupid ass in the movie is going to take home a Golden Globe or an Oscar for their performance, but what will you take home? Eh? What’s that? A medal? And you say you need food stamps? Are you fucking kidding me? Get outta here! You don’t need food stamps! The elites pay well for you to do their dirty work for them, don’t they? They don’t? My stars! Ain’t that a bitch! So, let me get this straight. The elite fucks send you to do their dirty work and they pay you peanuts to do it and when some Hollywood bigwigs decides to make a movie about your ‘heroics’. you’re not even invited to give your input, much less get a starring role in it? But then maybe that’s because you are just so severely wounded, you are in no position to even hold your own fork, much less learn your lines. But damn! I didn’t even think of this, the fact that you could be dead and therefore, couldn’t star in a movie about yourself at any rate! Wow! How fucked up is that? And for the poor homeless veterans, are you getting any royalties if the movie is based on your ‘war life’? Yes? No? Indeed, we all ‘NO’ what the answer to that question is or you wouldn’t be homeless.

Seriously, how stupid can you get when you know by now that America will never stop the war machine. America is THE WAR MACHINE!  When has America not been the WAR MACHINE? And let me say THIS again. AMERICA, THE WAR MACHINE, COULD NOT BE A WAR MACHINE IF NOT FOR THE CANNON FODDER, THE ELITE’S PROSTITUTES THAT ‘WHORE’ THEMSELVES OUT FOR PEANUTS WHILE THE RICH LAUGH AT YOUR STUPIDITY AND GREEDILY GRAB AND HOARD THE WEALTH THAT THEY ACCUMULATE FROM THE PROFITS OF WAR! War is a booming business for the warmongers. Ask every member of congress. Ask the president. Ask the companies that make the missiles and the drones and the armored vehicles and the military fatigues and all the other military paraphernalia that is required, constantly, to keep the war machine revved up! And please, buy those American flags and just wave ’em back and forth like you just don’t care because guess what? Those who send you off to war, including the president, don’t give a damn about you. That inept, clueless Obama wouldn’t even know how to put an AK-47 together, much less operate a drone. He is your worthless ass cheerleader, cheering you on to your death while he sits back in comfort, waited on hand and foot while you are on active duty guarding poppy plants in Afghanistan. You are away from your families because you are AGAIN, attempting to train Iraqi soldiers how to handle those pesky insurgents that America(CIA) trained. Obama salutes you as though he is doing you a favor. And you stand there smiling and grinning and thinking that you are THE SHIT when in reality, he would have you cleaned off of his shoes just as he would if he had stepped in a pile of shit. Don’t think so! Why are you jobless and homeless if Obama gives a shit? Exactly. Let that marinate!

The sad fact is that this is all a game to those who profit from war. This is all a game to those who send you off to whore your body to them by fighting their wars. Stop being Obama’s whore. He’s already got one. He doesn’t need millions more. Let him and his whore and his VP and John ‘mad dog’ McCain, and John ‘tan man’ Boehner and every other Washington, DC asshole do their own dirty work. Let those who make the war machine possible, do the dirty work; those who make the machines that kill. Let them go. Make them press the button that sends a drone across the world to kill an innocent child, man and woman.

For the cannon fodder prostitutes that make it back all wounded and shit, don’t make yourselves look even worse by allowing them to use you for an infomercial about Wounded Warriors. You just look stupid while they have you begging some stranger to send money to help you get a wheelchair. You chose to go, now deal with it. You’re contemplating committing suicide because you can no longer deal with the hell that is now your mind because of what you’ve done. I can only ask, “Was war a blessing to you?” Do you think Obama is torn over his role in all of this? Do you think that he is up at night, worrying about you? Do you think it even troubles him that as your commander-in-chief, he is ultimately responsible for the deaths of not only every American that gets killed in war, but also every innocent person that gets killed by bombs and missiles and drones that are paid for by me and every other American citizen? This is why your plight is an infomercial because that lying, hypocritical war criminal Obama could give a rat’s ass about you and your family. But go ahead, sign the fuck up, get fucked up and see what happens? Try and find Obama’s ass to send you some relief. And if you die, your family will get a nice American flag to drape over the coffin that will remain closed because what’s inside ain’t looking so good! If it’s ugly, it can’t be shown to the American people. War must forever be removed from US because when it’s not up close and personal, we don’t give a shit! But if it is in the form of a movie, why we are there! American Sniper made how much? American Sniper’ Nears $200 Million in Ticket Sales after 2 weeks. I wonder, did ‘Wounded Warriors’ or ‘Disabled Vets’ contact those who made millions off this movie and ask for donations and if they did, how well were they received? Do you wonder?

The State of the Union Speech…for real!

First of all, let me be clear, I did not look at the State of the Union speech last night, but here is my take on it.

“My fellow Americans, let me be clear. I love you all and I love America! We are at a turning point in America’s history. I have created so many unemployed people, that I have been contacted by the Guinness Book of World Records for this submission. I have closed so many retail stores, I believe I have broken another record. I have drone struck so many innocent people in foreign lands that our drone program is in no danger of ending. I have deposed so many other evil dictators, the world is a much safer place, especially in Libya and Iraq. That mess I got started over in Ukraine, uh, I mean…that Putin got started over in Ukraine is going just as planned. Venezuela is feeling our wrath and will continue to do so until they realize just who is in charge of their country. I have opened relations with Cuba for our, uh, their benefit. Oil production is at an all-time high and our shale industry is doing great. In fact, I just received a thank you letter from some folks in Texas who haven’t yet received their lay-off notices. Real bad Black folks who were caught with a dime bag of weed on them will be incarcerated for 30 years and so white folks, go ahead and take that deep sigh of relief. The prison industrial complex is in full swing and mostly privatized as that is what free market enterprise is all about. The government should not corner the market. There are enough prisoners to fill all institutions. There is no need for more schools since our poor are in prison. There is no need to pass legislation to rein in Wall Street as they are great at overseeing what they do. Those folks are the best.

We have several distinguished guests with us tonight. First up, we have Jack Black who wrote a letter to Santa begging him to let him get an education and grow up to be a successful entrepreneur. His greatest hope is that he does not find himself on the business end of an AK-47 held by New York’s finest in blue. And I am here to help him with his dreams of entrepreneurship because my Administration has approved $20.00 in funding for new business enterprises for Black inner city youth and this young man should have the ability to open as many shoeshine stands on the streets of New York City as is possible for him to realize his dream.

As you all are aware, we just celebrated Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and I must say, Dr. King visited me in my dreams last night and thanked me for the wonderful job that I am doing in increasing unemployment in Black communities all across America. Dr. King praised me for increasing child poverty to unprecedented levels because even Dr. King understood the premise of pulling yourselves up by your very own bootstraps. He could never tolerate slackers. Look how much marching he did. That was quite a stretch, marching from Selma to Montgomery. Dr. King realized that the rich prop the economy up and that serfs and peasants are needed and therefore, we have created a nice little niche for said serfs and peasants to slave away all day long; cleaning the toilets of the rich, handing them their lattes across the counters of Starbucks, ringing up their purchases at Nordstrom’s and of course, bowing and scraping to them as they dust and vacuum their homes.

At the start of my first term, I did what I had to do and that is why not one Wall Street thug that caused the economic collapse went to jail because those thugs are necessary to uphold the very foundation of the economic status of millions of Americans. How else could Americans lose their homes? These self-sacrificing thugs are up all night swilling champagne and trying to formulate plans to make more Americans homeless because that builds character and if I may go back to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., for a minute. Dr. King said, “Do not judge me by the color of my skin, but by the content of my character.” So, as you can see, my inspiration tonight comes from Dr. K. Wassup man? Dr. King was all for building on character. Don’t worry about your skin color. I am half Black and half white and I stand before you as president of the greatest militarized country on the planet. If we maintain our military, then we don’t need to fund food stamp programs. Seniors can take cuts in their Social Security benefits and the Disabled can join our military in the bullet making department. We even have openings at various drone sites all across the country. Even a senior citizen can put some bi-focal glasses on, cite innocent foreign targets and with the touch of a button, send them to hell. These are mean times we live in folks. We’ve created so many terrorists that we just may have to reinstitute the draft. By doing so, we will put more people to work because we have jobs available in the military for the blind, crippled and the crazy. Hell! That’s what we turn our service men and women into anyway and we need some fresh blood ‘cause the troops ain’t looking so great.

We have another distinguished guest with us tonight. This lady from Little Rock, Arkansas wrote to me about her need for housing. Joan Bloomers, where are you? Oh, there you are. Please, let her out of the cage so that she can acknowledge my acknowledgement of her. I thought I told you Joe to prepare a bath for Ms. Bloomers. The homeless shelter she is staying at has bedbugs and lice and no hot showers. Thank you for your letter Ms. Bloomers, now back inside your cage, if you will! Now, I know what some of you are thinking. John Rabid Dog McCain has twelve houses and I bet that he would not even miss one and could therefore, give one of his homes to Ms. Bloomers here. You know what? I wouldn’t even think of asking John Rabid Dog McCain to give up not even one of his homes because well, why should he? Ms. Bloomers needs the assistance of her community and since I was a community organizer, I am well aware that the community should have come together to provide some assistance for Ms. Bloomers’ housing needs. HUD is underfunded due to the needs of our military and unfortunately for Ms. Bloomers, I cannot offer her a Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher at this time. Be patient, Ms. Bloomers and patience is its own reward. Have faith in your Lord and Savior Ms. Bloomers and know that he shall deliver you out of the cold of winter and into the warmth of the Pearly Gates.

And in closing, let me say, fellow Americans, I take much pride in informing you that I intend to start a new two year community college program for all 2nd graders. This program will be funded through tax increases on the class that used to be the middle class but has now descended into the underprivileged class, but not to worry folks. After the 2nd graders take the TAS standardized entrance tests for the two year community college program, that will weed out the wheat from the chaff and only the brightest minds will be qualified. They will be the exceptional ones and as you all know, we here in America, pride ourselves on our exceptionalism. So remember, my fellow Americans, I have decreased high paying jobs, I have increased the need for food stamps. I have increased child poverty by leaps and bounds. I have committed more war crimes than I can shake a stick at and all that I have done is because of my love for America. We shall continue to reign as the most impoverished but the most militarized, warring nation on the face of this planet. Our motto is, “We came, we saw, we conquered, we blew it up and we went back and we blew it up again!” Now take that ISIS AND Vladimir Putin!

God bless America! And thanks to me, may God help the American people! Thank you!”

My Heart Won’t Let Me Vote!

 

 

 

 

 

 

My heart won’t let me vote.

I reject brutality.

Bombs are not my choice.

I’d vote for peace, universally!

 

And yes, I throw my vote away,

as I have done so every time.

When I stood and pulled that lever,

I’ve voted to cast my lot with slime.

 

How many war crimes I’ve committed,

in my name due to a vote.

So much blood has flowed, unchecked,

by all the wars fought by remote.

 

I have never armed a thug.

Nor did I cause someone to die.

But if I vote just one more time,

then I’ll have to answer for that lie.

Stained With Blood!

Shell shocked and raw lies a country now in ruins,
made so by a lie and so now we self-destruct.
We were never a threat to you, but you bombed us all the same.
You claimed to bring us freedom but instead we got fucked!

Condemned without a trial to disease, death and destruction.
Sanctioned to our knees and brought down by western weapons
as birth defects are rampant from Baghdad to Fallujah,
and the guilty still walk free, never looked upon as felons.

We are maimed and defeated and our oil is stained with blood.
It flows into America like your rivers and your streams.
You drive over innocent bodies that were killed to give you speed.
Every time you pump that gas, may you hear the banshee’s screams!

You live your life and cut ours short and never pay the price.
While you claimed to liberate us, you entangled us in your net.
Your mission was accomplished and now you’re back again.
What more is there to take? There’s nothing left for you to get.

Oh, the empire marches on and it’s not done with us.
For the pain that you have caused, one day you too will pay.
We hear of troubles in your land, but you’ve seen nothing yet.
For every Iraqi child you killed, your prayers don’t hold no sway.

What Freedom?

So, you want to fight FOR your country. Why? You want to fight for your country because you’re protecting freedom. Isn’t that right? You want to fight for your country because your country will take care of you and your family while you fight for your country. Isn’t that how it goes? You can’t find a job and so you don a military uniform, grab a weapon and defend America against what, an enemy that is threatening the freedom of Americans? Let me clue you in on something, Americans have never known what freedom is.

First of all, have you taken a good look around lately at what America is descending into? America is descending into a military state. Americans no longer have any rights, much less a goddamn hint of freedom. What you claim to be defending by fighting for never existed. You’re fighting and you don’t even know why. To those who start the wars and conflicts that you are sent into to fight, you are nothing. You are expendable. You are cannon fodder and even you don’t have any rights. You don’t even have the right to see war crimes committed and speak out against them because if you do, you’ll be imprisoned, just ask Chelsea Manning about rights and freedom. Is this the America that you are fighting for, an America that claims to stand for freedom? That shit has always been bullshit and we ALL know that. When the founding fathers sat down and penned the Declaration of Independence, there was no freedom for all. There was no “we hold these truths to be self-evident that ALL men are created equal…endowed with certain unalienable rights.” Many of the founding fathers owned slaves and even though American history has been whitewashed and fucked with, we ALL know that the slaves were not included in any ‘freedom for all’ bullshit. We know that hypocrites stole this country from the original inhabitants, the indigenous peoples. The Indians were also excluded from that ‘freedom for all’, bullshit and don’t you know it!

Now, fast forward to today and tell me, what has changed? The game is still the same, only the names of the hypocrites have changed. You are fighting for a country that never intended to stand for freedom for all. That is just a mere word to give you a false sense of patriotism and to get you to fight for some ‘freedom’ bullshit that never was and never will be. You are fighting for a cause that NEVER WAS. There was never any intention of America standing for freedom for all, just a select few. And guess what? You’re not included in that select few, just as I’m not. But the difference is that I’ve always known this and you have been fooled into believing that you were one of the chosen, the few, the proud, the military. Oh, didn’t that just make you feel so damn good? When you stepped out in that uniform, you didn’t see it, but I did. Your uniform had ‘SUCKER!’ written all over it and I bet you also failed to see the ‘bull’s-eye’ that was located right in the center of your forehead. You are nothing more than a hired gun and a poorly paid hired gun at that. It’s just a ‘job’ to you. It’s not personal. But there, you are wrong because it is extremely personal when you kill someone who has done not a goddamn thing to you. It is extremely personal to that man, woman and child that you murdered in THEIR country, not YOURS. You didn’t even have a right to be there. What about their freedom? Freedom ain’t meant just for you. They were fighting you because you were infringing on THEIR freedom by your very unwelcome presence in their country. You did not have a reason to shoot not one single person in Iraq. You had no goddamn reason to shoot one single person in Afghanistan and guess what? That’s on YOU! You chose to don that uniform, pick up that weapon and simply do as you’re told without question. Even if you knew it was wrong and you did know, you still went right ahead and pointed your weapon and fired and people who had done not a goddamn thing to you, died.

So let’s say that somehow, you make it back to America and what happens? Your family is grateful to have you home, the only thing is, you’re not all of a piece. You’re missing a limb and if you’re not missing a limb, your brain is fucked up. You can’t seem to function and the family is complaining that there ain’t enough food to eat and so what do you do? You sign up for public assistance and when that ain’t enough, the next thing you know, you’re all homeless. Now, you’re not worth shit to anyone, not to your country, not to your family and not to yourself. And you begin to ask yourself, “what was it all for?” And the answer ain’t pretty because the answer is that it was all for nothing. You killed someone, not for freedom, not for democracy, not for justice, not for human rights. You killed someone because the elite warmonger fucks just wanted to continue to line their pockets and the pockets of those who sent you into foreign lands to kill or be killed and they didn’t give a damn about you and they damn sure didn’t give a damn about your family or what happens to you if you can no longer perform. You’re a ‘has been’. You’re like a horse with a broken leg. They’d rather ‘put you down’ then continue to feed and house and clothe you because the warmongers only want you when you’re able to carry out your ‘duty’ of killing and when you’re no longer up to the job because your limbs are missing or your mind is fucked up beyond hope from witnessing some horrifying shit, you’re a liability. You’re no longer an asset, so then, you must get ta steppin’ and they don’t hardly care where you step nor whether you’ve got a leg left to stand on.

By all means, keep pretending that you are fighting for a country that stands for freedom for all and because you think that if you fight for your country, your country will fight for you. If that were the case, then why are so many veterans, homeless? How is your ‘freedom loving’ America fighting for your ass? Why are so many people incarcerated in America? How is ‘freedom’ working out for them when we incarcerate more people than all other developed countries, combined?

If America stands for freedom for all then why the need to kill to obtain that when no country has attacked America since the Pearl Harbor attack in 1941? If Americans are so free, then why must Americans get radiated in order to board an airplane? If Americans are so free, why are Americans spied on every single day by America’s NSA program? Are we all terrorists? If Americans are so free, why are people being detained without due process? If America is all about freedom, then why are innocent people killed by drone strikes all over the world? If America is all about freedom for all then why are military bases all over the world, to ensure freedom for everyone? You know better than that. How can you not fail to understand that the very threat to freedom is coming from you? Yeah, you….the one who is wielding the weapon that is meant to kill an enemy you never had. That is why that at the end of the day, when all is said and done, you will either go insane because you will finally understand that what you have been doing goes against the very idea of freedom and how freedom is born because freedom can never be propagated by using military force or you will become that which is what the warmongers champion, an empty, evil shell that may have once housed a human, but whose humanity has now, fled the building. You will have become freedom’s mortal enemy.

Put down your weapon and let the warmongers fight their own battles. See how many wars they start then. And remember this sad little fact; there are no homeless elite warmonger fucks, just homeless veterans, both male and female. There are no hungry elite warmonger fucks, but there are plenty of hungry veterans lining up at soup kitchens every single day. Remember that when you’re told that the only way to bring freedom to the world is by picking up a weapon. America doesn’t even know what freedom means because America never stood for freedom and it never will and when it comes to fighting for you, when you are no longer any use to the warmongers, you’re on your own.
