Disgrace the Nation

Some president's have led strongly and quietly, even boringly, confidently guiding the nation like a great ship through the seas of history.  Other's, such as Kennedy and Johnson, illuminated and inspired the nation with every word they spoke and every action they took.  Lyndon Baines Johnson, LBJ, was a crude down to Earth Texan who's strength of genuine character and knowledge of government leadership enabled him to lead the nation toward equality for all Americans in both the rights and benefits of citizenship, starting with the right to vote and Medicare.  Ever since he led our nation, there has been a sincere drive towards 'health care for all.'  That's a carefully chosen neutral set of words.  It means 'Universal Health Care,' which even the poorest most primitive countries in the world provide to their starving citizens.  It may not be much more than a tent out in the bush staffed by Médecins Sans Frontières, but its still free universal care.  Only America stands out, alone, where the poor are routinely denied one of the most basic of human rights on Earth.

It took the previous president, with the wisdom and presence of mind of all previous presidents, to ultimately create the start of health care for all in America.  The flaw was that the opposition right wing forced him to create a Capitalist health care system, when true world-standard universal health care is inherently socialist, of the people and for the people.  When you have a system based on useless middle men determined to make money, to mine the health and safety of the nation for greedy gain, you have something that is made of poison pills instead of medicine.  Instead of straightforward provision of health care simply paid for by taxes as in the rest of the civilized world, you have a system where over 70 percent of the cost is stolen by people who inserted themselves in between health care and people by 'selling' the health care.  They don't provide the health care, they simply sell it; it doesn't even belong to them!  All that money that could pay for medicine, modern hospitals and clinics, training doctors and more, goes straight down the toilet into their pockets.  Of course the cost keeps going up; the right wing way of doing things is designed to do that, to suck the blood of the poor till not a drop is left.

But, it was designed so cleverly that it worked anyway, giving health care to millions and millions of Americans.  That annoyed the hell out of the far right gang of politicians whose mean spirited souls could not stand the decency of health care for all.  And so the rat leading the nation, set out to kill health care for all by supposedly cleverly substituting a plan that would minimalize healthcare while maximizing the middlemen's bloodsucking.  Ahh, such a clever plan hatched in the dark of night by the darkest of hearts!  You would think that that plan would be killed by those who care, screaming bloody murder.  But, in fact, it was killed by far right wing Congressional Cockroaches opposed to even the pretense of providing health care to all.

So much for that; lets move on to treason!  The foul stink of treason gets higher and higher every day.  More moral men might have resigned by now and fled into the night never to be heard from again.  But not these Cretans.  It all began with word that some of the top campaign team members had somehow had individual meetings with Russia's top American diplomat at the Republican National Convention in Cincinnati.  Sounds OK, right?  WAIT a minute!  WHAT the hell was HE doing there!?  Talk about Chutzpah!  Nothing against him, mind you; he was just doing his job.  The real question, never asked, was WHO gave him a 3D Holographic VIP Executive Badge-ticket which let him in to wander the exclusive back room halls and meeting rooms rubbing shoulders with the top party leaders, and platform committee members, like he owned the place?  WTF?

And that was just the kitchen door.  There were more meetings with more current administration appointees, in Washington DC, in Moscow, and all over hell and back, with awards and money flowing freely along with the celebratory vodka.  HOLY S...!  And everyone is acting like it was just business as usual.  I'm apoplectic!  Sure sure, its OK, really; after all its not like they were communists or anything, they are Capitalists just like us.  These were all simply biznizz meetings about normal business like hacking, and propaganda, and fake news, and stealing email and who knows what.  It stinks!

Enough of that, lets move on to the environment.  Of course, killing the environment is a lot like treason, only its global treason.  Even the leader of Russia is an environmentalist.  There was some story years ago where he flew and ultra light plane, dressed as a duck, to lead a bunch of birds to their spring breeding grounds; something like that, I probably don't remember it right.  Anyway it didn't work.  The birds followed him, landed, took a poo, and then took off an flew right back to where they came from.  Who knows; what matters was that he was willing to inadvertently make a fool of himself for the sake of the environment.  But not our old goat.  I really can't think of anything more mean than gleefully killing the environment!  There was a front page picture in the newspaper, towards the end of March, showing him signing the papers to authorize destroying the environment, beaming with glee and pride, surrounded by grinning grim suit and tie right wing monsters all happy as hell.  So what if their own children and grandchildren choke and die gasping for breath; there' s money to be made raping the Earth, with mines and huge fracking drills squirting toxic chemicals into our soil, poisoning our wells and rivers, and nothing else matters!

So, there you have it.  Every single day in every way we are led by a man determined to disgrace the nation.  Even as I write this, new scandals bubble up from the stinking sewer muck every hour, day and night.  There was a time when those righteous right wing servants of Satan could say that we proud patriotic gay service men and women were a bad influence on their sons and daughters serving our nation.  Sure, listen to the voice of pure hate emanating from the foul stinking sulfuric rump of evil.  Speak up, before that too is forbidden.
