Meet the new boss… Same as the old boss.
The Who wrote a song called “Won’t Get Fooled Again” in 1971. I’m sure you’ve heard it, just about every American can probably sing a few lines from it.
And therein lies the irony.
Even with the sentiment “Won’t Get Fooled Again” creates, we’re still blind to the painfully obvious cycle of bullshit we are fed every election year.
Think I’m wrong? Chew on this for a minute: There are over 300 million people in this country. Do you really think that these two jack-holes are the best candidates we could come up with? If you think so, don’t bother checking your pulse, you’re already brain dead.
Both of these douchebags have a history of scandal, deceit, and lining their pockets with your money. But that’s OK! We can just vote for the ‘lesser of 2 evils’ and save ourselves the headache, right?!
Here’s an experiment, I’ll put red-colored shit in my right hand, and a blue-colored shit in my left. Now you choose a hand. Anyone with half a brain would refuse the choices, right? Not us! Not America!
We’d rather vote for shit that’s our favorite color and hope for the best
So, good luck to you America. I’ve had it. You can keep your election, you can keep your cycle of bullshit. For the first time, I’m proud to say “I’m not voting”. Good luck to you and whichever asshat you vote for… Not that it makes a hand-full-of-shit’s difference anyway.
I think your premise that most Americans can sing a few lines of “We Won’t Get Fooled Again” is off. Just ask around the office of people under 40 and you will cry some.

Wow.
I thought I was really over the edge with my society meltdown, but this is a level I hadn’t even begun to strive for. I’m sensing alot of anger here – so well hidden in that cute, unassuming package.

I’m going to go put my flag outside for ya.
