Why Are You Still At Your Computer? Email Print

Why am I? After five years of lies, law-breaking, and disregard for the Constitution, the question of the hour isn't whether or not Bush's own cronies will finally see fit to give him a rebuke. The question is why are we putting up with this crap?

It's certainly not my regular habit to post front page articles singling out a diary on another blog, but this diary by stephdray over at Daily Kos so perfectly mirrors my own frustration, that I want to do more than paste it here. I want to print out a thousand copies and hand it out on street corners.

Know what? I just might.

You didn't used to be like this.
You didn't used to get enraged at George Bush's picture whenever it came on the tube. Now you flip him the bird, even if you're standing in front of the bank of televisions at Best Buy. And you never used to wonder if you should even be shopping at Best Buy. You never used to worry about whether or not your money was financing the destruction of the environment, the constitution, your future, your kid's future. You never needed to know what 'Buying Blue' meant.
