"Give It a Way, Give It a Way, Give It a Way Now..."
The Too-Big-To-Fail bailouts and the endless wars that tanked the economy. The idea that so many prospered while so many others suffered economically during those years. The relatively brief Clinton economic years sandwiched between the two Bush major recessions. A lot of people got fiscally hurt in this country on the timing, don't you remember? Blanket across-industry hiring freezes? Anyone?
The fact that George W. Bush even speaks out today -- and the media cover him still -- shows just how divided and out of touch Americans still are. Read these comments, if you still think GWB and the neo-cons can eke out a future in Washington. It's over. Move on. No more letting the military and intelligence dunderheads "lead" us, we don't care who your father is...
What can you do for your country today? For many, their redemption lies only in the headline, giving away a bit of what they amassed during the years when so many others were forced to sacrifice and fiscally share the pain, for decisions they knew were wrong back then....
I like these comments, but where were these voices when so few of us were speaking out against trying to invade sovereign nations and impose democracy by force back then when it mattered? I remember that too. You were beating your chests, waving your purple fingers, and congratulating yourselves on giving Iraqi women the vote.
Now look around to the divisions the Bush and Obama years have left us. Who's going to tackle introducing clean, efficient and well monitored elections in all counties in our country?
So focused on fixing the alleged sins of others, we destroyed trust here at home, sold out our own citizens, and continue to focus on the deadened celebrity culture that lifts no one. Read the comments and think?
