Democrats in Congress -- Do your duty!

by The Alchemist, Unknown News      February 1, 2007

Another open letter to the Democrats in Congress:

What are you waiting for? It doesn't get any better than this.

 
Previous letter to Congress:
We do not want Democrats,
we just hate the Republicans
This president has lost the support of the people. He is openly contemptuous of the Constitution. He is an out-front criminal. Impeach him already. We will back you.

You may spend too much time listening to insiders and pundits. Here in the heartland, I hear the voices of the people and we HATE this war and our arrogant president.
My 90-year old neighbor, a lifelong Republican, wants impeachment. The blue-collar fag-haters down at the gun club hate him. The blue-haired retirees down at the bingo parlor hate him. Even the slick yuppies down at the wine bar hate him. Every American with two brain cells to rub together hates him. He has used our goodwill, our money, and our blood like a crack whore gone wild.

The only Americans who still support the guy are the fundie delusionals who believe the earth is 6,000 years old, and even they are beginning to doubt. Will you stand up already and do your duty?

We want our liberties back -- habeas corpus, freedom from search, seizure, et al. We want the odious Patriot Act to be repealed. We want to not be arrested for wearing an anti-Bush t-shirt. We want our sports drinks back, fer crissakes! And most of all, we want this war over -- NOW. Here's a clue: any Democratic candidate who will stand up and clearly state that this war was an illegal, misconceived crime from the start will win. We are desperate for some real leadership (Go Jim Webb!).

This administration has been dirty from day one, when it used illegal voter purges (Florida) and a bloody "one time only" Supreme Court decision that stinks to high heaven to get itself appointed (NOT elected). In 2004 voter intimidation and outright vote fraud in Ohio and New Mexico handed these criminals another election. They lie, cheat, steal on a scale that would make Nixon cringe in shame. You need to stand up and clean house.

The Downing street memo proves Bush lied us into war. Spending half a trillion dollars while our countrymen don't have basic healthcare is criminal. Shedding the blood of innocents abroad is surely the epitome of "high crimes and treason." And carelessly wasting the lives of honest American servicemen (to say nothing of the pain to their shattered families) is beyond forgiveness. And all for what? So oil billionaires can become richer? So defense contractors can continue to fatten themselves on the lifeblood of our people? No-bid contracts to Halliburton? Are you kidding? These bastards don't even have the decency to try to hide their crimes. And YOU are letting it happen!

What are you waiting for? Stand up and do your duty. Even if you Democrats are only marginally more honest than the Republicans, you will be seen as heroes, here and around the world. You have everything to gain and nothing to lose. We don't believe these liars anymore. We want NEW liars. Just think, after you bring them down, you can get away with anything… What are you waiting for?
