Rage 99

I was thinking on the way home from work in my car that has no air conditioning because as we all know, air conditioners in cars rarely last past 100,000 miles and make a great excuse for getting a new car. That’s why car manufacturers put bullshit ac’s in cars. Anyway, I was thinking about how this was the 3rd day in a row of 99 degree temps and how anything over 90 degrees was a rarity when I was a kid. So I gotta say Al Gore had his shit together …Inconvenient Truth baby! So I get home and stand in front of my ac for 10 minutes because I’m sweatin’ my ass off. Then I turn on the tv to relax for a few minutes and I see that oil is still leakin’ in the Golf. Haven’t they fixed that shit yet? Why ain’t these f-ckers in jail? Millions of gallons of oil going through a pipe into a boat and they got no f-cking plan to stop it if it f-cks up? Way to go BP, you stupid f-cks! Oh, and thank you for keeping an eye on this shit for us…whatever Department we are paying taxes out the ass for watchin’ this shit. Also, gotta’ give a shout out to my buddies at Exxon who dragged their asses through Court for 20 years and ended up paying 10% of what they were originally ordered to pay. Did you send thank you cards to the Supreme Court for kissin’ your asses you collective pile of shit! How many thousands of lives did you ruin? Do you think about that…f-ck no! A few years ago I laughed when I saw something’ on the web that said the 911 attack was planned. Now that shit was even too far out there for me to believe. Then I saw Mr. Bush tell a reporter that he saw the first plane hit the first building on tv before he went into that school. Think about that for a minute. JFK assassination…after years of reading books on this and seeing documentaries…I found out that even the Zapruder film has been spliced and diced from the get-go to possibly cover up a head shot from Kennedy’s left side. I said ‘possibly’ because I just don’t F-cking know and none of us will until somebody that does tells us the truth…the truth. The one thing that plays over and over in my head that points me in one direction is the two secret service agents being ordered back into their car filled with other secret service agents and away from the back of Kennedy’s car just before it headed down Dealy Plaza and seeing the one agent shrug his shoulders twice…as if to say…’why the f-ck do you want me to sit in that car when my job is to protect the President.’ I bet you haven’t seen that, have you? Do I hate this Country, No! I love this country. What I hate is lies. What I hate is being manipulated. What I hate is greed…and those things are working their way into our Government, our Corporations, Our media and our thoughts. Too many of us feel we are betraying country, neighbors and friends by questioning what is happening. It is possible to love and question. There’s a great line from a Clint Eastwood movie; “Don’t piss down my back and tell me it’s rainin“.’Damn it’s HOT! I’m nobody…but if I was somebody and this was published in Rolling Stone and one week later they found me in my apartment…the victim of a drug overdose…would you question or would you accept…question or accept….question…
