And they say the American people are stupid.
I disagree with that statement wholeheartedly. Then again, when the top news story of the day is a politician admitting he fathered a child out of wedlock while still married to his cancer stricken wife and not the highest court in the nation ruling that corporations can have unlimited spending on political candidates, then I start to wonder where our priorities are. I wonder what is ruining the fabric of the American family, allowing homosexuals the same equal protection under the constitution of the United States as heterosexual couples or this notion that every family has to be modeled after "Leave it to Beaver" and families are splitting up because that goal is unrealistic. Explain to me how is it playing the race card to point out that the majority of prisoners in America are Black and Hispanic yet the majority of people who are arrested for crimes are White. Why do you have to have a religion when you do believe in a higher source that is greater than us?
And they say the American people are stupid.
This country revolutionized society with the invention of the internet yet is on the verge of destroying it with the invention of fast food. In the country where a man that 200 years ago would have been picking cotton is now our President is the same country that won't give men and women equal pay. And why the hell is a speech given by our President, the highest position in the country have to be pushed back an hour for some music show competition?
And they say the American people are stupid.
The American people are NOT stupid. But dammit our priorities are screwed up when a pizza can get to your house faster than an ambulance! Hopefully something or someone can change that.
