Up from 4am reading about the debt ceiling and Obama and Boehner and credit ratings and class warfare and a looming financial crisis and it all makes me so queasy. 

While I voted for Obama I’m not a fan-girl who is going to sit here and say he’s been a fantastic president or he’s totally blameless but holy hell, god damn you, Boehner. God damn you and the Republicans who would plunge your own country (and in effect, most of the world) into a financial tailspin, who would basically promote poverty, welfare and the removal of helping hands to people trying to better themselves and their lives, who would have the balls to look us in the eye and tell us this country is better off if we give to the rich and take from the poor. Damn you. 

For fuck’s sake, get your shit together, Congress. That means you, Obama. That means you, Democrats. And that sure as fuck means you, Republicans. Our future is at stake and I am willing to bet most of the tea party sympathizers who are sitting in congressional seats are only thinking about ways to keep the end result of all this from looking anything like Obama is a hero. They’ll do anything to make sure he’s not re-elected even if it comes at the expense of their own fucking country.

Sickening. 

Ditto.
