This is mostly a reflection of the fact I have so had it with all that is going on and particularly with how the country is being so completely rippped off right now. All because of Bush and republican policies. The people in charge of our financial system are criminally culpable as far as I'm concerned but nobody seems to give a rats ass that citizens have lost trillions and are on the hook for a whole lot more. How one can trust anything that these clowns are doing right now is beyond me.

Just about any derogatory term I can think of feels proper. Rat fink is dated but then I'm on the wrong side of sixty so for me it is appropriately descriptive. The way people thought about things fifty years ago looks pretty good right about now. How this country has so transformed itself in the last fifty or sixty years, exposing the lie to everything we were taught is thoroughly disheartening. We now have a nation where ethical standards are in the shitter, with no hope of ever changing it.
