Revolution 2007

The American people don't matter...we elect 435 Congresspeople, 100 Senators, and the President and Vice President...the President picks his appointments and a very small group of people basically decide what is best for the American people...Over 70% of the American population wants to bring the troops home...How have our elected officials responded to our request? Over 70% of the American population wants stem cell research. King George vetoed the stem cell bill...The King's first veto in six years...the illusion of democracy makes us think our votes count, our voice counts, we matter...when in reality, 537 elected officials make decisions in the best interests of 300 million Americans...democracy has become an illusion...the voice of the people no longer matters...I may be to cynical...but our elected officials don't listen to the American people...only big business and lobbyists...our government decides the American cannot have access to prescription drugs from Canada and Europe because the drugs are not safe...like droves of Canadians and Europeans are dropping dead from prescription drugs...will Vioxx continues to kill people...Avandia increases heart problems...Paxil causes birth defects...Purdue Pharma just settled a lawsuit over its Oxycontin...the FDA and big pharm only have the best interests of the American people in mind...that is why they don't want us buying unsafe drugs from Canada and Europe when we can get plenty of overpriced and unsafe prescription drugs right here in America...not to mention marking up AIDS drugs to the point where patients cannot afford them when the drugs cost about $2 a pill...the American people just don't matter...No one explains the Presidential Directive that makes King George Dictator Bush...another story the American people the people will never totally hear about...we just don't matter...we are voiceless in Bushworld... If we don't revolt soon, our voices really won't matter...let the revolution begin...we need an American Revolution that mirrors the French Revolution...and I for one will lead the way...Can you hear the people sing, singing the songs of angry men...it's the music of the people who will not be slaves again...when the beating of your hearts, echoes the beating of the drums, there is a revolution about to start when tomorrow comes...will you join in our crusade, who will be strong and stand with me???
