Allowing homosexuals to marry will not end civilization.

Roe vs Wade will not end civilization.

Corrupt governments and money hungry corporations will be the downfall of civilization.

Louie is part of the problem, not part of the solution.

The U.S. is not and was never intended to be a Theocracy !!!

Our corrupt politicians should be focusing on the following;

unemployment
hunger
homelessness
Wall Street thievery
corruption in all branches of government
price fixing of commodities
the rising cost of education
the unbridled power of the MIC brass
our watch dog organizations laxed attitude at corruption
the escalating police brutality in this country
the prison industry; 2.3 million U.S. citizens incarcerated
restrictions on peaceful protesters
voting rights restrictions
insider trading by our corrupt politicians and their staff members
the monopoly of our media
labeling U.S. citizens as terrorists for dissenting
empire building under the guise of spreading democracy
allowing torture to be part of the U.S. legacy; failure to prosecute the Bush administration by the Obama administration. The Obama administration carries on the legacy; force feeding prisoners in Guantanamo.


Corporations are NOT people. I do not care if the 'Supreme Court' has declared they are.
Money should not be equated with the amount of free speech one is entitled to; money in our political arena.

U.S. politicians are not interested in fixing what truly ails this country.
They are responsible for what ails this country.
Our government is run by corporations that purchase the politicians they want to represent them and their interests.
