AN OPEN LETTER

Dear Nancy Pelosi;
Dear Howard Dean


Cautionary Note:

This is the year when the world turned upside down on its Axis, when up was down and down up, and Constitutional law didn’t add up to a hill of beans…

It was the year that Disney was taken seriously and Government became the worst kind of joke. It was the year that the gang sent to clean up Washington needed to be cleaned up themselves. It was the year of leaks, squeaks and geeks!

It was the year Speakers became liars; and lobbyists morphed into self-aggrandizing pipsqueaks who screwed their clients…

It was a year of absurdities when the president of the United States said he saw no need for a law to approve eavesdropping.

Why should he?

He’s already above the law.

He’s already given his let them eat cake sneer to the poor who can’t afford both food and their meds…

And forget it if you need medical care. You might as well hire a lawyer and petition Canada to let you in where you can at least die in dignity under clean sheets!

It is the year, California put passive smoke on the toxic list; and it is the year the president said it was okay to go back to coal rubber-stamping the death of another 20,000 people annually.

It is a time when we encourage American businesses to go to China to build shoddy products to be sold back to Americans. But it is also a time when Americans, having seen their jobs disappear, cannot afford to buy even those shoddy products…

Meanwhile, china takes our scrap and makes TVs and for the privilege, we have signed over the US to them to do with as they like.

In the meantime, the Saudis take our gas money and give it back to the terrorists so that they can help Iran build a nuclear bomb to take us out!

In the most absurd turn-around of all, Bush sees his legacy as upholding the views of Tocqueville who specifically warned us of the rise of such people who might transform our democracy into tyranny…

And nary a word from us….
Something to think about in the World of Alice...
