Now You Get Mad
We had eight years of Bush and Cheney, but now you get mad!
You did not get mad when the Supreme Court stopped a legal recount and appointed a President.
You did not get mad when Cheney allowed Energy company officials to dictate energy policy.
You did not get mad when a covert CIA operative got ousted.
You did not get mad when the Patriot Act got passed..
You did not get mad when we illegally invaded a country that posed no threat to us.
You did not get mad when we spent over 600 billion dollars (and counting) on said
illegal war.
You did not get mad when over 10 billion dollars just disappeared in Iraq .
You did not get mad when you found out we were torturing people.
You did not get mad when the government was illegally wiretapping Americans.
You did not get mad when we did not catch Bin Laden.
You did not get mad when you saw the horrible conditions at Walter Reed.
You did not get mad when we let a major U. S. city drown.
You did not get mad when we gave a 900 billion dollar tax break to the rich.
You did not get mad when, using reconciliation; a trillion dollars of our tax dollars were redirected to insurance companies for Medicare Advantage which cost over 20 percent more for basically the same services that Medicare provides.
You did not get mad when the deficit hit the trillion dollar mark, and our

You finally got mad when the government decided that people in America
deserved the right to see a doctor if they are sick. Yes, illegal wars,
lies, corruption, torture, stealing your tax dollars to make the rich
richer, are all okay with you, but helping other Americans... oh hell no!
