So, I wake up early one morning recently; as usual, my wife's already awake and has MSNBC's "Morning Joe" babbling on the TV. In the thinning fog of my fading REM state I hear the Democratic candidates telling us how they plan to continue to uphold the corporate/military agenda, after which I can just make out Mike Huckabee denouncing John McCain for taking the country too far to the Left. A gaggle of pundits ranging from tepid centrist to shrieking fascist have a bitching, shouting argument over who'll do the best job of bombing and torturing for the next four years. One pundit calls McCain a closet Liberal, another calls Hillary Clinton a Socialist, and I think: jeezus, it's too goddamn' early for this shit. Hillary says she'll keep doing what the Chimp started, Mitt Romney is yelling at Mexicans to "get in line", it's only 7am, and my brain is already hurting. Then, I realize that this has been going on for over a solid year and will continue for another ten months, and I think, "oh, Jeezus, no. Please. Somebody, stop this goddamn' torture. Somebody make it stop. Somebody, anybody -- make...it...STOP...!"
