Current mood: pissed off

swift annoyed post
i'm way behind on uploading pics and updating journal, but a quick snarl is called for. i'm deeply unhappy with obama on a number of things, although in the balance i'm still overjoyed to have him as POTUS. i'm royally pissed at our craven, pandering, short-sighted, criminally insane congress.
we have more prisons per capita than any other nation in the world. if there's one thing we can do, it's incarcerate. i've got a max security prison 10 miles down the road. the lights from that fucker create ambient light that interferes with my stargazing. put the terrorist suspects THERE.
when i saw that asshat maundering about the soldiers at levenworth don't want to be near terrorists i nearly went through the monitor. we can KILL them, but we can't have them in a close enough proximity to LEARN anything about them? (and pointedly, whether or not they ARE actually terrorists?????) we can warehouse the worst of rapists, child molesters, serial killers, psychopaths and crazies in our prisons, but we're askeered of the less than 300 at gitmo whose guilt hasn't even actually been established yet?
WTF?????

The problem with the congress is that the public in general is still afraid of the boogeyman (Terrorists) which may be hidng behind every tree. And the detainees at Gitmo, if brought to American soil, will then get the same rights that any other accused is afforded under The Constitution. As long as they are in Gitmo, They Aren't. The American Public just wants it to all go away. They don't want to really "See" what we are - or are not doing to them.
