Trouble in the Ranks
Private Jeremiah Adler wrote home on his sixth day in Army boot
camp:
"’I am so fucked up right now... I feel that if I
stay here much longer I am not going to be the same person anymore.
I have to GO. Please help... Every minute you sit at home I am
stuck in a shithole, stripped of self-respect, pride, will, hope,
love, faith, worth, everything. Everything I have ever held dear
has been taken away. This fucks with your head... This makes you
believe you ARE worthless shit. Please help. By the time you get
this, things will be worse.’"
Shortly after writing this, his unit was scheduled to ship out,
and Jeremiah went AWOL (absent without leave).

The Darkness Drops Again

The list of appalling and abominable and flatly criminal acts perpetrated by this administration is literally becoming too long to manage. I suppose this is what happens when the entire government is owned by one party. I suppose this is what happens when that one party is owned lock, stock and barrel by a cancerous combination of oil companies, weapons manufacturers and Rapture-happy fundamentalist Christians who think God put dinosaur bones in the ground to mess with our heads.
This is what happens when the ‘opposition party’ sells its people down the river.
