Get Off your Butt and Do something – Protest!

Bush is ending his last European tour. Protesters in Europe take the time to come out and gather to give their opinion of how they feel about our US president and his failed policies. BUT NOT US! NO, We don’t, we sit on our asses and complain to each other.
In Europe and many places around the globe, if the people hate the policies they will join together and make their anger known — so what the Hell is wrong with us?
The British crowds were held away from Bush today in London, they separate them so Bush doesn’t have to see them, (AND WHY NOT?) And yet, the protesters still comes out!
In 2003 at Bush’s visit,
From AFP:
…scuffles broke out after protestors tried to breach police lines sealing off Whitehall, the main government thoroughfare in the heart of London where the two leaders were meeting.
Some 13 people were arrested in the ensuing violence, Scotland Yard, although the situation returned to a tense calm before the end of the Downing Street evening meeting.
Bush’s last visit to London, in November 2003, saw three full days of protests, with tens of thousands of people marching past Downing Street marshalled by 5,000 police officers.

Why aren’t our own people organizing protests for what Bush has put the country and our military through? Bush thinks he can do no wrong! How is it the Europeans are able to express their opinions of outrage by organizing and shouting and carrying signs for their disapproval of what OUR president does, but we just let this president victimize the whole country and take it?
There should be one national day of protest around the USA before the two ‘evil doers, Bush/Cheney’ leave office. They have caused us great turmoil. They have ruined our image, they have lied about everything from Iraq & WMD, to Jessica lynch, to torture, to pretending to not know who leaked the CIA agent, Valerie Plame and giving no bid contracts to their rich friends. They have put us in great debt, in a greater depression and more of us are losing good jobs and our homes and have to decide whether we should eat or buy our medicines. And as for Oil — for 8 years no one has done shit — why are we not up in arms over this Administration? Why are we so complacent and the Europeans so willing to show their disapproval?
We are indeed lazy Americans. We are miserable and don’t express it – Please, take the time to write your Congress men and women and tell them what you feel – Give them a piece of your mind, it costs nothing to email and maybe it will make them think about how ‘we the people’ know that not only has Bush Fucked us over for the last eight years, but so has Congress!
Give them something to worry about, like whether they will be re-elected or not! Isn’t it time our government worked for us? Tell them what you want and lay it on thick!
Give em Hell – our government has become a ghost of what it was even 8 years ago, we have sacrificed a lot in our freedoms in order for Bush to gain control and screw us and we let him get away with it – shame on us.
Tell Bush,Cheney and congress what you think! And use all Caps! They will know you are yelling – and you should!
