The Stakes


No more like this.

There’s just under one month left before the election.

And I don’t know about you, but I’m fucking sick of looking atthis. For five-and-a-half years I’ve been checking that page. Almost 4,200 of our brothers and sisters have had their lives abbreviated by this clusterfuck of a war. It has to end. I know the economy’s in the shitter, and McCain is a crazy old coot, and gas costs four bucks a gallon. But let’s not forget about this stupid fucking unnecessary war. Hell’s not hot enough for the fucks who are responsible for it. This war is a theft, and what’s being stolen is not only treasure–it’s human lives, too. Hundreds of thousands of them, and surely more to follow.

Those are the stakes.
