Seriously. This guy has pulled some lame shit, like threatening to stall important bills, and people actually seem upset over his death.

[circletimessquare]

you pay the recently departed some due respect, no matter what they did in life, or you've lost your essential humanity and betrayed whatever nobility you think you stand for but obviously don't, you asshole. the guy was not adolf hitler, no matter how much his politics makes your blood boil. get the fuck over yourself

if you can't do that, then perhaps you are just as self-serving and stupid in your craven motivations as you accuse ted stevens of being

the politics in this country has become too mean spirited: more blood sport self-destruction than frank and intellectually honest discussion. and there are plenty of you, from the right and the left, who are more interested in your own petty tit-for-tat blind partisan team sports, than the essential search for progress for this country. what's the matter? policy discussions too boring? want to call each other socialists and fascists? that excites you? go ahead, ruin this country with your loud boorish simpleminded pettiness you assholes

too many of you are too willing, from the right and the left, to step all over the dignity of your fellow human beings (and your own dignity, not that you realize that) in the pursuit of scoring public relations spin points. so many blogging assholes and so many trolling astroturfing scumbags regurgitating their obvious typical mindless lowest common denominator political opinions on every message board, from THE RIGHT AND THE LEFT. you all think you are the goddamn diety-appointed spokesperson for your ill-thought out dimwitted cause. when the truth is all you fucking armchair political philosophers are worth shit and the content of your thoughts are utterly useless. from THE RIGHT AND THE LEFT. 99% of you do the greatest service to the cause you care about by SHUTTING THE FUCK UP

the politics in the united states has lost all dignity, all intelligence, and all meaning and is now nothing more than a petty high school football game for simpletons

and most of you have completely forgotten about what is at stake. and it is obvious when you forget decency, respect, and simple human decorum, that you don't actually care about you fellow americans anymore, you just care about being the loudest most intelligence-defying piece of shit in the room, be damned the consequences to your country, and be damned the consequences to your character

so listen up, asshole: you respect the recently departed

YOU. RESPECT. THE. RECENTLY. DEPARTED.

do you hear me you fuck?

show some DECENCY. show some CHARACTER. show something of what is missing from the shallow dimwitted politics in this country, you small stupid little man

now fuck off, and try, for once in your pathetic propaganda-addled life, to be a decent human being, you smarmy little piece of shit

ALL OF YOU

i HATE what politics in this country has become: a boatload of loud ignorant trolls

THE GUY JUST DIED. AND YOU'RE DANCING ON HIS CORPSE. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS COUNTRY IS YOU

FUCK

ALL

OF

YOU /rant over, moving on
