Dear Mr. President...

This is my politcal entry, so I'm putting it behind a cut so not to offend anyone...

I am fucking SICK of America. I'm sick of the people, I'm sick of the government, and most of all I'm sick of that fucking son of a bitch in office.

There are homeless people everywhere, a good majority are veterins, there are people who still haven't been able to rebuild houses from Hurricane Katrina, people are jobless. The "No Child Left Behind" Act was a fucking joke. Nobody was helped. We're in a war that has killed and is currently killing our troops for nothing. There is absolutely no point for this God forsaken war and I don't see one appearing any time soon. These poor families don't get to say 'goodbye' to their sons and daughters because of this prick enforcing this pointless war.

And, as for gay marriage...it's not about the marriage issue. It's simply about humanity. And, we're not treated as humans no matter how much people try to sugar coat it. It not only hurts me, but it hurts me to think about everybody else. I'll sit and think about Lara, Sean, Dusty, Nicole, Jaz, Matty...and think how much it hurts them. I know Sean doesn't really say it outloud, but I know part him knows and hurts. And with Dusty, especially, he's older than all of us, and I can't imagine what he had to go through when he was our age. I just can't take it anymore. I can't take seeing my friends hurting, and I can't take hurting, myself. It's just not fucking fair. And, I'm sick of fighting. I shouldn't have to fight for human rights. I shouldn't have to be afraid to show who I am in fear of being beat for it. I shouldn't have to question whether or not my "lifestyle" is correct. I should be able to go express my pride at a festival and not hear people shouting that I'm going to Hell. I shouldn't have to look down the road a few years and wonder if I'll have healthcare and if I'll be allowed to adopt children or simply put a ring on Lara's finger out of love.

I don't hate this country. And I don't hate the government. But, in all honesty, I truly hate George W. Bush to the point of I wish him back all the pain he has caused this country the past eight years. I want him to know what it's like to have to work fourty hours a week just to pay a bill, to know what it's like to be homeless because the ruler of the "freeland" was too damn lazy to help, to know what it's like to send a family member to war and the next time he sees them is in a casket, and most of all, I want him to know the pain of not being considered a human.

I can't take anymore of this. I pray to God that change comes soon, because if it doesn't, I don't know what we're going to go.
