[Kerry in Jack Nicholson voice] "You I can't handle the truth."
The smug, self-satisfied arrogance of these people is flabberghasting.
The sheer rudeness, and contempt, they display towards common citizens ( i.e., people too small to do them any good, or harm... ) is revolting.
I truly hope they have impeached themselves with their own words.
My life, your life- the lives of those nearest to us- is not some sort of inconsequential game, but that is how we are treated by these self-appointed "betters" who think they know better than us how to conduct our affairs.
I think it's time to send them a wake-up call... by standing up and pushing back, and sounding off. The Soap box and ballot box and jury box are to be preferred, but there is always that box of last resort. I hope they have better sense than to force us there.
