Shortly after the elections.. We rode our motorcycles to a Democratic Party doings.. Nice ride.. good company and the works, right.. At the auditorium, the leaders of our democratic party were hosting a meeting.. The State Chair and every county and precinct chair from our area was attending along with quite a few of us common folks.. Wheeoooiee.. Those guys were making speeches and congratulating each other for the great jobs they'd done during the campaigns.. What a party so and so organized and threw at such and such ballroom or hotel.. Congratulations what's his face.. helluva shindig, everybody sure had a great time and it was elegant.. Everybody give him a big hand and thanks.. We've just had us on helluva year and everyone here is enthusiastically looking forward to next year, cause we are gonna light 'em up... I finally cornered one of those enthusiastic and celebrating leaders of the democratic party.. Am I at the wrong meeting or something.. Oh no.. we are just expressing our appreciation for all the hard work and dedication of our fine party leaders.. Sheesh.. What freaking planet are you people on ? I asked.. We just got our asses handed to us in these elections, haven't you heard ? Oh.. well all our races didn't go to suit us, but didn't you attend that reception at such and such ballroom.. Old so and so sure did a bang up job putting that one together, didn't cost but a kujillion dollars.. Wait just a minute, here.. I guess you might consider it a blessing these idiots can throw a helluva party using my money, but WTF about winning some elections.. Oh.. he reassured me.. we're having a helluva year, next year.. Fuck that.. not with this bunch.. I want some leaders that know how to win some elections, I don't give a rat's ass if we hold meetings in a vacant lot.. I'm here to win some freaking elections.. That's what I told that clown, alright.. He didn't like it much, either.. Sheesh, my motorcycle was sitting close to the door, so I didn't really give a rip if he liked what I said or not.. "Heckuva job Brownie"... People sitting on rooftops across an entire city and encompassing three states.. People starving to death from lack of water and food.. Help's on the way... People jammed like cattle in a slaughter house on open highways.. out of gas .. sweltering heat.. Flood waters rising by the hour covering miles and miles of Texas and Louisiana coastling.. Hundreds of thousands of people fleeing from that destruction, many with no idea or destination in mind.. Hell their minds were blank.. Bush and Perry jumping in front of those cameras hourly seen to that.. Dammit.. don't we get it yet ? These incompetent nincompoops can't even successfully jack off a stud horse through a rail fence without tearing something up.. What the hell is the matter with all of us, that we'll tolerate this kind of idiotic leadership of our Great United States of America.. Are we all as goddam rotten, corrupt and incompetent as they are... HELL NO.. I'll not concede to that for America.. Bill Walker Irving
