A Trip to the VA

I recently was forced to go and receive a check up at the nearest Veteran's hospital. I say that I was forced because that is simply what it is. My health has been in steady decline for many a day and until the last possible moment I waited to go and get seen at this place. I knew what was awaiting me there, and quite honestly, I would almost rather just die than go and get a check up there. My body finally won out with the urging of my love, Olivia, and I made an appointment to get seen for the conditions I suffer from. Any help is better than no help right? I surely do wish that were so. Walking into the facility leaves you believing that you just walked into the most vast, never ending structure of all time; and you know you just passed fifteen other structures just as massive if not more massive to get to the one you're in. We walked hundreds and hundreds of yards through vast hallways to reach my primary care location. It reminded me very much of a little maze of rooms trapped in a much vaster maze of rooms, contained in even more rooms, divided by a few more rooms. From time to time during stretches of the walk you are overtaken by the smell of musky hospital sourness that hangs in spots like fog, thick, invisible fog. A nurse took my blood pressure which first read 169 over 111, at which point, she gave me a "damn you alright there sir" look and politely informed me that she would do it again. She did it again and again the numbers read 169 over 111. That was that, she said I was a Little borderline and sent me on my way to see the doctor, hum, nurse practitioner. 169 over 111 is not borderline, it is your are about to be fucking dead and I will always believe that disabled vets rate doctors, not nurse practitioners. These cathedral fucking buildings and the United States Government can't afford a doctor for its warriors; that is some serious horse shit and it should not be happening. Keep cutting the budget and giving tax breaks to the ultra wealthy while the bravest and best of us mire away in obscrurity in vast halls of nothing but waste, yea, America you should be real proud... Damn

Fuck You Red

There is not a single polititian in this entire country that I would trust with a bag of piss, but moreover, there is not a single republican I would trust with anything. Here we are again. We as a nation have once again handed power over to a group of people who have already proven they will run this country into the ground to make a buck for those with way too many bucks already. Fuck you red and your misguided beliefs. Fuck you red for being a bunch of blow horns for the asshole elite. These tea party fuckers don't give a shit about anything that is going to help anyone who needs help. Where the fuck were they when we started our trillion dollar death jamboree in Iraq? Where was their ranting and raving about fiscal responsibility then? Where were their fat mouths when we sent a few dozen troops into Afganistan to try and catch Bin Laden? They were sitting their dumb asses at home being all fat and happy that a republican was the president and they didn't give a fuck what that piece of shit was doing to the nation or world. Now there has been a landslide in the House of Representatives unlike anything in memory, and it has come due to a bunch a hypocritical fools gathering all their bullshit into one pile and turning it into a sandwhich that this entire nation will be forced to take a bite of. Their platform is over spending on the part of the government, and yet they were the spineless turds who cheerleaded this nation into a war based on lies and misinformation. It was their stinking Bush that set the strategy for the war in Afganistan that has proven utterly useless and will not be recovered from. Yep, these sorry ass clown human beings have once again taken power, but rest assured they'll never take responsibility. Fuck you red, you're stupid, and I fart in your general direction.
