WTF

Greetings good citizen, you know I just rejected this phrase as a title for a different topic, partly because it wasn't specific enough and partly because it has become ubiquitous!

Don't you find yourself exclaiming WTF a dozen times a day [if not more] ?

Hell, the term has become so common they even used it as a movie title!

Can't say we weren't warned though...they told us they were 'history creators' and that we would 'marvel' over their actions! As we dawdled/wasted time trying to 'make sense' out of their last action, they would be doing something else, 'equally as confounding' so we could scratch our collective heads and stare in disbelief, exclaiming WTF! the whole time...

Mind you, the phrase didn't become commonplace because it wasn't deserved, it fits the situation perfectly! Many times we would stare in disbelief, muttering WTF (sometimes followed by NOW and other times followed by NEXT) because these actions were taken to 'shake you up' and rattle your faith in 'human decency'. Much of what we found ourselves goggling at was an 'outrage'. Who were they to do such things and then question our 'values'?

Well, it worked. While you were, er, 'distracted' they stripped you of both your citizenship AND your 'rights' (which were tenuous even under the best of circumstances.)

I'll prove I can get a WTF out of you too. These days, thanks largely to the current 'above the law' policing/justice system, your so-called 'rights' depend on the arresting officer BECAUSE 90% OF JUDGES ARE 'POLITICAL APPOINTEES'!

So if you haven't before maybe you should be asking yourself what a person's 'political affiliation' has to do with their interpretation of the law?

I mean WHAT THE PUCK!

Just as religion has NO PLACE in Government, Politics has no place in Justice...so maybe that's why things are so...goofy?

But that's just the tip of the iceberg and you know it! If we were to compile a list, just off the top of your head it would be staggering...with most of you chiming in 'oh yeah' as people mentioned outrages that had been pushed aside by other outrages.

If you believe people 'complain a lot' you'd be correct, what you might have to allow for is much of it is for 'good reason'.

Doesn't help that pseudo-conservatives put 'complainers' down as malcontents that aren't satisfied with anything...(and you only have to disagree with them ONCE to have that moniker hung on you!)

Although, to be fair, so polarized are today's politics that one seldom takes exception to just one miniscule portion, most people that despise conservatism revile the whole package, making you go WTF again as you marvel 'who ARE these people?'

If we're all in this together, what planet do these people wake up on?

Anyone? Bueller? Anyone?

While the corporate owned media doesn't want you asking yourself these kinds of questions it eventually becomes 'the elephant in the room'. Who are these whack-jobs and what are they doing to our country?

I mean WTF? Right?

In order to understand how we got here one needs to keep in mind that creation made possible by 'Morning in America' ; the 'Right-wing echo chamber' that serves to propagandizes neophyte conservative apostates in the ways of conservo-whacko-dom and other precepts of 'magical thinking'.

Like 'tax cuts pay for themselves' and enriching employers will 'super-charge' the economy...yeah, that same economy that is currently on 'life support' because of you can't export jobs and import goods for long before the bottom falls out.

What part of 'ALL ECOMOMIES ARE LOCAL' don't these morons understand?

Because the part that is playing out now is 'no one can live in an economic desert'.

WTF!

But I preacheth to the choir.

[Hopefully I'm getting you good and agitated too. If we don't DO SOMETHING about it, It WON'T STOP!]

A worthy exercise indeed! Start pondering all of the things that made you think WTF and then consider 'why did this happen?'

Did the answer come back 'So a few could be/remain rich'?

Because that IS 'the answer'.

Um, things got pretty messy in here yesterday and I'm trying to avoid a repeat {I honestly don't think your 'gray matter' can take much more punishment. The sensory overload is bordering on 'overwhelming!}

Nope, a couple of minor leaks but that shouldn't even cause a headache!

Alright then! Thank you for letting me inside your head! [WTF!]
