It was recently announced on the news that americans are turning in ever greater numbers to the use of prescription sleep aids, despite the decided drawbacks to their long term dosage.
and while the large pharmaceutical companies, the perennial enemies of the Democratic party for continuing to conspire to sell drugs at a profit, seem to be reaping a windfall as a result of the upswing in this practice, it appears that there are a number of reasons why we need that extra bit of chemical assistance to slumber.
With Christmas and its accompanying nocturnal visions of sugar plums well behind us, and as our stomachs churn in fear for yet another night's tossing and turning, we follow that evening ritual of washing ambien down our collective craws, hoping for the best and praying for the appearance of a limited number of fence jumping sheep.
While Democratic nightmares feature a successful President Bush, they would mean, in turn, greater security and prosperity for us poor uncouth and uncultivated boors who actually need to make a living, support families and survive. Meanwhile our evening perditions feature the unremitting yelling and screaming at alito, the wearisome caterwauling of Democratic kingfish, further preposterous trumpery of the likes of aBC and CNN and the daily fabrications of The New York Times.
With america at war, with our kids being killed by terrorists overseas, with our southern border acting like a sieve and serving to keep only the honest folk out (and it appears that there's mighty few of them heading north), with Iran busily building an Islamic bomb, with cartoons serving as the catalyst for mayhem and murder on a monstrous scale in the happy and dreamlike paradise that serves as the Muslim world, with a totally corrupt UN serving as an impedance rather than a help in the world, with Hamas and Iran still calling for the destruction of Israel, with Osama calling for our destruction, and with everything else, it's a daunting world out there.
With all of these nefarious activities going on, the Democratic party insists on doing nothing to protect america and us at home, while they are observed busily working on their favorite pass-times every day on national television, all of which result in a diminution of our security, an increase in the rights of our sworn enemies and serve as a slap in the face of honest folk.
In the US Senate today, Democrats, with the aid and comfort of arlen Spector, will attempt to further weaken President Bush in a time of war by hindering and, if at all possible, thwarting him in his efforts at protecting us. and by their activities, they will attempt to strengthen the rights available to those that would attempt to kill and maim us. and this will happen even though a growing majority of us want a strong President to continue providing us with a maximum of the security he is capable of supplying. Within the darkness, we see the disembodied faces of the blathering bullies on the Senate Judiciary Committee jumping up over the dainty fence once inhabited by the prancing sheep.
at Coretta Scott King's funeral Tuesday, the distasteful diatribes fomented about Katrina and Iraq by the sorry likes of Jesse Jackson and the Rev. al Sharpton, the sad pointed comments on wiretapping from the failed former President and erstwhile carpenter Jimmy Carter, the cat calls from the floor accompanying the disgraced former President and Hillary Clinton's appearance at the podium and the pointed intemperate slurs concerning the poor directed at President Bush by the Rev. Joseph Lowery, reminded us of the ill-tidings and the outright propaganda found at the late, lamented Paul Wellstone's "funeral" and its accompanying media circus. With our eyes closed, we discern the puffed and hate spewing visages of these "liberal" Democrats floating over the fence, once so delightfully overrun by our favored barnyard denizens.
The cartoon wars continue unabated. american newspapers, cowed by the enormous forces of overweening political correctness, apparently akin to the stupendous vacuum energy driving the acceleration of the universe, into refusing to run images of an obviously vicious and deadly Mohammed, recoil in horror when the less progressive forces of decency implore them to recall cartoons depicting a quadriplegic US soldier, run for blatantly obvious reasons of liberal political gain. as we flail about on our pallets, waiting to see the sheep which never come, sedated by prescriptions which no longer work, we begin to grasp the utter cowardice displayed by the haughty purveyors of libertine ideals as they happily sacrifice free expression and rapidly genuflect before a band of indiscriminate cutthroats while continuing to mercilessly flail our own brave fighting men and women--soldiers who are fighting to protect the same members of the fourth estate from the very predations they're already bowing to.
High profile Democratic Senators, like the newly minted defense expert and junior senator from New York, are still beating the old body armor drum without the slightest scintilla of understanding about its use, its weight and the importance of understanding the nature of the operation, the ammunition weight to body armor teaser and military affairs in general. a soldier on patrol must make many choices, and often different ones from those a soldier in a convoy or on a base will make. Soldiers will often choose to carry ammunition and water at the expense of bulky, hot and restrictive body armor for what may purport to be obvious reasons. and the hide-bound and singular hammering away at this straw man without any understanding of these inherent problems only serves to show the ignorance of the drummer and to lay bare another vitriolic means of attack on the President. Sleeplessness is compounded by these inane attempts at humiliation and no amount of sleep aids, prescription or otherwise, can seem to alleviate the dearth of slumber or the echoes of these attacks.
Last week, Julian Bond, the leader of one of america's most esteemed and liberal civil rights organizations, the NaaCP, calmly equated Republicans' ideas of civil rights with the american flag and that of the Nazis, a common liberal metaphor and one Mr. Bond has often repeated, and goes on to say that the current administration uses particular members of his cabinet as protection against human rights criticisms. Those of us with insomnia hear the vicious, purulent and hate filled speech of the "liberal" civil rights leadership on the loud speakers this side of dreamland and watch the bloated likenesses of its outrageous promoters drifting over the quaint palisades once populated by reticent and harmless wooly animals.
Kim Gandy, the highly touted progressive president of the NOW, was so overwhelmed by alito's confirmation that she began cursing a blue streak during her talk radio appearance. Poor Kim is so used to swearing at the slightest provocation that she didn't even notice her string of blasphemies until warned by the host to take it a little easy on the air. How can we possibly sleep knowing that all feminism has meant for many women is the ability to curse like a longshoreman.
No, america is not sleeping well of late. With the scenes of our impending doom growing ever starker while the scions of liberal thought fritter away our future to the tune of their hatred for our President, I'm surprised that there isn't a mountain of sleeping pills beside every house in america.
