Running?

Well, kids... since the political cirus of '08 is fast approaching (actually, who am I kidding? It's not fast approaching, it's just spilling into 2007!), I've been thinking about politics a lot lately. I've been thinking how our government is beholden to corporate America. I mean, can you think of one time where the government has sided with the little guy against a corporation in a Supreme Court case? Me either.

And with all these lobbyists crawling over Washington, virtually (and sometimes actually) writing legislation themselves to suit their corporate masters' needs, I've been thinking that next year's election is going to be a great time for the citizens of this great country to take America back from the corporations - like Sergeants and their new Sergeant's Gold Flea and Tick Squeeze-On for Dogs.

And did you hear? They're actually saying that it's faster than Frontline! Faster than Frontline? Great - now everybody will be buying it. So, this mega-corporation is producing chemicals that kill literally millions upon millions of Americans (well, American fleas, ticks and mosquitoes, anyway) - and nobody is doing anything about it!!!

So, I'm thinking that now is the time to come to the aid of the country and find a motivated person of the people to wrest control of this government from Sergeant's and its corporate ilk and return it to its rightful owners: you and me!

Stay tuned, kids... something big's afoot!
