We Can Be Heroes

These are the folks whose policies helped devastate our middle class. They drove our economy into a ditch. And we got in there and put on our boots and we pushed and we shoved and we were sweating and these guys were standing, watching us, sipping on a Slurpee.

And they were pointing at us saying, “How come you’re not pushing harder? How come you’re not pushing faster?”

And then when we finally got the car up—and it’s got a few dings and a few dents, it’s got some mud on it, we’re going to have to do some work on it—they point at everybody and say, “Look at what these guys did to your car!”

After we got it out of the ditch! And then they’ve got the nerve to ask for the keys back.

I don’t want to give them the keys back. They don’t know how to drive!

So your luxury smartphone—literally, the best that money can buy—has a minor problem if you hold it a certain way. Okay then. Move your finger and go back to worrying about something important, like the oil-spill that has literally destroyed the entire Gulf of Mexico. Seriously? This is front page, half-hour-block-of-television important? Excuse me, but go fuck yourself. You don’t have to own this phone. Oh what, you would rather use the iPhone 4 than any other device? Then shut up about the antenna and continue to go about your every day life. This is, without a doubt, the most infuriating thing about the whole “Antennagate” situation.
