I could smell it in the air on my birthday, this glorious Fourth, the smell of decay and lost hope.
I honestly believe that it is only a matter of time before America collapses in on itself and we're all left shaking off the dust in the shadows of our holy new corporatocracy. A nation that so clearly embraces the hypocrisy of sing-song democracy commanded by cash cannot - should not - be a world power.
Thank you, Mr. President, for bringing this grand experiment to a close and for putting to an end all of this silly nonsense about the power of the people and their frivolous lives, liberties, and happiness.
