Silent screams by a human being.: December 2000

Silent screams by a human being.

A collection of letters, emails, rants and raves by me, a civilized human who fears losing my mind. These missives have each been sent -- and signed, except on the web. Who knows what nuts might be reading this out there. I know I'm going nuts in here.

Screaming at the Resident

December, 2000

Dear W.,

If I thought you were a normal human I would ask you if you do not feel shame for the way you are appearing to win this election. Since your supporters seem to enjoy using the analogy of "the game" to understand governing of our nation, I will stoop to your level and do the same. (Perhaps this is the only way you can understand what is happening.) How can you hold your head up after making your decision to “fall on the ball and let the clock run out” instead of playing fairly and giving your opponent a fair chance?

However, you are not a normal human. You are a smug asshole who has never worked a day in your life. You have had everything handed to you since the day you were born. Unlike the rest of your family, who also had everything handed to them, you did not even take advantage of your privilege and strike out on your own with daddy's money to make a name for yourself. You pissed away your privilege in the most offensive ways possible. You are an ugly American. A user. A consumer. A taker. An ungrateful little punk, and a coward. Why else would you not allow the votes to be counted? Because on top of all your other despicable qualities, you are yellow. I cannot wait for the day that you are sent whimpering from office with your tail tucked between your legs. I only hope the country survives long enough to witness it.

Sincerely,


Former Texan
