| Truth In Labeling |
| 03 October 2003 It seems to me that there is an inordinate amount of labeling of people going on these days. "I am a CONSERVATIVE," or "I am a LIBERAL," or some other such nonsense. This beating of ones chest proudly as they are following the party line without question is insane. Isn't each human being a unique individual? It seems now that all you hear in the news anymore is criticism of the "other point of view." Now I understand that we are approaching an election for the esteemed office of President. We also have the recall election in Kalifornia. It seems that if you are a citizen in the United States now, you have to label yourself with some absurd definition of yourself and toe the line to that point of view. If you do anything that is not exactly in line with that point of view you are harangued and beaten about the head with stupidity. Labels limit us to be exactly what we call ourselves. Democrat, Republican, Conservative, Liberal, etc and so on ad nauseam infinatum. I think there should be Truth in Labeling People laws in this country, much like there are for food and drugs. What if politicians and talking heads were legally required to tell us " I am an Idiot," or "A circus monkey could run <insert your own state or country or organization here> better than I could, but I would still like to try." What happend to "I think therefore I am" ? We are turning into the Borg. I am five hundred fifty seven million two hundred twenty six thousand nine hundred eighty seven of nine billion seven hundred sixty thousand one hundred twenty one of Stupid. Why aren't humans just allowed to be human anymore. Let's get over ourselves. Just because we manipulate certain wave frequencies to tell everyone else how right we are doesn't mean that we are. The other residents of this planet, i.e. the animals, don't care. If they did they would laugh at us and view us as a pretentious species of idiots. And then they would probably run for public office which would return truth, integrity, and spirit to the domain of public service. So please vote Circus Monkey in your next election and do the world a favor. Copyright. 2003 by Raven Bragisson A Public Service Anouncement . If your are driving slower in the left lane of the highway than the people in the right lane of the highway who are passing you, please get over and get out of my way. This means you talking on the cell phone, smoking a cigarette, and scratching your ass all at the same time while slamming on your brakes so that you don't hit that other idiot in front of you who also needs to get over.
