swinging wildly at straw men

Some days I feel as if I'm riding into the Valley of Death.  We are being attacked on all sides.  Our fearless leader, The Prince of Peace, is standing by while our entire public school system is being ripped apart and thrown to the Privateers. 
While we are sending our boys and girls off to "defend our freedom", congress and the Empire Builders are busy dismantling our schools, selling off our public buildings and even our highways.  Our children are easy prey for these greedy Vultures, too.  Today's college graduates can expect to be in debt before they clear the college campus.  Now we are busy privatizing our K through 12 education.  How long will it be until parents find that in order to see their children graduate they will have to go into debt to pay for that privilege?   
The upcoming elections will be a real eye opener.  We are about to find out what clever spin our Corporate First Class Citizens can put on issues in order to totally confuse and disarm us.  It's already begun.  And while we are swinging wildly at Straw men, the Empire Builders will be greedily grabbing off everything in sight. 
If Americans don't mount a strong resistance we will soon find ourselves back in 1890.
And that's the good news.
