DUDE! WHERE'S MY DEMOCRACY???

America, it's sad to say, but you are no longer are a democratic country.

You've stolen away the rights of your own citizens through secret programs, abusive power, and warrantless spying.

You've openly embraced torture as a way of professing "humane" interrogation--but in reality, it's not.

You have internment camps and secret prisons from which both citizen and enemy alike can be spirited away to and never heard from again.

Your elections are rigged to favor the rich, the powerful, and the corrupt, but not the people whom you claim to represent.

You've tried to deny people the right to dissent openly without calling them 'Nazi appeasers' and all sorts of post-World War II jargon.

You've demeaned your Constitution as a 'damned piece of paper'.

You've charge your opponents as 'weak' and 'soft' when the results of the last six years has proven you to be just that--'weak' and 'soft'.

You've used fear and terror to gain control of the people in past elections, while attacking your own media for doing their jobs in reporting the truth.

So I ask you thus: "How are these actions considered 'democratic'?"
