The Old Vet Went to Washington DC

in #fiction7 years ago (edited)



....to testify before Congress.
..............................................................................................................................................................................

He'd been summoned for some reason or another. He didn't know what and he didn't care.
He sat patiently (for some very low values of patient) in his chair before the commitee until they called on him.

Then he stood up...and spoke...rather loudly...he didn't need no steenkin microphone.

" YOU TRAITORS (he was not known from his restraint) you are the problem with this nation.
Ronald Reagan said



and he was right.

George Washington is said to have said



Whether he said it or not...it's TRUTH.

You guys depend on force because you are so inept that you couldn't make money selling whisky in a WhoreHouse. I'm not exaggerating one BIT...you did that. Mustang Ranch in Nevada in the Nineties.

To name but a very few of your oh so MANY screw ups.

YOU...caused the Great Depression...and millions of americans starved to death because of it...
the only way YOU knew how to end the depression was to declare WAR...and millions more died.

YOU...banned DDT...and ten million or more people DIED from malaria...mostly children

YOU...caused untold economic chaos such as the housing bubble..and YOU put thousands of people on the street..they lost their homes because of YOU.

YOU...mandated seatbelts...for oh the very best of reasons...and the number of car accidents went UP...and more people died.

YOU.....declared war on coal...and thousands of miners lost their homes...

YOU...banned booze...enacted Prohibition..and because of YOU...organized crime was born...before then they weren't much of a problem.

YOU...declared war on drugs...and the international drug cartels were born...because of YOU they exist..

YOU ...mandated Common Core and the Department of Education and now Johnny can not only NOT read he can't even THINK.
and the list goes ON AND ON!

So I'm calling you out.

I'm an old fat viet era vet...probably twice the age of many of you punks.

I challenge YOU to a duel to the death. Either singly or in groups. Right here, right now, or any time any place.

YOU pick the weapon of your choice. I don't care...kinves, pistols, bare hands, or handgrenades in a phone booth. It doesn't matter to me.

If YOU win..then you've killed a veteran who took an oath to defend his country against all enemies..foreign and domestic.
that would be YOU...you are an enemy of what this nation stands for.

If I win...

...I've flushed another turd down the toilet.

I've helped drain the swamp.

WELL?

Any Takers?
