Three Soundbites

All concerning the U.S. House Of Reps' recent vote to allow American tourists to travel to Cuba.

• Supporters "said the proposal would advance freedom in the communist nation."

• Opponents "said it would only bolster Fidel Castro's dictatorship."

• The American people say it's none of Congress' motherfucking business what Americans do on their holidays, or in their free time generally. Until you can get your minds around that concept, fuck off with your regal proclamations of "liberty" and "freedom", assholes.

Fuck off with your "drug war" and your record incarceration rate. Fuck off with your "PATRIOT" Act. Fuck off with your worldwide wars of conquest and plunder. Fuck off with your taxation without representation. Fuck off with your "Total Information Awareness". Fuck off with your "Camp X-Ray" and your Gestapo "detentions". Fuck off with your pledge of fucking allegiance. Fuck off with your one-dollar-one-vote polity, and its 90% incumbency rate. Fuck off with your selling out of the public's airwaves and its natural resources. Fuck off with your wage slavery. Fuck off with your "national security" reflex. Fuck off with your Corporate Welfare and your trillion-dollar military. Fuck off with your twining of church and state.

Fuck off. Fuck off. Fuck off. Please, do us all a favour and fuck off.
