loud is necessary

Yes, how many times must a man look up

Before he can see the sky ?

Yes, how many ears must one man have

Before he can hear people cry ?

Yes, how many deaths will it take till he knows

That too many people have died ?

The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind. (“Blowin’ in the Wind”, Bob Dylan) 

Why is it that Romney, Ryan, Boehner and McConnell are at the ready with answers as to how quickly they will repeal and replace the ACA, but seem to stutter with slow motion words when asked with what will they implement as a substitution? Why is it that Romney, Ryan, Boehner and McConnell are sure fire quick draw marksmen in demolishing the ACA, but can’t find the right ammunition to to hit the target for its replacement? Why is it that Romney, Ryan, Boehner and McConnell consider the ACA a socialist intrusion into the lives of Americans but have little to nothing to say about how all the House of Representatives, Senate and President receive government sponsored health insurance. Why is that Romney, Ryan, Boehner and McConnell seem to think those suffering with life threatening illnesses, a history of poor to no health care have all the time in the world for these four buffoons to play politics, cow tow to their corporate pay masters instead of the caring for the Average American?

And why the hell are there people in this country so blinded by their own bigotry and bias to permit these fools to continue their pomposity, pandering and self serving ways?

And he is not one of us

He has never been one of us

He is not part of us

Not our kind

Someone once lied to us

Now we're not so blind

For we knew he would do what he's done

And we know that he'll never be one of us (“One of Us”,Jack Feldman)

Why is it that all the corporations, millionaires and billionaires who are proud to call Romney their man for president are all so shy in having their names made aware to the public? Why is it that these recipients of Citizens United are rah-rah-rah in buying and bribing their politicians, but seem so disgruntled and bent out of shape if their hush money is announced out loud? Why is it that  pride and honor can only be demonstrated in the dark by the purveyor of politicians and when announced to the world they grow angry and shy?

And why the hell are there so many people in this nation permitting the wealthy to continue to buy their way into government and not calling them out for their bribery and greed?

Are you lost

In your lies?

Do you tell yourself "I don't realize"?

Your crusade's a disguise

Replace freedom with fear

You trade money for lives

I'm aware of what you've done (“No More Sorrow”, Linkin Park)

Why is it that people who swear they speak for God, who stand at the holy pulpit stand upon a holier soap box insist that all life is a gift from God while shouting that anyone who diminishes that gift is a sinner. Why is that those people who believe only they can speak for God and his intentions for all things human insist abortion is an abomination but once the baby is born could care less on keeping it healthy. Why is it that those who have received the calling of the Lord or have paid enough money to employ others who are closer to God will burn down abortion clinics, murder abortion providers but will not lift a finger to keep free clinics open or support health universal health care for all? Why is it that a zygote has the right to life and the government should interfere in making that so, but hiring teachers and paying them a fair wage, equal access to health care for all and providing three nutritional meals a day for those zygotes IS not the business of government? 

And why the hell are there so many people in this land of ours who look the other way, ignore the facts and run from responsibility once they are asked to be accountable for their own ignorance and involvement?

Why the hell do the smart let the dumb run amuck, permit the lemming to lead and remain silent as the bigot roars? Silence from the sincere is not needed anymore. Loud is necessary!
