Hi Humans,
So now many of you are now in a tizzy over hearing that the USA has been spying on other countries. Big surprise!! Don't you know that governments spy on each other? You don't read the newspaper? You never saw a James Bond movie? It would be nice if we lived in a fairy tale world where everyone was nice, there were no terrorists, and each country minded its own business. But that is not the way it is. It is the world which you humans created and in which we domesticated animals must live. Let me tell you, life for animals who live in the wild without government is no picnic. It is constantly eat, starve, or be eaten. For all its faults, the government in which you humans and we domesticated animals live here in the USA and many other countries in this world very much beats the absence or almost absence of government that exists in the wild and in some parts of the human world.

Sacrifice
Hi Humans,
Have you noticed how people who promote austerity want others to sacrifice but are not willing to do the same sacrifices themselves? The salaries of the Congressmen are not affected by the government shutdown although the livelihood of many of their fellow citizens are very much affected. Congressmen enjoy government health insurance but are willing to shut down the government and destroy the credit of the USA in order to deny comparable opportunity for health insurance to their fellow citizens. I would call that hypocrisy, but would I know? I'm just a dog.

Radical Republicans, Please Act Like Adults
Hi Humans,
So now the US Congress has shut down the US government causing financial difficulty for many of you humans and soon might cause the government to default on its debt obligations. This is happening because a group of radical right wing Republican congressmen are holding the USA hostage to prevent the American people from benefitting from the Affordable Care Act. These radicals pretend that the Affordable Care Act is a huge change that will be harmful. Even a little dog like me can see that they are not telling the truth. The Affordable Care Act will cause all the people to have health insurance. Until now, those of you who have insurance have been paying for those who do not in the form of higher hospital costs incurred by uninsured people raising medical overhead. Obamacare would have eventually occurred no matter who is president because it is necessary. The Radicals are so vehemently against it because they hate Obama. They are like little children who throw over the checker board when they are losing. The radical right Republicans need to grow up.
