The one thing that gives me hope

While I think we can all agree that the UNited States is a gleaming pile of shit slowly churning down the toilet of social conservatism, extreme debt, and fiscally irresponsible, corporate-owned bastard people, the one thing that still gives me hope is our freedom of speech. In fact, it seems to be the ONE virtue remaining on our once-great country that makes me tear up when I realize how much I love my freedom of speech and how often I use it. Sometimes it takes a special reminder, like Mr. Vermin Supreme, who is running for the democratic party's presidential nomination:

Just when you think our ability to mock the system that we feel is cheating us is gone, Mr. Vermin Supreme comes along and reminds me that it's still a pile of shit and he's going to make fun of it and NO ONE can stop him because we have the right to freedom of speech and to run in elections.

I heart you Mr. Supreme.
