You've felt it your entire life, that there's something wrong with the world.  You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad.

A Tale of Two Press Releases

The White House released the following press release yesterday, December 21, 2011.

Statement by the Press Secretary on Syria

The United States continues to believe that the only way to bring about the change that the Syrian people deserve is for Bashar al-Assad to leave power.  The words of the Assad regime have no credibility when they continue to be followed by outrageous and deplorable actions.  Only two days following the Assad regime’s decision to sign the Arab League initiative, they have already flagrantly violated their commitment to end violence and withdraw security forces from residential areas.  The United States is deeply disturbed by credible reports that the Assad regime continues to indiscriminately kill scores of civilians and army defectors, while destroying homes and shops and arresting protesters without due process.  While Syrian security forces have also taken casualties, the overwhelming majority of the violence and loss of life in Syria stems from the actions of the Assad regime, and we call on all parties to put an end to violence.

Time and again, the Assad regime has demonstrated that it does not deserve to rule Syria.  It’s time for this suffering and killing to stop. It’s time for the immediate and full implementation of all terms of the Arab League agreement, including the full withdrawal of security forces, the release of political prisoners, and unfettered access by monitors and international media to all parts of Syria.  It’s time for the Syrian people to have the universal rights that they deserve.  The Assad regime is already facing growing isolation and sanctions that are choking off its resources.  We urge Syria’s few remaining supporters in the international community to warn Damascus that if the Arab League initiative is once again not fully implemented, the international community will take additional steps to pressure the Assad regime to stop its crackdown.  Bashar al-Assad should have no doubt that the world is watching, and neither the international community nor the Syrian people accept his legitimacy.

Statement by the People on the USA

The United States continues to believe that the only way to bring about the change that the American people deserve is for Barack Obama to leave power.  The words of the Obama regime have no credibility when they continue to be followed by outrageous and deplorable actions.  Only a few days following the Obama regime’s decision to sign the National Defense Authorization Act, they have already flagrantly violated their commitment to defend the Constitution and withdraw from chipping away at citizens' rights.  The United States is deeply disturbed by credible reports that the Obama regime continues to indiscriminately arrest scores of civilians and army defectors, while ignoring constitutional rights and arresting protesters without due process.  While police security forces have also taken criticism, the overwhelming majority of the violence and loss of freedoms in America stems from the actions of the Obama regime, and we call on all parties to put an end to this treason.

Time and again, the Obama regime has demonstrated that it does not deserve to rule America.  It’s time for this deception and manipulation to stop. It’s time for the immediate and full implementation of all the terms of the Bill of Rights, including the full withdrawal of militarized police forces from our soil, the release of political prisoners, and unfettered access by citizen monitors and media to all parts of American government.  It’s time for the American people to have the universal rights that they deserve.  The Obama regime is already facing growing isolation and resistance that are choking off its deceitful and unlawful behavior.  We urge America’s few remaining supporters in the international community to warn Washington that if the United States Constitution is once again not fully implemented, the international community will take additional steps to pressure the Obama regime to stop its crackdown.  Barack Obama should have no doubt that the world is watching, and that neither the international community nor the American people accept his legitimacy.
