Are you hiding your anger?
Are you pissed off to the max with what these people get away with? And angry that you cannot put into words the extent of the damage they are doing to our nation with each passing day? And how they used Clinton's sex shenanigans to gain access to power, but they are worse tenfold than anything Clinton ever did, yet are somehow able to convince their followers that they are moral and upright and have brought honor and integrity back to the White House?

And angry with their lies and their ability to get away with it? Do you try to keep from internalizing it? Do you sometimes want to throw a shoe? :)

2. I do throw shoes.
I also throw books, magazines, anything that will hit the wall without causing damage. I do not throw things in public, and I do not throw things that break. :D

6. I have so over used the word
"outrageous" I need a new word!I stopped talking to most republicans. I was in a 90-day fog after the election.

New CNN poll
Will President Bush be successful in his fence-mending trip to Europe?

Yes 23% 18019 votes

No 77% 60981 votes
Total: 79000 votes


Who voted for this man?

What they SHOULD have asked was........"Do you CARE if Bushit is successful in fence mending during his trip to Europe?

14. I am royally pissed
because to every right wing acquaintance I have, I list what is going on, and all they can say is, yeah, well Clinton used the White House to get a BJ,(or something to that effect) so I just walk away in exasperation....I tell these people that Bush is not a Conservative, they say Oh Yeah, then what is he, I say neocon, because fascist would just make them think I'm crazy...so I give up on them, just stick to the base.

Like alcoholics, they'll have to see it for themselves and seek a cure by themselves...

15. Your post so perfectly describes my thoughts and feelings...

16. Last year I was angry...
now I am merely amused. I don't debate with anyone anymore; I did that in the '80s and '90s and got nowhere.

There's no point in being angry; in fact, if you allow yourself to become angry over what is going on in the world it only clouds your thinking. There is nothing new going on here; it's the same crap that has been going on since the beginning of civilization.

Ho-hum.
