Who else has never been so FURIOUS?

[Arugula Latte]

I am filled with rage.

This is the last straw.

These fuckers stole two elections, ignored warnings about a major terrorist attack, gave massive tax cuts to billionaires, attacked a country that hadn't attacked us, turned the world against us, racked up deficits we will be digging out of for decades, ran our economy into the ground, and cut funding for measures that could have prevented the DROWNING of a major U.S. city.

Then, when the most massive natural disaster in U.S. history comes ashore, this fucking evil joke of a "president" attends fund-raisers, a birthday party, and strums a guitar. Oh, and by the way, there isn't enough help because the people who should be responding are fighting brown-skinned people in a poor country for no good reason.

Days later, this miserable SOB decides maybe he'd better do a little something.

The death of tens of thousands of innocent human lives across the planet can be laid directly at the doorstep of this administration.

I am FURIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WindRavenX]

1. I hope he chokes tonight

On his own bile.

[pepperlove]

23. I love you....

we share a dream.

[AmBlue]

32. Welcome pepperlove

:hi:
You're gonna fit right in here.

[spuddonna]

35. LMAO! Awesome...

Welcome to the DU! And thanks for the laugh... I needed it...

[Nightjock]

55. welcome to DU Pepperlove!

[converted_democrat]

Welcome to DU pepperlove!!!!!

42. Somebody hand him a pretzel...

[Mr_Spock]

92. I got a whole drum full of pretzels

I'll gladly ship the whole drum to him - enjoy!

[likesmountains 52]

2. I feel the same way, I want to scream "I'm mad as hell

and I'm not going to take it anymore!"

[Horse with no Name]

3. What I am finding very difficult to comprehend

is the undermining of the local/state government by the federal government.
I find it difficult to believe that this isn't intentional.
They obviously don't have enough people--yet, Bush lackies in FEMA and Homeland Security say they do.
There is a serious breach of trust occurring to the people of New Orleans and the citizenry of the United States.
This is outrage!
It's time for us to do something.

[Nikki Stone 1]

61. They are blaming the locals to avoid having to spend Federal $$

I have started a thread inspired by your post.

[Pallas180]

144. "It's time for us to do something." - what can we do? Nothing, except

complain to newspapers and those who are supposed to represent us in
DC but stopped repping anyone but themselves, long ago.

[GreenPartyVoter]

4. From your mouth to the People's ears

[LSparkle]

5. I agree and your rant has helped me calm down a bit

I can only hope and pray that millions of others are finally seeing the light and that you're right -- THIS IS THE LAST STRAW.

I WANT MY COUNTRY BACK! I want back the kind of nation that TAKES CARE OF ITS CITIZENS and has the resources at the ready to (a) try and prevent this kind of tragedy and (b) failing that, to help people OF ALL ECONOMIC STRATA AND COLORS in their hours of need.

IMPEACHMENT NOW!!!!!!!!

[CottonBear]

11. A young lady told me today: "* will be the most hated president ever."

This was a young lady in Norhteast Georgia. He family was in a mobile home in Slidell. She hasn't heard from them yet. They could be dead. I was very surprised to hear that in the conservative area where I work.

[Radio_Lady]

101. And well he deserves it, fucker that he is...

[Arugula Latte]

16. Yes, if only we can channel our rage and take our country back.

We must, or else all is lost.

[CottonBear]

6. Gov. Blanco just yelled at everyone at her press conference. She's furious

She is incredibly angry. The police guy is on TV now talking about evacuating 1,300 inmates today form the Orleans Parish prison. He's royally pissed off too. They're doing the best they can.

[likesmountains 52]

19. this is a fascinating link...I've had it on in the background all day..

now they are asking for anyone with boats to contact them so they can coordinate some rescue missions...

[xxqqqzme]

43. how can they B contacted?

cell phones R dead - no electricity, no land lines, no internet. This is the underlying problem there is no way to communicate w/ the people stranded.

[likesmountains 52]

88. no, they wanted people with boats (that could see them on TV) to help..

[One_Life_To_Give]

24. Overtired

They probably havn't slept much lately.
In any crisis there is never enough resources to do all that you want to. Having to decide Who gets rescued now versus later can take a toll on a person.

[faithnotgreed]

37. how utterly devastating

for everyone who truly cares
for everyone with an ounce of humanity

it must be overwhelming

my prayers are with all and im thankful (from what little i know) for governor blanco and all those who have been trying to work on an immensely tragic situation

[ronnykmarshall]

46. What did she say?

[CottonBear]

60. SHe said they were doing the best they could.. They have brave people

who are working as hard as they can to save lives with very few resources. She was angry. She said they needed help but that they had no choice but to keep on...the devastation i smassive and overwhelming. No time to gather the dead. Probably 1,000s of dead.
:cry:

[Francine Frensky]

148. WHY ISN"T THIS ON TV???

This is being covered up by CNN, unless they can't get a feed somehow.

Funny how Rudy's press conferences on 9/11 got lots of air time, the governor of LA disappears off the face of the earth.

[Eloriel]

75. What specifically was she angry about? What did she say? n/t

[CottonBear]

106. SHe was frustrated and said they were doing their best with very little.

She was angry at the chaos and wanted order to be restored. She wasn't saying anything bad about the food and pampers looters who just need food and supplies, rather, she was angry at the total lawless situation and the shootings and carjackings.

I got an alert - something trying to load in (a .exe file which I denying) ... likely a hacker with a virus somehow encrypted I suspect. ?

[babylonsister]

7. Nom. for truth and outrage! nt

[noahmijo]

8. Hey buddy...

:pals:

No doubt we all feel the same. I am working so damn hard to try to control my rage and furiousness but it's proven to be impossible especially as of late.

Only thing I can think of to do is take out on BOB the punching bag.

[kitkat65]

9. Well, you know, it's time for him to get on with his life.

:sarcasm:

[Mabus]

121. Not to mention, everything changed after 9/11

although I prefer to use the date 12/11/01.

[bobbieinok]

127. do you mean 12-12-00??? the day the SCOTUS gave W the country?

if not, what is the significance of 12-11-01???

it's probably something obvious ......

[Mabus]

130. Yep, I meant 2000

It's been a little hectic lately.

[tjdee]

10. I am. I'm really angry.

I don't know what to do with it, quite frankly.

I'm going to donate to the Red Cross what little I can...considering how much money I have to spend on gas now.

But I am so much angrier than that. I want them out of the White House this instant. And that's obviously not happening.

[billkurtmeyer]

12. I agree, I have so much anger to wards this poor excuse of a

pResident - the Bubble Boy - but after watching his sorry excuse of a response - Speech - no questions allowed (far too little - far too late - 2 and 1/2 days after the fact), my anger turned to despair and I broke down and cried for those poor people who not only must suffer because of the wrath of nature, but suffer because of this sorry excuse of a man. My recent feelings are expressed here in my blog about Bubble Boys slow response: http://wakeupsheepole.blogspot.com. Hang in their the country is slowly but surly waking up - the Bubble Boy's time will come, he is in too deep!

[SammyWinstonJack]

13. On outrage overload here.

We can't depend on him and his inept administration to respond to this grave situation in any meaningful way. He is never going to do the right thing. A task force!!!!! :wtf: :grr: :banghead: :mad: Ah crap! :argh:

[graywarrior]

14. People are getting the message: You are on you own.

Time to learn survival skills.

[leftofthedial]

15. if you aren't furious, you're either in a coma

or you're an idiot

or you're a fascist conman just like the bushturd itself

but, hey! I just saved a bundle on my car insurance!

[cbear70]

17. Yes

I am finding it difficult to get a grip. I am ranting and raving and so damn pissed at this farce of an administration.

I am furious too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Frances]

18. If there is a hell,

Bush will burn there.

[Libby2]

20. I'm furious too

and there are many rooms not being used in the WH.

I think they should take the refugees there.

[AspenRose]

21. I might be happier if he ....

... walked a few blocks in downtown Nawlins. Better still, he could ride his little bicycle a mile or so in the 9th ward. :evilgrin:

22. I feel the same way...

I've been so angry lately.

I am so sick of these damned people!!!


:grr:

[BooScout]

25. I've been beyond furious since the day he bombed Iraq. n/t

[Don Claybrook]

26. Grinding my teeth sideways

New, never before heard expletives issuing from my mouth every few minutes. But I'm going to borrow one I saw here a couple of days back: I hold George W Bush in less regard than I hold a bag of goat vomit.

[Binka]

77. A Bag Of Goat Vomit

Kinda says it all Don. Abject Motherfuckin' Failure.

[Binka]

78. I Am Without Words

My son is off to Ramidi in three days. And this super fuckhat is doing a fly by grieving. I want to rip trees up with my teeth.

27. Cuba president transports people out of the worse areas

our country
the airlines shut down early - after having been bailed out many times
the military trucks that could have transported people are over in other countries - killing and murdering people who had nothing to do with 911

* compares iraq to wwII - when his kissing buddy funds terriorists

they don't care

[Zuni]

28. Bush is the worst excuse for a leader in US history

this is what puts him past Warren Harding and pro-slavery leaders

[Island Blue]

29. I'm way beyond furious myself

Today a yelled at the people in a car that was sporting a W sticker. Usually I just clandestinely flip idiots like that the bird, but today I went postal their ass. (Of course they couldn't hear me because it's 95 degrees here today and I had the windows rolled up, but it made me feel better.) Fuck 'em all!

[KansDem]

120. Self deleted

Self deleted to maintain good taste

[Cha]

30. I had a HUGE RANT in my

car with the windows rolled on my way back from running in the rain.

I was RAGING, and when it was over I said.."oh, now I feel Better!" But, I don't know how long that Rant will hold me.

[Nikia]

31. I'm really upset too

This diaster is bigger than 9/11 in terms of damage and loss of human life yet he doesn't seem to care. It just goes to show that the man has no empathy. I am hoping this will finally convince people.

[spuddonna]

33. I am not a violent person...

However, I am so angry at how badly this idiot has handled this disaster, that I am fighting the urge to punch a wall...

[Old and In the Way]

34. Totally disgusted.

The Bush agenda is exposed as the cynical, bankrupt policy it is. 4 years of "War on Terror" has accomplished what? Made terrorism 10X the problem irt was at a cost of 1000's of lives and $300BB for war profiteers. How could those lives and $ been better deployed? We only have to look at what's happening in NOLA...

[MN ChimpH8R]

36. I think that the tipping point has been reached

or passed with the destruction wrought by Katrina. The Chimperor comes out and mangles some meaningless platitudes while a million people are homeless, unemployed or otherwise distressed by the after-effects of the hurricane, while gas prices go up a dollar overnight.

People don't even have to be paying attention for the effects of all this to sink in. One had to be news-literate and persistent to realize what was happening behind the scenes after 9/11 and in the Iraq war. Now the mass of sheeple can see the results of Chimpy's inaction every time they turn on the news or go to the gas station. And the worst hasn't begun yet.

Weird and terrible times are coming, and I think that in the near future the mob will assemble and begin arming itself with torches and pitchforks. The question is whether they will turn on their true enemies in the BFEE or not.

[stubtoe]

65. I believe you are correct, MN ChimpH8R

Even in places far from the storm, people are definitely noticing the gas prices. Anxiety could begin to precipitate a public backlash.

[LibertyorDeath]

38. Beyond FURIOUS Beyond Livid

I have nothing but utter disgust for this contemptible shit
and his band of Neocon War criminals.

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

39. Me too

I'm spitting, hissing mad. I've been pretty enraged for oh, about five years now, but THIS IS TOO MUCH.

[Serial Mom]

40. I was about to post almost the same words!

Filled with anger - more and more every day

Last straw!

I will do everything I can to speak out against this idiot!

[Panda1]

41. Both paws raised here

"There is a cancer growing on the presidency."-John Dean regarding Nixon.
But this is worse. Far worse.

[gumby]

44. I'm with you!

My cheeks actually burned with red-hot heat as I was calling my Senators and saying many of the things you just wrote.

And did you hear that USELESS speech? This administration is beyond comprehension. It is worse than words.

Words and comprehension have failed, so the rage is building.

[sepia_steel]

45. I've had a sort of 'quiet determination' type of anger ever since

the first time I heard the word 'unamerican' come out of the lips of lady in Oklahoma in her 50's. She was referring to some actress who had protested the war publicly on TV. Susan Sarandon I think, I wasn't watching.

I wasn't politically aware, but that kind of statement didn't sit well with em at all. Unamerican?

So I learned about the war. I started to pay attention. I read both sides. And one side's actions looked obviously wrong to me. Then I learned about *. Then I voted against him. It's all been quiet rage from that day forward.

I feel a snap coming.

I have never HATED anyone before, EVER.

[tnlefty]

47. Raises hand. I'm furious and my 15 yr. old son went off when he

heard some anchorperson (don't remember who) trying to cut Dimson** and others some slack. I was busy trying to calm him down and reminding him that there are consequences for breaking things!

edited to add: spouse just came in and he's goin' off, too.

[all.of.me]

48. me!

it takes me a while to really get riled up about something, but it's been building over the last month, with 'him' not talking to cindy. that just blew me away over and over again, every day. now katrina, and the gas. i have had ENOUGH!

[Ladyhawk]

49. I'm beyond rage right now. I'm just filled with a deep, deep sadness. n/t

[SeanQ]

50. I could not agree more!!!

The bastard is letting people die! Is he hoping to come in late as a grand savior, sacrificing lives to make it look like things are much better under his control? Does he just not give a fuck? Is he just an idiot?

All of the above?

Here are just a few of my posts on this subject:

[deadparrot]

51. I'm with you.

I've never been so angry in all my life. I'm constantly halfway between rage and hysterical sobbing. Every time I think about those poor people trapped in that city, I think I have a minor panic attack.

And it all goes back to the fact that he cut their funding and played a guitar.

:grr:

[Redstone]

52. I haven't been this angry since the Iraq invasion.

Redstone

[Habibi]

53. Thank you for this most excellent rant

I ran out of expletives last night, over dinner with my husband. The only expression left to me was sobbing.

Isn't it amazing, though, that donations *are* pouring in to relief agencies, even though so many of us are dealing with nouveau poverty ourselves?

[Flying Dream Blues]

54. Count me in ...

I'm angry but it has taken on a despairing flavor. I despair of a country that is not OUT IN THE STREETS in outrage that there has been so little help forthcoming to these people.

On CNN I watched a story in which the (presumably only) helicopter stopped the sandbagging efforts to do some basket rescues. What I've been wondering is why there haven't been a FLEET of 'copters, little boats (it IS Louisiana after all) getting more of those stranded people out?

I am sick...just sick. Nothing surprises me anymore. I try to envision this scenario under Clinton and it's almost like a dream. You know, there would be HELP: food, water, blankets, medicine, temporary housing, non-stop rescue efforts underway, and our President would be every bit on top of things pulling out every stop to get it done ASAP. Being there HIMSELF to reassure people that they would be okay!

Kind of like you expect it to be in America. Oh, never mind.

with respect to our "leader". :) We don't want Bush's secret police knocking on our doors. :)

[pepperlove]

131. True.....

been there done that... grrrrrrrr.... more aggravation than anything else.

[SmokingJacket]

57. Been angry for so long, now it comes out as numbness.

Nevertheless... I can't believe how bad things are right now.

[rumpel]

58. The sad thing is that * does not understand it, and his handlers don't

care.

[tamtam]

59. Amen

Kicked, nominated and bookmarked. I am filled with so much rage that it scares me. I usually ignore the freeper trolls that come to this board but I cannot help myself today. I normally don't use foul language but I've been cussing them out on this board for the last hour.

So many people are dead and so many yet to die. :cry:. I haven't felt this bad since 9/11 and it looks like the death toll will be higher. Yes I'm furious and sad.

[nonconformist]

62. I feel like my head is going to freaking explode I'm so mad nt

[Moxygirl]

63. Personally I was furious after

these fuckers stole the first election. All the rest has just deadened my nerve endings.

[Iris]

102. lucky for you. I just keep getting furiouser and furiouser.

[Bouncy Ball]

64. If his party had any brain cells among them, they'd be pissed at him

too.

He may not be running again, but THEY want to keep the White House, so....

Wait a second.

What the fuck am I talking about? Ha! Keep those lil' ol' machines rigged up, keep those lines frustratingly long in Dem districts and voila! They don't really have to worry about it do they?

OF course if tooo many people get toooo pissed off at repukes they are going to have a harder and harder time making it look as if they won every time.

Ahem.

[wli]

66. I'm outraged.

I apparently condemned this in too strong of words (no threats/violence involved).

[leftchick]

67. after seeing the devastation on the highway overpass I am ENRAGED

all of those babies and little children, a dead husband, a nine month pregnant woman, old people with demensia who don't know what is going on and the dead man at the bottom who jumped because he could not take it anymore.

AND THE FUCKING RAT SHIT BASTARD IN THE WH** IS KILLING THEM ALL!!!!

ON EDIT: They were all black families that could explain the lack of action.

[Catchawave]

68. As reported on the news just now....

"The President RUSHED back to the White House from his vacation TODAY to oversee disaster assistance....."

DAMN, I'm mad too...



:mad:

[Angry Girl]

69. Right there with you! n/t

[wildeyed]

70. I am apoplectic.

We don't have the people to respond properly to this tragedy because they are all over in Iraq. We won't have the money to pay for the clean up because we gave it all to billionaires already. Meanwhile people are standing on their roofs waving white flags, begging for help because there was no proper plan to evacuate them from a situation that everyone knew was likely to happen at some point.

I go between feeling weepy and then nearly busting a vein.

[Triana]

72. I personally cannot WAIT until his Karma

catches up with him.

I truly think he is void! A shell, with skin, and really unruly hair!

Bush is a fucking piece of shit. May he rot in hell.

Edit - I wish I could tell you how I really feel.

[DeepModem Mom]

74. I'm here -- DMM -- and I'm furious. We are pretty much helplessly...

watching people die on television. I've been calling today -- DNC, Senator, media -- begging them to hold this "President" and his administration responsible for their failure to protect and defend, for their failure...to govern.

[confludemocrat]

79. Apoplectic

[Window]

80. I'm with you.

Except I'm too furious to put my feelings into words! Thanks for stating what I was unable to formulate.

[AbbyR]

81. I know this is going to sound so trite, but....

it really helps to go out and DO something about what's making you mad. We have 68 (at last count) storm refugees at a shelter a block from where I work. They are housed at the Methodist church. There are probably 40 or more people in motels nearby.

The people at the church are feeding and sheltering the refugees, getting them medical care, coordinating information and help. They have even arranged to have the children start school, and if they don't have school supplies, that's taken care of, too.

I went to a meeting today where the refugees were begged not to be ashamed to ask for help - people WANT to help. One company manager said he could take some people who wanted to work on as temps.

One person is letting a family stay at a deer camp, and I know of at least two families who have taken in people who need shelter.

This afternoon we found a man staying in a hotel who left home without his medication. It was too late to get him to a clinic, so we took him to the emergency room, where he was treated, and we got him and is friend dinner.

No, it doesn't fix much of anything. But it makes me feel better. ....Until I realize that I'm doing more than my president to help the victims.

[renate]

86. what you're doing fixes a LOT

Don't say it doesn't fix much of anything... when you save a single life, you save the world. (These people must be so exhausted and worried and desperate that it's probably not too much of an exaggeration to say that you're saving their lives by holding out a helping hand.) What you and your friends are doing is wonderful.

:hug:

[titoresque]

99. you're wonderful!!!

and a true patriot! We need more people like you! Bless you! And you are right, doing something,especially helping others right now is a good way to channel this anger into action!

Peace to you and your family!

[Guaranteed]

82. RIGHTEOUS fucking rant. nt

[seabeyond]

83. raising hand. me too. talked to mama of four soldiers

gonna write a post tomorrow about it. she called me to see her grand baby. 18 months old born with all kinds of stuff. find out from anthrax shot soldier got. i heard that gasped in air and was angry.....so mad. told her, sorry, i am just pissed right now, really really pissed. had to be delicate in tlaking to her

Seems like as good a time as any to express our outrage.

[jokerman93]

94. silent burning white hot

I'm prepared to bypass ordinary channels, take back our discarded constitution and install a new government - as is my American birth right.

[Stephanie]

96. ME!

Selection, 9/11, Iraq, Re-Selection - I thought I'd seen the worst. But Bush & Co's indifference to this incredible human suffering takes the cake.

97. THIS SHOULD SINK MCCAIN TOO, BY THE WAY

No excuses for McCain, friends.

[titoresque]

100. Amen to that! eom

[Pooka Fey]

140. Fuck McCain, smiling with Chimp while Louisianans are drowning.

[WiseButAngrySara]

98. I am FURIOUS too Oregonian! 1,000 something just today in Iraq due

to a suicide bomb scare...mostly women and children! I hate this M-Fer. First time in my rather extended life that I've HATED a Pres...can't even finish the word. He doesn't warrant the title.

[OhioChick]

103. Good Post n/t

[Carni]

104. I'm there

Of all the insidious evil acts this piece of shit has committed this takes the cake--cutting funding to updating the levees?

Not sending in any assistance to the region beforehand?

The list goes on and on...this bastard deserves to rot in the worst sort of hell.

[HamdenRice]

105. I am inarticulate with rage right now...

and believe that people in NO are going to die because of shrub's callousness and incompetence.

[milkyway]

107. bush is the antichrist.

[byronius]

108. Since 12/12/00, I've been getting angrier every day.

And November 3rd was the nitro. Ignorance is one thing, but direct practice of fascist principle is never to be forgiven. YOU CAN HAVE MY AMERICA WHEN YOU PRY IT FROM MY COLD DEAD HEART.

Republican means Criminal. Conservative means Treason/Torture/Traitor.

[Beelzebud]

109. You know. I've been having a difficult time keeping my anger in check

today.

I don't know how much more I can take. I'm about to explode.

[VADem11]

111. I am

Everything that he has done is bad. The worst disaster in American history was the Galveston Hurricane. It killed 8,000 people. I fear Katrina will be worse. The freaking president sat on his ass for the past few days and now there are refugees in the united states of america. Bush is disgusting.

[nofurylike]

112. me. i feel my heart is literally going to stop beating, from fury. eom

[mvd]

113. Beyond furious!

Rant on :rant:

I was so mad that I could hardly eat tonight. I better calm down, because I have a blood pressure check with the doctor tomorrow. The people need to DEMAND that asshole's impeachment! I am going to e-mail Specter and even Santorum's offices. I think that Louisiana will be a blue state now and that it will be close in Mississippi, but I can't even think about the positives while hell on Earth is going down. I don't even think Bush, Cheney, etc. want the federal government involved! These neo-cons are sick, and death and destruction follows them.

Rant off (but still angry!) :rant:

[Michydem]

114. i've never been this depressed, angry, sad, hostile in all my life...

he is not human...and i just have no words to express how mad I am right now...I mean mad..? that isn't even close to what I feel right now...

[blue neen]

132. Well said, Michydem.

Welcome to DU!

[jarnocan]

115. I agree

but we mustn't wish him any ill fortune -that would be treason. I do believe our world would be very different if he had NOT been allowed to steal the elections.
We need to demand the truth concerning 911, election fraud and the war.
What about this Wayne Madson thing? It all relates. http://www.insider-magazine.com/madsen_under_threat.htm

We have reason to think that a "project" will be undertaken against "someone" considered problematic now...not next week but NOW. That person is not specified but is in the US, in an apartment setting and lives alone. It is a "he" and he works via www. This information is specific to an intent but not specific to a person. The source is impeccable and you know my track record which have parallel sourcing.....Please respond with a note that all is normal there. Please consider the warning we received as it can be applied to many including yourself. It is possible that someone considers "us" linked in some way and that this warning may be a "deterrent" to work that some may not want completed. We have no reason to think this but I want to consider every possible angle and application to this warning. Please consider what can be done while taking any measures you think necessary to avoid this "project". We consider this warning as coming with the highest level "authenticity" and purity of motive, but the subject and message subject and it's specifications were too unusual to be sure of intent.

116. I never knew I had the capability for such hate and rage...

Just when I think this administration can't sink any lower in their depravity and incompetence, they prove me wrong.

[wovenpaint]

117. ME! It's gone beyond bizarro world

to a Hieronymus Bosch style surrealism.
I'm heartbroken to think that 100K people have perished due to the complete and utter failure of the squatters in OUR White House.
If it can happen there, it could happen in any city here in the US.
And to think, there's still a minimum of 2+ years for this "administration"!
:scared: :scared: :scared: :scared:
War crimes, crimes against humanity, etc. IMPEACH!

[mvd]

118. a kick

We all need this topic right now.

[A Brand New World]

119. I feel exactly the same way. I am so pissed with the Feds S L O W response

to this disaster. I just cannot express the anger that I am feeling toward this regime. As a white person, I cannot help but feel the slow response is because the majority of those stranded and suffering are black and poor. I hate to say this. I hate to think that this is happening in 2005. I just feel to the depth of my being that this would be different if the citizens were white and well-off. I hate, hate, hate to think that this is my government.

As for the looters, we must think that they are dealing with life and death issues. They are desperate at this time.

122. 3 and a half more years too

125. So Am I

This has been building for years with me. I have been watching the slow rise of the neocons with disgust. At one time, those f***s almost made me want to kill myself, & this was before GW came into office. Because of what they have done to the economy (downsizings, flat wages, expensive healthcare, outsourcing, etc.), I feared that I would never make it. The stress got so bad that I eventually just wanted to end it all. I went for help instead, but now I wonder if I made the right decision. Isn't that awful? Anti-depressants are all that keep me going now. So you can imagine that I have "unfinished business" with the neocons. All I live for now is to see those neocons go down in flames. I want them to pay for all the misery they have caused. I want them to pay for all the lies they have told about people on the left. I want them to pay for their lack of compassion. When they finally do pay, it will be the happiest day of my life.

126. physically sick and depressed the past few days...

i can't watch the news right now. i just can't bear it.

[drthais]

128. I have to say, being down here in the middle of it

when we heard (on the radio, our only source of info)
his first, then second speech
in which he spent 30 seconds saying how much he cares
then launched into some wierd tirade about terrorism
it made us want to throw up

he is useless

[stevedeshazer]

129. I've never been so angry in my life.

And there's no help in sight.

I think I'm even angrier at the Democrats. Where the hell are they?

[darkism]

133. I don't live in New Orleans...

...but ever since I visited, I loved it so much that it took a special place in my heart.

Watching Nero** literally do NOTHING while this great city sinks has left me beyond furious.

Now it's personal.

[cmf]

134. Me!!!!!!!

George W. Bush is the most worthless piece of shit president this country has ever had. And if that statement gets me locked up in Guantanamo indefinetly, so be it. It felt good to say it. :evilgrin:

[Roxy66]

135. I'm there with you...it's becoming unhealthy

[blue neen]

136. Unbridled fury. It is so intense that it has exhausted me.

The Bush Cabal has marched us this country (and others) into misery and suffering that I've never seen in my 50 years of life.

[Kool Kitty]

137. I've been angry since he stole the first election.

But you know what was the tipping point for me? The absolute, screaming, throwing things crying tipping point? The cake and the widow on the highway. The cake-I mean, how fucking DARE he? (And McCain is a thoughtless c**t for that, too-don't they have news reports in Arizona? I expected better from him. I was wrong.) People are hungry, wet, sick, drowned-and this fuck is licking his fingers? And the widow in the highway. That made me cry. Her husband is dead, wrapped in old clothes, lying under a bench. She said she tried to flag down some help. No one stopped. Then, when the police finally did stop, they told her to move that, because the smell was becoming offensive. God Almighty. I'm sick at heart and soul and if this doesn't get rid of this Administration, then there is no hope. If this doesn't wake the country up, nothing will.

[Lori Price CLG]

138. Yes, revolution *now.* n/t

[really annoyed]

139. I'm more empty than furious

It seems like I can't stop shaking my head at all this chaos. I'm mentally tired - if I wasn't, I would probably be very very angry.

[Pooka Fey]

141. My head is exploding with rage.

There aren't words to describe my fury and hatred for ** .

[VOX]

142. It's been a living nightmare since 11/7/00, & it just keeps getting worse.

I'm an easy-going guy, but I've had a high anger level since the 2000 general election -- it's been one right-wing travesty after another since then.

I cannot stand the very sight of the thing that passes (in the media, anyway) for our president. He and his ilk represent the worst of humanity: bottomless greed, unspeakable cruelty, heartless insensitivity, utter cluelessness.

2008 cannot come quickly enough! :grr:

[NMMNG]

143. I'm right there with you

But Chimpy is doing exactly what he is best known for--nothing worthy of the office. So I offer this salute to our dear prez

[Dem2theMax]

145. Literally trembling with rage.

Tuesday I read this:

Tuesday, August 30, 2005

CORONADO, California (AP) -- Facing a public increasingly wary of his war policies, President Bush declared Tuesday that America cannot rest until its freedom is secure and likened his spreading-democracy vision to Franklin D. Roosevelt's.

Commemorating the 60th anniversary of the end of World War II, the president drew comparisons between that 20th-century conflict and current wars on terror and in Iraq.

"As we mark this anniversary, we are again a nation at war. Once again war came to our shores with a surprise attack that killed thousands in cold blood," he said at a naval base here, referring to September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

He said that as in the time of World War II, the United States now faces "a ruthless enemy" and "once again we will not rest until victory is America's and our freedom is secure."

more here: http://edition.cnn.com/2005/POLITICS/08/30/bush.ap/index.html

After I read that, the rage started. (Well, I've had the rage for a long time, but this fanned the flames to the boiling point.)

Then I turned on Countdown and saw a man telling of how his wife was literally torn from his arms by the flooding waters and now he and his sons have no idea of where she is.

After I saw that, the trembling started.

Today, also on Countdown, a girl of about four was shown calling to anyone who passed by to help her push a stranded car. The girl was standing (somehow) on what looked to be wood floating in the water. The man with her was old, appeared to be in shock, probably her Grandfather, and they needed help pushing their very old car out of the water. It was probably all they have left in the world. The little girl started crying, begging someone, anyone, to come and help them. The camera crew, in a BOAT, sat there for the longest time, filming away. Then all of a sudden you heard the motor of the boat start up and off they went, leaving that poor child and her Grandfather to fend for themselves.

Then the tears started and they won't stop.

I have never felt such rage in my life. No one had better dare to come up to me and say something nice about *. I'd blow my top and make a mine field look like a walk in the park.

I could not sleep last night. Nightmares about that man and his missing wife. Tonight I'll probably be screaming in my sleep about that little girl.

Hell is not hot enough for * and his evil cabal.

[Nothing Without Hope]

146. Add this to the pot:

Funding cuts - the money went to Homeland Security and the Iraq War - are responsible for the vulnerable levees that broke in New Orleans and drowned the city.

The Bush Administration has REFUSED Canadian search/resue aid to hurricane victims.

And there is still more. Read this opening post and the rest of the thread and you'll see more of just how unspeakable this REALLY is.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x4523783
Thread title: CNN/New Orleans:"Mayor blasts failure to patch levee breeches" and that's {only the beginning}:

Ever wonder why OUR National Guard is over being shat at while here we have clueless Pentagon-directed military for this emergency? That is part of it, was planned by the Bush administration, and is part of why things are so terrible now.

[marions ghost]

147. with you in spirit

:grouphug:
thanks for expressing what many of us feel, Oregonian

the only good thing about this tragedy is that maybe more people will wake up to what is really going on in this country.

[Maiden England]

149. If ever there was a straw that broke the camel's back

this is it.

I am furious...

[grace0418]

150. Livid. I am FUCKING LIVID.

I cannot even describe my rage.

[Arugula Latte]

151. Thanks, everyone.

I appreciate your solidarity!!!
