My heart is truly breaking.

1. It is hard to watch

Tears in eyes with a broken heart...

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

2. I can't watch it anymore, BSE

I'll do anything to escape it.

3. I can't believe what I'm seeing

this is America? It's heart-breaking:cry:

6. This is America. And today, that means nothing.

We are not exceptional and, frankly, what reason do any of us have to think we are?

We are human beings living in an increasingly hostile and desperate planet.

8. well, for one

I have two parents who fought for this country in WWII to MAKE a difference, so with all due respect, I totally disagree. I was raised to think America was something to be proud of and a country who cared.

9. I guess I was talking about present and future

Yes, the past was great.

4. I have been so angry past few days, have been lashing out

at people for minor things ... I don't know how to get over being so upset.

I have felt this way a little since the 2000 selection of dubya and worse since November of 2004, but this just topped it.

5. We are on our own people

Just like the Iraqi's.

7. It is very hard to watch.
