On a scale of 1 to 10, how angry are you?

Poll question: On a scale of 1 to 10, how angry are you?

Lately I've heard of splits in our party but I think it really boils down to the fact that some of us are a little bit more angry and outraged than others.

How angry are you?

1 - Not Angry At All; actually happy/content
5 - Moderately angry
10 - Completely outraged to the maximum

1. 500

[Monkeyman]

2. Cannot explain how angry

[Little Wing]

3. 4

anything more is unhealthy

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

4. 2 I'm too cynical about politics to get all that angry.

[ecstatic]

11. I'm cynical too but I chose 7

I understand the constraints that keep us from taking action but at the same time I'm pissed off that our elected officials are not making much of a ruckus up there. Everything is civil. Some people do NOT DESERVE civility.

5. 11

[TahitiNut]

16. Yep. Spinal Tap. "11".

:grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr:

6. This anger goes to 11. I want my country back. I want the Constitution back.

[bdamomma]

7. are we angry enough to storm the WH?

frustrated more than angry, but on slow simmer.

[valerief]

8. I'm too afraid to be angry. nt

[Blue_In_AK]

9. I keep my anger at a slow simmer.

[stirlingsliver]

10. I'm As Mad As Hell

And I'm not going to take it anymore!

[H2O Man]

12. Other.

I'm not "angry." Neither am I "satisfied" with the present state of the democratic party.

[RedEarth]

13. I'm mad, but I'm not so mad I want to put on a diaper

[The2ndWheel]

14. It's a zero-sum game

Do something over here, something over there will be changed too. You gain with this cause, but then for those gains, you have to lose a little in another cause.

In our quest for perfection, the imperfect also grows. Depends on where you are though, the whole terrorist or freedom fighter thing.

Either way, it's a crazy ass world.

15. I am at a 5, but that's because the bar of expectations for the US government is rather low.

Am I angry? Yes, but I am nowhere near a 10. 10 is where I'd be if my family got bombed by a smart weapon. Could the system do better? Of course. Will it? History seems to indicate otherwise, even when mass opposition movements lit a fire under the collective asses of the legislative and executive branches of government.

I hardly expected the Democrats to put a hard date on withdrawal without loopholes in the language, but sure enough, there are loopholes.

17. Where's the "off the chart" option?

:nuke:

[WinkyDink]

18. "Angry"? No. I'm APPALLED and ENRAGED. And I'm at about 1,000 on this scale.

A Supreme Court coup d'etat. An illegal invasion. Electoral corruption and theft. Destruction of the Constitution. Torture. Treasonous revelation of a covert CIA agent. Secret Energy Task Force discussions. Inaction while a city drowned. Lies and secret e-mails. Halliburton.

Does this make some people merely "angry"?

[sakabatou]

19. At what?

[TZ]

20. Can I put a number to this?

First of all I knew Chimpy was lying about the war and have been screaming about it well before the MSM. Then I got into a job where ugly Bush type politics have if not ruined my career than severely damaged it. Then I found out my cute little kitty cats might have been eating RAT POISON without me knowing it because some corporate idiot thought it would be cheaper to "outsource" to China and nobody gives a fuck enough to monitor what is put into pet foods on a regular basis!!! Plus all the science I have learned and respected is thrown out by the Bush Fundie groups because the "Bible tells them so?!?!?" I AM SOOO MAD ABOUT SOMETHING EVERY FREAKIN DAY! I need valium I think...:grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr:
okay thanks for the chance to vent....feel better already...

21. do you want immediate impeachment and troop withdrawal from Iraq? nt

[TZ]

24. withdrawal hell yes..

Impeachment I would say yes except that would leave us with Dick Cheney...:hide:

[Initech]

22. If you aren't pissed off, you're not paying attention!

On a scale from 1 to 10, I'm an 11. Like Spinal Tap.

[Kelly Rupert]

23. 2. You can't get angry if you expect it. n/t

[Nay]

25. 10+. Incandescent. Bad for the blood pressure. n/t

[tom_paine]

28. What you said. n/t

[lovuian]

26. pretty pssst

:argh:

[MotorCityMan]

27. I'd rate it much higher than 10, though

And managing to get angrier every f*cking day...

[Raine]

30. 2...I'm not so angry

now that the Democrats are in control of things. A year ago I would've been beyond 10.

[Solly Mack]

31. I'm currently in the disgusted phase that comes after anger has cooled

and pure unadulterated disgust sets in
