C'm on Democrats--Anger is not all bad

[OHdem10]

Anger is a an emotion which spurs us to action. To hear
especially DEms criticizing Anger and thus supporting Republican
Talking points is enough to make one scream.

Let me remind everyone how the Republicans and Bush have capitalized on the anger in their base at Clinton. Of course Republicans believe in winning. Some in our party seem ever so eager to assist them. It is okay for Republicans to use amger and hatred but it is
imperative that Democrats lose an election rather than our capitalizing on the anger in our Party. Anyone who watches Dean knows he was smart enough to capitalize on all the anger in our party
while some other candidates stood around clueless as to what was going on. Every candidate had the same opportunity as Dean. Too many of them are averse to talking to activist to find okut what gives.

No more double standard. If Republicans can be angry so can Democrats. Take this message to the Media in Spades.

If there were no anger in the world not much would ever get accomplished.

1. Exactly

Remember this... It's the political talking point of the year.,...

LOL..Bob Somerby of the Howler says this in his piece today:
"Those who disagree with Bush are in the grip of irrational hatred. Today, we name it our Spin of the Year. We’ll examine the way the spin-point is used as the week continues."

3. The day we stop being angry about the stolen 2000 election

and what has happened since then is the day we may as well just forget it all.

4. Anger is Healthy!

I don't get what all this negaticve crap about Anger is anyway.

When I was into my "Drum naked in the Woods" period, we learned that anger can be a VERY healthy force. What do you do about injustice if it doesn't make you angry? Does the thought of children going hungry while Industrialists can't make up their minds which H-2 to drive make you angry?

Does Bush make you angry? how about the thought of being STUCK with him via Martial Law?

When anger is denied a healthy, safe outlet, it becomes internalized. internalized and then it feeds your "shadow", and that's the very worst you can get from it. Witness the result of a generation of Men being told to "Be Nice"...

Just because I'm angry doesn't mean I'm out to cripple the first innocent that crosses my path.

5. I reserve the right to get angry

when an unelected nincompoop sends Americans to die in Iraq for no good reason and lies about it.

6. Anger=passion

It means you care. That's a good thing.

I'm glad others are angry. I'm angry about what the Repukes are doing to our country. If you're not angry, you're not paying attention.
