GOOD. Christmas is over and now I can let my true hatred for bushco OUT
Yep. I was just waiting until the holidays were over. And since New Year's is nothing particularly sacred (but just wait until the fundies make up some shit for THAT, too), I feel free to let loose now. (Plus I enjoy Christmas and was trying not to even THINK of bushco during that time.)

But watch out now. I don't have a candidate I have to be "nice" for anymore. I am truly part of the opposition and bushco are a bunch of lame ducks. Let someone TRY to shut me up. See what happens.

I'm ready to dish out everything I get from the right. And they deserve every single little bit of it, too. Oh and any elected Dems who go all wimpified on me are going to hear from me, too. I do NOT appreciate that.



Who's with me?

2. Sadly, my Grandma is still in town so I can't let loose.
But she leaves New Years Eve and let 'er rip.

4. And for inspiration
and because I am totally serious, some quotes to get us going:

“...when the fight begins within himself,
a man's worth something.” -Robert Browning,
Bishop Blougram's Apology, 1855

This was freedom. Losing all hope was freedom. ~Chapter 2
(Fight Club)

You buy furniture. You tell yourself, this is the last sofa I will ever need in my life. Buy the sofa, then for a couple years you're satisfied that no matter what goes wrong, at least you've got your sofa issue handled. Then the right set of dishes. Then the perfect bed. The drapes. The rug. Then you're trapped in your lovely nest, and the things you used to own, now they own you. ~Chapter 5

"It's only after you've lost everything," Tyler says, "that you're free to do anything." ~Chapter 8

7. And how did I miss this one?
"We don't have a great war in our generation, or a great depression, but we do, we have a great war of the spirit. We have a great revolution against the culture. The great depression is our lives. We have a spiritual depression." ~Chapter 19

9. Heh. Me too. Actually,
I didn't let the holiday festivities stop me. I got in 1 little jab at the Christmas party about Bush. I just threw it out there about the bastard, but no one took the bait. I just shrugged my shoulders and went for some more holiday goodies.

Say what one will about the Americans, but we are A NATION OF FIGHTERS. And I love that. I went back to Sweden this summer, and I was just astonished about how whimpy they were about Bush and his evil minions. I tried! believe me I gave it my best shot. They just smiled and poured my another cup of coffee. They had NO idea what I was talking about.

"Bush is doing that?" they smiled. "Oh, well!" They probably thought I was a very frustrated individual, and maybe a squeeze-ball would fix me. I was frustrated! But a frustration ball wasn't going to fix things.

The minute I stepped on Terra Firma back in the US, the fight was on. I listened to the rabblerousers on Air America Radio, and I knew I was back in my Fishin' Fish tank. I got my bristle up again.

I thought to myself: the change is going to come from right here in the US, not anywhere else. WE are going to get these asses out, because no one else is capable of doing it.

10. Amen and hear, hear.
I'm ready. Let's rumble. I've been fucking saving this up for toooooo damn long now. I was Ms. Nicey-Nice-Nice during the campaign (but not too nice, I was trying to be persuasive too) because yelling that someone's candidate is a Mother Fucking Warmongering Murderous Lying Election Thieving Bastard Asshole From Hell isn't exactly the way to get them to vote for YOUR candidate, LOL.

But no more.

I'm not even going to self-identify as a Dem anymore, so that it's NO reflection on the party. I will be a member of the Bush is a Mother Fucker Party.

How's that?

12. In fact, what can I do to get started today?
Where can I start stirring the shit pot with bushies? Any ideas? Could be on the internet, could be in person, I don't care.

13. Maybe wear my shirt
with the Nelson Mandela quote and the upraised red fist out to where people are shopping the post-Christmas sales and speak really loudly with my best friend about how much we HATE bush and all the horrible things he has done to this country?
