2. Order of Protection
Imagine petitioning the Supreme Court for one of those when Bush gets through with it.

The Supreme Court. Oh my god...

3. My sentiments exactly

A month ago, I was comparing Bush supporters to a battered woman. HOW MANY TIMES does one have to be hit and sent to the hospital before she finally walks away?

4. anyone remember that famous essay "The Student as Nigger"
today it is the democrat as nigger. Sorry for the offensive word but that's the truth...oppressed, treated like crap, told to shut up and sit down.

7. As a west coaster, I am fed up with the southeastern US
Edited on Wed Nov-03-04 02:05 PM by Cleita
determining my fate for me, using my taxes for things I don't want, and draining money we need badly here for education, health care and environmental problems. Things need to change starting here. You fellows back east are going to need to do your housecleaning as well, but without my help.
