I'm 51 and angry and I'm NOT going to take it anymore!!
Damn I'm soooo angry!! I'm pissed off as hell! I want to throttle the powers that be!
I want to squash them like a bug! I want to stomp them into innilhation!(sp?)
I mean..."I wanna kill!!!!!!!" excerpt from: http://www.arlo.net/lyrics/alices.shtml

From: "Alice's Restaurant"(about the draft during the Vietnam War)
They got a building down New York City, it's called Whitehall Street,
where you walk in, you get injected, inspected, detected, infected,
neglected and selected. I went down to get my physical examination one
day, and I walked in, I sat down, got good and drunk the night before, so
I looked and felt my best when I went in that morning. `Cause I wanted to
look like the all-American kid from New York City, man I wanted, I wanted
to feel like the all-, I wanted to be the all American kid from New York,
and I walked in, sat down, I was hung down, brung down, hung up, and all
kinds o' mean nasty ugly things. And I waked in and sat down and they gave
me a piece of paper, said, "Kid, see the phsychiatrist, room 604."

And I went up there, I said, "Shrink, I want to kill.
I mean, I wanna, I wanna kill. Kill. I wanna, I wanna see,
I wanna see blood and gore and guts and veins in my teeth.
Eat dead burnt bodies. I mean kill, Kill, KILL, KILL."
And I started jumpin up and down yelling, "KILL, KILL,"
and he started jumpin up and down with me and we was both
jumping up and down yelling, "KILL, KILL."
And the sargent came over, pinned a medal on me,
sent me down the hall, said,

"You're our boy."


Didn't feel too good about it...



I want to rip their lungs out through their assh**es and blow them up with a vacummn cleaner!

I have every right to be angry and I've been suppressing it for far to long!

To the so called "progressive moderator" BITCH (another messageboard) who wished my son would die in Iraq!
FUCK YOU!!!!! :nuke:

To the assholes who 'voted' for and still support 'bush Junior'?? Bite me! DIE!!

To the minions (a sycophant); lemmings (known for periodic mass migrations that sometimes end in drowning);
who keep saying, "Just be nice, give them a chance"... NOOOO!!! FUCK THAT!!!

Hey Kerry?
When someone sucker punches me? I hit back!! Fast and HARD!!!!!!!!
Any other reaction is an EXCUSE!!!!!!!
How in HELL did you vote WITH the REPIGS?????? :shrug:
I just do NOT get it! Still! :wtf:

And Hillary?? WAR IS NOT THE ANSWER!!!!! Screw the DLC!!!
Tell them to take a hike or we ALL turn our backs on YOU!!


Biden?? You fucken' turncoat!!
I had such hopes! gheesh...

Biden VOTES!... ON THE RECORD!
He said YES to:
http://www.pacificviews.org/weblog/archives/000966.html
March 14, 2005
Joe Biden votes FOR the Bankruptcy Bill!! :grr:
When researching the Democrat Senators that voted for the Bankruptcy bill,
I found that the Senators from Delaware were the top recipients of campaign cash
from the Finance/Credit Card industries.

And I found that neither of them had any press releases explaining their votes for this bill!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Could I go on?? Hell yes!!! :grr:
But I fear the moderators will silence me.... ;)

Oh...did I mention Iraq? :grr: :grr:
mutha fuka's!!!
I can't even go there....not ready to articulate the rage.
I'm still fuming, seething... not yet. Not ready. But it's coming...




Please ...share your outrages!!!
;)

26. I had to think
those words over. It took me awhile. Thank you for saying them.
I'm still thinking about what you wrote, I'll admit.
But I think I like it... so far. ;)

4. Yep..Good Rant. I'd like to tell you how Pissed off I am....
(at the American People)
Sometimes I think all the Democrats should get together and decide to "Punish"
the sons-a-bitches that voted for the Repugs.
We'll just say "Alright, you fucking assholes...you wanted the Republicans?
Fine!..for the next 4 years ALL the Democrats are gonna vote for every stupid, vile,
Hillbilly, Pig-Fucking, crooked-ass Republican" Will the country go down the drain?
Hell yes!..but at least we (the Democrats) can enjoy seeing you worthless pieces of human trash
go down with it.

But then..I calm down and think..Naw.. :)

It's a bunch of bogus bullshit you're shilling, and I am not having it.

Find something more you're angry about, not Kerry.

There have been many threads on him. Attack someone else.

And finally, you are not alone. We are ALL angry!

Our anger needs to now be directed at the criminals and the ONE man that caused all of this mess.

18. You're right. and
BTW? Welcome.
I can't blame just one person.
But I just don't understand how he sided with Bush!!
I mean, I don't have a degree in Poly-Sci but (I did get an A+) even I knew that was BAD!!
It was just common sense and he blew it! What the hell was he thinking?
I literally burst into tears when I heard/saw that vote!
I felt my world crashing down around me.
I don't think I can trust him again.... and that hurts!
It really hurts...

I feel let down... dishonored/ignored after all these years of support.
gheesh...

30. Those of us who have some common sense and
a brain have been insulted and fooled by this regime, but, I must say I saw/heard the warning signs a long time ago, it all began when the Supreme Court got involved and picked this stupid man. This one man and his cabal have raped this country and its' people and doing much harm to even our environment. I don't know but if something is not done we will all pay the price for this arrogant and ignorance regime.

24. I’m still mad as hell !!!
Edited on Mon Jun-05-06 04:15 AM by Breeze54
"I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting...

I know you said
Can’t you just get over it
It turned my whole world around

Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting..."

I’m still mad as hell!

31. Kerry is only a part of the anger... just a part
You are probably angry at the same dickheads that I'm angry with!
But the list is getting longer and longer every senate and congressional session.
Isn't it? It is for me.

BTW? :hi: to you too!

9. I'm 51 and I'm not filled with rage. . .
Too much to do to waste time consumed with rage. Fill yourself with purpose, instead, then act upon it, and maybe we'll die in a better land than we live in today. At least then, we can hope our children will live in better times . . .

15. I've been filled with
purpose. I have worked for "the cause".
I worked my ass off for Kerry in '04.
The election came and a month later my son got deployment orders.
:grr: :cry:
I've had enough of "playing nice"!

NOT READY TO MAKE NICE!!! NOT ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been sooo nice and ya know what? It gets you no where!
Maybe I was 'nice' because I was too numb with fear and outrage?
That's what I'm exploring and it's scary...

The tension is insane... the tears come at odd and inopportune times.
I'm just, maybe, relieving the stress? I don't know.

19. No one -- least of all me -- told you to "play nice" . . .
that's a chimera you've created of your own mind and soul. What you truly need to question is, why are you wasting so much energy in fruitless anger and impotent rage. Reasons and causes are well known to us all and need no further elucidation. Better to devote yourself to solutions and acts than to lose yourself in useless sputterings. That's what BushCo -- and all their minions -- want you to do: remain blindly angry so you'll remain flummoxed. You must deny them their triumph by retaining your control. In this manner, you'll effectively work for what you believe and accomplish far more than you imagined.

34. That was a reference to the dixie chicks newest song...
"I'm not ready to make nice" ...

Not in reference to anything you said.
Total misunderstanding. Sorry that you didn't 'get' the reference.

Here's the Link to their new song--> http://www.dixiechicks.com/

DIXIE CHICKS New Album 'TAKING THE LONG WAY'

20. Awesome Rant!
I don't get the criticism-there is nothing wrong with anything you said! People need to start getting real honest about what's going on and stop living in denial because our dem leaders-Kerry, Clinton etc-are way too damn busy playing politics with each other and cozying up to their corporate sponsors to care that the country is

ON FUCKING FIRE!!!

Damn straight you are pissed, I'm pissed too! Anyone who isn't is NOT paying attention!
