Reply #69: I hear ya

After November, 2004, I cancelled the newspapers and quit watching TV news of all kinds. A couple of months later, I restarted the papers, but I still don't watch the news or search the Internet for political news. I get good leads here on DU.

But, yeah, I know exactly what you mean about losing heart. It's just about impossible to keep going when you seem to be taking one step up and two steps down. Plus, things are never as they seem.

It would be good if wrongdoing took place (see, I'm not convinced it did) that those people would be brought to justice, but the truth is that I have a deep and gnawing feeling that nothing will come of this.

If that's the case, I'm out of it all for good.
