Reply #7: I should say

[Donailin]

that I, myself, am in severe cynical mode big time nowadays. I mean, I'm sitting here listening to the news (which I can barely manage anymore)and Bush is saying that he has" seen the look in his (Rumsfeld's), uh. . , heard the tone of his voice and he is blah blah blah a good secratary of defense yada yada yada blah blah blah deeply caring man"

I mean, someone just shoot me now. I can't take anymore of this twilight zone shit. Christmas is in five days and my vulgarity increases exponentially with every passing soundbyte while my sense of charity decreases at the same rate. In order for me to go back to the kinder gentler trusting Danielle, I would have to get rid of the computer, the radio, the TV, the car, and basically remove myself from civilization in order to be balanced again and have any real hope in our species. This president is ruining my life and my sense of optimism. I hate the son of a bitch so much I can't stand it.
