we're DOOOOOOOOOOOmed (a rant)
please convince me other wise.....
I really (for the first time) feel like Cassandra....
I can't believe the people are so completely snowed....
I hate this President.... I hate the way he smirks and tosses his head when he thinks he has "stuck it to someone" (what gestures does he have that you hate?)
I hate the anti-intellectualism that he has subjected us to.
I hate the way Democrats are divided.... we will NEVER get this man out ANY other way.
If my mom was not elderly, I would move to Canada!

1. what of his gestures do I hate?
Hmm... I'll try to narrow it down.

Can his entire face be considered a gesture?

How about his voice?

Those'd be my top two.

2. I go back and forth
between being terrified he'll stay in power, and having the hope that people are finally so disgusted that they'll vote him out of office in a free election in November.

Canada won't be far enough away.

We have a son who is only in 11th grade now, and we're feeling trapped, but we're exploring alternatives.

5. we're not doomed
all is well. The field of candidates is strong, and some of them are pulling no punches. We will win, because we are right.

6. DU seems to be wracked with violent mood swings :-)
I've always had a general confidence that Bush will be out--he's exasperating even for his own electorate.

7. The gesture I hate most of his is when he wakes up in the morning. . .
If he'd just stop doing that, I'd be fine :)

8. I've been feeling the same way lately
Edited on Wed Jan-07-04 10:51 AM by KCDem
I feel like the Democratic party should just bend over and take it up the tailpipe. I feel that this country doesn't want a second party anymore. I feel like everyone doesn't even want to think about government; they just want it to exist for them, and they're perfectly happy with Bush. I feel like people think religion and politics should be intertwined. I feel like women's rights are being washed down the toilet as I type.

Stick a fork in America. It's done.

on edit: sorry, I know you wanted cheering up. Maybe some other time. ;)
