TCRLAF | 8.7.2011 | TCRLAF

[tcrlaf]

I wonder what this Bay Area nutjob THOUGHT was going to happen when he fought to put Democrats in Charge???

I want my f*#%ing life back

I want to not be invisible anymore.

I want to get up and shower and have somewhere to go.

I want to punch the people who talk about the recession being over.

I want to not have to choose between toilet paper or dog food.

I want to take back all the money I spent on student loans for an education that does me no good now.

I want to stop mending the waistband of five-year-old sweatpants.

I want to not consider two tacos for a dollar at Jack In The Box a splurge.

I want to walk into a job interview not reeking of desperation.

I want to be able to afford a simple goddamned urn for my daughter's ashes.

I want to pay just one bill on its due date, not have to wait until the FINAL NOTICE.

I want to be able to drive across town to pick my kid up so he doesn't have to walk in the rain.

I want to shop at the Dollar Store because I'm thrifty, not because it is the only way I can afford luxuries like body wash, toothpaste and laundry soap.

I want to be able to drive the two hours to Santa Cruz to visit my dying friend.

I want to pay for a haircut, instead of using the kitchen scissors to “even up the ends again”.

I want to have a shit job to bitch about.

I want to not panic every time the doorbell rings unexpectedly.

I want to split a tab or treat someone to something.

I want to wear contact lenses again, instead of these wobbly old glasses.

I want to be able to buy a present for my goddaughters.

I want to go to the theater to see a movie and pay for my own damn ticket.

I want to drive a completely legal car legally.

I want to not have to choose between buying tampons or a pound of ground beef.

I want to buy a book that ISN'T on the 25-cent rack at the Thrift Store.

I want to stop avoiding my friends because they're pitying or worse.

I want to not have to invent new ways to rearrange my resume and STILL get no response.

I want to get my dogs their shots so I can take them to the park.

I want to use good trash bags.

I want to wake up without dread that today is the day it will all come tumbling down.

I want to consider owning a spicebox and a mortar and pestle NOT a pipe dream.

I want a new bra.

I want to feel like a real person again.

I want to BE a real person again.

I am sick to death of this Middle Class poverty (not a penny to my name, but the remnants of a better life all around me)

I am sick to death of dumbing down my resume, groveling for jobs I could have done at sixteen and STILL not getting hired.

I am sick to death of feeling powerless.

I am sick to death of apologizing and being shamed and embarrassed for being one of the long-term unemployed.

I am sick to death of tailoring my resume to each job and STILL not getting a response from 99% of the companies I apply to.

I am sick to death of people telling me that I “really should see a doctor” when nothing would please me more, except that I can't afford to do so.

I am sick to death of not even getting interviewed for open positions, and then getting shitty service from the person they DID hire when I didn't even get an interview.

I am sick to death of turning down invitations to do things with friends, because I can't afford to do so.

I am sick to death of pretending that holidays don't exist because I can't afford to celebrate them.

I am sick to death of throwing away 2/3 of my mail without even opening it because I know that there's a bill or a statement from someone I owe that I can't afford to pay.

I am sick to death of explaining to other people that “getting a job at McDonalds” is not as simple as they think.

I am sick to death of hiding, being quiet, trying to play nice, mentally composing suicide letters, trying to figure out who can take care of my dogs/cat/kid when it all goes to hell like it is bound to do.

I am sick to death of feeling powerless.

I am sick to death of being unable to pay my own way.

I am sick to death of people telling me that “it could be worse”, because I know that it could and I am convinced that it will and I am only biding my time in this limbo which is a certain kind of hell all its own.

I am sick to death of these conversations where my friends and I try to brainstorm ways to get the hell out of this town/state in hopes that there is some place where we can still trade hard work for decent wages and crawl out of the hellhole we've fallen into.

I am sick to death of having to look my son in the eye and admit that I have failed him, that I failed his sister, that I have failed us all.

I am sick. And sad. And exhausted. And undone.

KOS Dude:

The thing is jobs, stupid. Tax, and tax, and tax the jobs, and they go away to other states or countries where they WANT the jobs. Punish, and punish and punish the rich, and they stop spending money on things that they could be buying...from you or your employers. Drive Union wages up, and up, and up...and they find someplace where they can make things cheaper.

This bottomless recession was made by a Democratic Congress that decided that EVERYBODY deserved to have a house, because it is UNFAIR that some people can't afford them. And when you hand out loans like throwing candy to people that really have no business borrowing money (on the idea that the property will ALWAYS be worth more, anyway) you artificially inflate the real estate market. It's called "buying on margin", and it worked so well in the stock market last time round, didn't it? Yep, what put us in this pot was touchy-feely politics that made your Democratic Reps FEEL GOOD about "helping" people...and the fake sales it generated convinced otherwise sensible bankers to make STUPID loans for the commissions, because hey, if it all goes BUST Uncle Sugar will pick up the tab. And when it all fell apart, the crazy "stimulus" bill (again, brought to you by the Democrats) was chock full of every damn fool giveaway they couldn't get passed in the past fifty years, because hey, "it's going to keep unemployment under 8%! Promise!")

Jeez...Leftists.

Like Churchill said: "If you are under twenty and are not a Liberal, you have no heart. If you are over twenty and are not a Conservative, you have no brain."

[Noumenon]

And I’m glad to count you among my countrymen. Heavy weather ahead...

[I still care]

I feel bad also.

The one that got me was the one where she knows she needs to see a doctor, and can’t afford it. That’s horrible.

What’s even more horrible, though, is that there is a whole bunch of people out there who have no concept of how their votes for this catastrophic president and his vile party put them in this position.

They’ve spent years of their lives warring against prosperity and now they are uncomprehending as to why they are living in an unprosperous nation.

[CitizenM]

What's sad is that this woman HAS children. And surprising. I thought good Libs aborted their kids if they felt they couldn't take care of them.

Guess this nut has given us a few more who will continue to vote for Left wingers and never see the light of day about the plight the Dems have kept her in. It is called subservience, stupid. Their game plan is working. Stop complaining, Obama has made sure your economic status is being shared by many, many more.

[Vision]

I want I want.

It’s called reap what you sow, arrogant moron.

[tcrlaf]

“I can’t work up anything but pity.”

Sorry, I have anything BUT pity for this person.

Karma can be a real bitch. And this is one of those people who organized and agitated to get Pelosi elected in 2006, and Obama elected in 2008.

She was gullible, and fell for all of the bovine excrement the Dems and their Big Media allies were throwing.

Children aside, this is Political Darwinism in action.

[N. Theknow]

The one that got me was the one where she knows she needs to see a doctor, and can’t afford it. That’s horrible.

Speak Spanish and go to the ER. Problem eh-solved.

[50sDad]

“Powerless”? “POWERLESS”? But...the man-child President loves you so! And his wife the Empress wants you eating healthy fruits and vegetables! YOU have the power! You voted them in, didn’t you?

[NoGrayZone]

I read your tagline. I am a born here NY’er looking to to get the hell out.

I can’t do much for you....except send you real bagels. If interested, FReepmail me! =)

[samtheman]

Punish, and punish and punish the rich, and they stop spending money on things that they could be buying...

...and stop investing in job-creating enterprises.

I work in NYC, in an office infested with leftists (though there are a few of us closet conservatives) and it's always Hate The Rich, Hate The Rich, Hate The Rich, all the live-long day. The funny part is, our company is privately owned, the owners are "rich" and if they weren't (and if they stop being so) then we will all be out of a job.

I don't say anything because we are busy and I have a lot of work to do and the work is interesting but I can't help thinking, "do you want to work for somebody POOR, you stupid f*ing schmuck!!!!"

[Ditter]

but ...but.... but.... I voted for obama because he promised us change......... this is not the kind of change I wanted. sob sob~

[eyedigress]

It’s pretty damn pathetic. Ask one of these whiners to wire a home or business, replace busted glass at starbucks, replace the starter on their car. Ain’t gonna happen.

[tcrlaf]

Check this Kos Komment out:

“when I first was looked at for disability I had to take the MMPI twice. It said I had a Pollyannish view of life. The psychiatrists ruled I had a physiological/real organic illness.”

DUH.............

[pogo101]

Maybe there’s a future conservative posting this! It took a long time for (say) the East Germans to “get it.”

[2ndDivisionVet]

[mowowie]

You don’t have to be a libtard, leftist, moonbat, commie, marxist to write this stuff.
I know all those rejects asked for and voted for this crap.
They asked for global “EQALITY” and now they got it.
Friggin asswipes that they are.

But what about the rest of us? I didn’t vote fore this crap BUT i just as well have written it.
Seventy five percent of this piece could have been written by myself.

Times are frigging tough right now and the future doesn’t seem hopeless, IT IS HOPELESS.

[Chode]

I am sick to death of these conversations where my friends and I try to brainstorm ways to get the hell out of this town/state in hopes that there is some place where we can still trade hard work for decent wages and crawl out of the hellhole we've fallen into.

and where we can vote for the same failed policies and people as where we left and turn where ever we go into the same sh!thole that we made of where we were... right???

[DiogenesLamp]

And there will be weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth.

[Amberdawn]

Ditto.

[tcrlaf]

The difference is that we understand how this happened, and what we have to do to FIX IT.

This Kos moonbat does not....

These people spent YEARS ranting against prosperity, now they can’t figure out where the prosperity went, and why it left. Oprah didn’t tell them THAT part of it.
