I apologize but I'm taking great joy from there misery over there. A few samples for your perusal....
I am such a mess. Physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually.
I had no idea this would hit me so hard. I feel that all my hopes for the future have been shattered. Evil, hate and greed are rewarded. Wrong is Right. Fascism will prevail. Not to mention increased terrorism, hate crimes, isolation from the global community, loss of civil rights, etc.
AND, we have to look and listen to the f**king Chimp for another 4 long, miserable years. I don't know what to do. I am really beside myself and almost feel like I am on the verge of a nervous breakdown.I am sick to my stomach and I feel like I am going to have a heart attack.
I started smoking again, I can't bear the thought of going to work tomorrow, and I really don't have much hope at the moment. I can't eat, I've cocooned myself in my bed all day and have avoided every phone call. Oh - and I broke up with my boyfriend. You are not alone.
My heart feels like it's actually broken and I am afraid to leave the house because I am not in control of the rage I feel, and fear that the smallest thing will set me off.
I always thought that things were never quite as bad as they seemed, and that Americans were mostly good. But I think things have really turned... they are perhaps even worse than they seem, and perhaps the American empire is entering its terminal phase with a lot of pain and suffering ahead.
It feels an awful lot like what I imagine Berlin in 1938 was like.
I'm so venomous right now, I swear I'm growing fangs.
I have a background of depression (mostly from my days of living closeted) and am worried that the funk that I am dealing with might go long term. I cannot let that happen.
To that end, I am going to continue to devote a good chunk of time with a couple causes, to keep me going.
If things get really tough, get a really good friend or family member and just let go.
My son didn't want to go to school today
and face the jeers of his 6th grade classmates in our predominantly republican rural community. I bought him a donut at the local shop and reminded him that we still have to tell people that the war is wrong, that the poor need an advocate and that our planet is not their trashcan.
After pushed him out the door I had to give myself the same speech.
That sums things up beautifully
"we still have to tell people that the war is wrong, that the poor need an advocate and that our planet is not their trashcan."
Of course, unfortunately, the Pukes simply don't think these things are important. I just got off the phone with a dear friend who keeps insisting Iraq had something to do with 9/11 and if we "don't fight them over there we'll have to fight them here".
This is how Bush wants you to feel and he's hoping you'll go away, don't go away, in four years time USA will still be suffering from his policies, the economy and Iraq will still be great problem.
As I see it, whatever they say, it isn't a landslide, almost half the American people wanted a change, there were people who didn't vote, which is unforgivable, they may rue the day they didn't and will be there next time, in force.
I hope that we will get a chance in 4 yrs. I am angry, but not sure who to be mad at. I feel like Kerry played us and took one for the team (s and B)with no intention of ever winning. I don't know where to turn I told my friend to take pictures of the trees and all the open areas of beauty around us now because it won't be their for long. I fear for our troops and the kids that are going to be drafted. I applied for passports for my family today just in case I need. I think Democracy died yeasterday in America I never wanted to believe it could happen. There are protesters here in oregon tonight. I am still in shock. I don't like the mixed up feelings that I have because I have no way of seperating them all.
Don't mean to sound trite, but I share your pain.
I had an appointment with my counselor today, and she encouraged me to not look too far in the future and the terrible possibilities it holds.
I managed to calm down and try to focus on the things that bring me some small measure of contentment. It is very hard--the more I hear about Tuesday's fiascos and the evil people who made them happen, the angrier and more frustrated I get. This is producing physical symptoms similar to yours. It's up to me to get a handle on this, I know, but damn, it's hard. Like you, I cannot bear the thought of looking and listening to Bush for the next four years. I have determined I will NOT do that. Thank God for remote controls.
I wish I had the words to make you and me feel better about all this. But I do not. All I can think to do is resolve to do everything I can to stop the fascist juggernaut that is speeding toward us. I must try, for my children, grandchildren, and all of us who share this planet.
We can blame the government schools for that one. Facism is the most basic element of socialism, i.e. control. (that's what faeces means)
As a Christian, I'm not proud of enjoying other's misery. But these people are truely lost and evil. They are a threat to our freedom, more than the Islamic murderers.
I've never enjoyed the losers agony as much as in this election, not even in 1980 or in 2000. Had they not been so abusive and so hateful, I don't think most of us would feel this way. But after months of the insane charges, the lies, and the insults -- well, to paraphrase Patrick Henry, if this be cruelty, then let's make the most of it. It also exposes the extreme emotional instability of many of these people, which goes beyond even what I had expected.
As an atheist, I'm having the time of my life!! LOL!!
Your son was allowed to go to the regular school? And your husband was not taken from your home one night by force for nothing, and kept incarcerated? Was your place of worship trashed? Are you allowed to go to the regular park? Are you not forced to wear a symbol on your sleeve? Allowed to keep your shop?
If so, you deserve a slap in the face for that comment.
I love every minute of this! These wimps are such emotional cripples they are laughable! They literally do need Big Government to coddle them and tuck them in and tell them everything will be allright. They have no ability to deal with the big bad world on their own.
My god, this woman is seriesly mentally ill. So sad that she has a child. I feel sorry for this kid whose mind she is poisening with her sickness. Next her Dr. sounds as sick as she is. She needs to change dr's. I am assuming this person is a woman. Last, now she knows how we felt every time we had to mute that ugly horseface Kerry. The difference is Republicans seem to have a much better grasp of situations. These people just fall apart. Or possibly the radical left wing Democrat party just attracts these mentally ill people.
This person really did take the lies of her/his party too seriously. Wow, this is bordering on needing to go to the loony bin.
If you honestly believe that President Bush is a fascist, and that things will be worse, then I think you're delusional, as well as clinically depressed. I think some anti-depressants and anti-anxiety medications would be a tremendous help.
There are probably pockets of sites online where liberals are not coping well.
What gets me is these people actually think that they are right, and that killing babies and being gay is good for the country. That trying to clean up after them is evil.
Yeah that was great.
You know what hit me today as I listened to Bush giv ehis speech? When he said he wanted to talk directly to those who voted FOR his opponent. THe first thing I thought of was that he was not talking to a single DUmmie. DUmmies did not vote for sKerry, they voted AGAINST BUSH and I think that Bush knew that and was talking to the Joe Lieberman, Zell Miller types to leave the party that has been hijacked by the Bush/Christian hating DUmmies.
Your thoughts?
I know what you mean. I don't mind horseface anymore and its been kind of fun to watch MSM today.
In one of the posts above, poster said they had heard George Bush wanted in the Lamb's Book of Life so bad. I've got news for this person. He's already there.
Man, I'd like to have that counselors income for the next few months...
It's Chode!
