Try to be nice, and do something that makes you laugh instead of beating on the keyboard with malice.

Everyone has things in their life that can make them obsess if they let it. Move on and think about positive things like the Rats losing Congress this year and The White House in 2012.

If you just cannot bring yourself to be cheerful and upbeat on your own, I have something to suggest that is sure fire mood elevater.

Go to Walmart to their Card section thinking of buying a card for a friend or relative having a birthday in the near future. Make sure you are in the funny card area with or without sound implanted. Throw caution to the wind, and laugh out loud when you feel the urge, and pretty soon other card readers will want to see what you are laughing at. Soon you are all showing each other cards and you are all laughing with gusto.

It works every time. People taking time to do something nice,make new friends, feel happy and upbeat, and share that joy with others. Try it, won't you?

I even talked politics with a former Democrat from Pa., that changed because of Obama /Biden, and is a very Conservative Lady, and about my age. I even gave her the FR address, and told her all about it. She needs more info to tell her liberal friends how wrong they are, and to counter their BS lies.

When you go and buy a card that has sound and is very funny, play it over the phone to a friend, you will make them smile and maybe make their day. Life is too short, and we have miles to go before we sleep.

You keep offering personal insults, and personal attacks, and false accusations, but why not respond to post 252 in a responsible manner?

You are soooooo right. And what could be funnier
than Mitt Romney --- exposed dog abuser --- running
to make certain the world knows about it?

"But the details of the event are more than unseemly — they may, in fact, be illegal.
Massachusetts's animal cruelty laws specifically prohibit anyone
from carrying an animal "in or upon a vehicle, or otherwise, in an unnecessarily cruel
or inhuman manner or in a way and manner which might endanger the
animal carried thereon." An officer for the Massachusetts Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals responded to a description of the situation
saying "it's definitely something I'd want to check out." The officer,
Nadia Branca, declined to give a definitive opinion on whether Romney broke the law
but did note that it's against state law to have a dog in an open bed of a pick-up truck,
and "if the dog was being carried in a way that endangers it, that would be illegal."

"Dog on Roof? What Was It Like for Romney's Pooch?
Scientists Say Dog Likely Experienced Wind-Whipped, Uncomfortable Trip
"Before beginning the drive, Mitt Romney put Seamus, the family's hulking Irish setter,
in a dog carrier and attached it to the station wagon's roof rack.
e'd built a windshield for the carrier, to make the ride more comfortable for the dog," read the article.
Jordan Kaplan, the owner of Petaholics, a dog walking service in New York City,
and a lifelong dog owner and dog lover, said Romney's actions were uncalled for.
....What Happens to a Dog on a Roof Traveling 50 MPH?"

"Romney's dog - This is a distinction Mitt Romney probably could do without, but he is surely
the first presidential candidate to be attacked for putting a dog with diarrhea
in a carrier and tying it to the top of a station wagon.
Romney's defense: Seamus liked it. "He scrambled up there every time we went on trips,"
the Republican said during a campaign stop in Pittsburgh. "He got in all by himself and enjoyed it."

"As the oldest son, Tagg Romney commandeered the way-back of the wagon,
keeping his eyes fixed out the rear window, where he glimpsed the first sign of trouble.
''Dad!'' he yelled. ''Gross!'' A brown liquid was dripping down the back window,
payback from an Irish setter who'd been riding on the roof in the wind for hours.
As the rest of the boys joined in the howls of disgust,
Romney coolly pulled off the highway and into a service station.
There, he borrowed a hose, washed down Seamus and the car,
then hopped back onto the highway."

Romney's bad behavior Exposed by Seamus

"Romney Loses Nomination Over Dog Abuse?
Romney was traveling that summer with his wife, five sons, and Seamus to his parent's cottage on Lake Huron.
But hours into the ride, Seamus apparently suffered diarrhea,
which ran down the back window of the car. Romney's sons, all under 13, howled in disgust.
Romney pulled off the road into a service station.
There, he borrowed a hose, washed down Seamus and the car, and they drove on to Ontario.

"It also strikes me as classic Romney: it solves a problem efficiently,
in a business-like manner, and with no regard whatsoever
for the suffering that the solution may cause."
