Don't think I can take much more.

Now a Repub senator is claiming a cover up in Libya. They will fight tooth and nail with inunendos and out right lies to the bitter end. The level of deception and cheating they will go to amazes me. It causes such tension in my stomach. I don't know if I can take more of this until November.

Mushrooms tell you inspiring things and bring you in closer harmony to the earth.

I am preeety sure Shrooms are Pro-Obama. I think that's what they said. It's hard to tell
cause they talk in picture-words.

Don't worry. Scoring political points affirm a tragedy is just a little too transparent at this stage of the game. The only people who will be persuaded by this are already voting for Romney.

You can still be informed and come here when you need more info without subjecting yourself to the full barrage.

Just figure out what works best for you to keep you grounded and fighting the good fight.

This group of bozos WILL fight to the bitter end, but we don't have to stand there watching them like a car accident.

Lying and cheating reach critical mass and only works against you. I think this is the case in this election. If you have a lot of anxiety, I suggest you stay away from all news and politics until after the election.

I do come here when I can't take it anymore. Here I hear what has happened in the news without the negative spin. I use to depend on Politico and Huffingtonpost but Politico's comment section seems to have been taken over by Repub RWs. I'm going through a bottle of Tums. What worries me is that so many people actually believe the junk they are spitting out.
