Has Bush* stolen our sense of humor?

Are we laughing less? Has our joyfilled out look at life been depressed?

Where have all the smiles gone?

3. Maybe he has....he seems to find all this very amusing....

Constantly smirking and grinning when discussing the tragic events that unfold daily.

His smirk has been much more pronounced lately, since it seems to be a defensive expression.

6. It has gotten to me.

Normally a happy guy, I find in the last year that I am feeling dread in my gut. It makes me less perky shall we say. Gotten a little better now that I believes the Dem's are on track and are comitted to winning.

7. Ah, picture your smile in November, though

We are causing so much pain throughout the world, it's hard to justify smiling. I watched the Masters, but couldn't shake the realization of what our troops and the Iraqi civilians were going through in Fallujah, because of my nation. No matter what I've done to protest W, I still feel personally responsible for his sins. Not as responsible as Bush's supporters should feel, maybe. But that guilt differential hardly matters to grieving parents in Fallujah, and here.

8. I dunno, I laugh at * all the time

It cycles between anger because he infuriates me to no end just by being himself, sorrow for what he has done to our country, but I never fail to laugh at his ineptitude, his incurious nature, his adolescent intellect, his fake "down homeyness", his sterling oratory, :crazy: . P.S. Hey George, this November..... You're Fired.
