Could use a little CHEERING UP from DU
Edited on Fri Jun-16-06 12:25 PM by ih8thegop
The GOP's attack on American values (notably fredom of expression) and the media's bias have been getting me down (plus a few other things).

But maybe something funny, or enlightening, or just uplifting, will help me through.

10. Hey! Don't I know you from last night? You made me feel great!
I was in such a dilemma because of the "boyfriend mad at me for my reading DU" thingy. Although I'm in a rather tender hearted stage right now, I do recall you posting some uplifting and encouraging words for me.

I'm down from all the media bias and exploitation of our America by the GOP also.
Sometimes I have to take a few days of not listening to anyof it, just to preserve my strength for the long fight ahead.
Like a time out for my soul. Ya know?

Granted, the GOP fight will be there when I return, I just take care of the "other things" waiting to be dealt with.

As a favor to you for your presence in my post of last night, may I ask about those "other things"?

Maybe we can find a resolution to some of them.
I'd do all I can to help you if you like..
I have a little time now...c'mon tell me..

Well I love you anyway....(unless you're a violent tempered GOP exboyfriend, who is afraid of being spied on by the gov't for reading DU, that is.)

Blaze

11. He,he,he!! At first glance, I thought your name was
"I ATE the GOP!" :rofl:

Ok...when I'm really desperately in need of cheering up?
I go here and read the Readers Mail! It is a hoot!
I usually end up crying, I'm laughing so hard! :)

Every day, tens of thousands of people from all around the globe
come to kneel at the political altar of WHITEHOUSE.ORG and GeorgeWBush.org.
A small, unedited sampling of their voluminous feedback follows:

If you are feeling a little vindictive?
Go here (for kicks!) :)
'Go Fug Yourself' :rofl:

13. Well...
...:hug: There's a hug for you. :) I wish I had a pic of this, but our dog Vicki (looks like the RCA Victor dog but taller and leaner) slept on her back last night and had her feet straight up in the air. She was dreaming something good, too, because she started whining in her sleep, and her feet were moving like she was chasing something. Probably dreaming of chasing squirrels or rabbits in our back yard. :)
