Wake Up

We are screwed, we the people need to wake up.
What can a small town girl do? I live in a Rebug town, I drive an 1977 VW bus, they already call me the town hippie.
What can I do to sway them to Peace.

Please Pray for Peace.

1. Try to be honest in all that you say and do....and you'll be fine

The corrupt will "eat their own"....stay out of it....and you'll be fine.

Peace

There are plenty of those here along with a diverse group of people who won't quit fighting for our country.

6. Everyone Is Already Awake. Can't Get To Sleep

Edited on Thu Jun-22-06 03:52 AM by AndyTiedye

The 2 out of 3 who oppose Bush** and the war (i.e. us) are losing sleep because we're afraid of what the regime is doing to our country/the world.

The rest are losing sleep over whatever Faux News tells them to fear.
They are the people Abe Lincoln was talking about when he said "you can fool some of the people all of the time".

8. the backwash isn't being fooled, either.

they're OKAY with all this.

What Jung described as a strata of functional sociopaths operating in society under the radar. They're not all in Washington.

7. Smile and keep them informed.

leave the name-calling to the knuckle-draggers. I deal with people in my GOP-ridden town by being really, really nice. Firm in my disagreement, but nice. It makes them uncomfortable.
