I am really getting sick and tired of DU

I really really really wish things were such that we didn't need a place like this and really really really appreciate it being here when we do. Hoping to end the madness someday, onward, thank you and peace to all.

I am just so sick and tired of the assholian bozos lying and cheating and manipulating and hurting us and all the world and needing to have a place like this to get together and work together. I want peace and sweet smelling flowers and a world where people don't have to worry about having enough to eat, can get health care when they need it rather than waiting because they can't afford it until they get supersick and/or die, a place where people don't have to worry about being disappeared in the name of "freedom". I am sick of them all. I want to play.

help teach people how to get their acts together and take advantage of all life has to offer, pet kittens and listen to birds, go for long walks on the beach and movies, keep the bastards who want to screw us under control, clear rubble and debris and help lay waterlines in MS/LA/Iraq.

:scared:

Why can't we all get together and work together for the betterment of the world rather than just living in fear and greed? Huh Mr.bush and dick? Why?

The DU is but one part of a wonderful new worldwide town forum, and is changing the face of government as we know it. Good or bad, government requires our knowledge, our input and our action. DU and other sites like it give us the chance to participate as never before. It takes time to learn and to respond but it's time well spent. My DH just the other day commented on how much he enjoys it when I read DU articles aloud--says he feels that we are both sharing something vitally important. He brought me into politics (through Dean's campaign). Now I can't get enough of it. I don't resent or regret the time I spend here; I look forward to what I can learn every day. Think of it this way: the more time we spend here, constructively, the more we are helping to preserve democratic government.

poetry, to eventually teach the classics. I had a love of Greek and Latin too. I enjoyed sitting with my friends and discussing such things, reading new poems we had written and finding wonder in new authors we had recommended to us or recommended to each other. That was a golden and a dreaming world I actually once knew. And it was all blown apart,that coffee house world, blown into unrecognizable fragments starting 11/22/63. I have NEVER gotten back anything like it.

and all the houses last time I checked. I would gladly spend my time improving things but in this culture you must first BUY.

This is the cheapest activity I can think of aside from sitting on the corner with a sign (I do that saturdays 12:30 to 1:30 thank you) that might make an impact.

I miss LBB (Life Before Bush)when I didn't have to scan the news constantly to see what tragedy he just caused or how he screwed something up again. I never cared much about Politics before Bush got selected and used to have plenty of time to do other things while I left running the United States in the politicians' hands. Sadly, that kind of apathy is probably exactly what led to this current crisis and I vow to never let it happen again. But I would like a wee bit of that time back.

be able to come to where some logic and reason is used. Not that those two things always produce things that turn out right but they are some what in the ball pack any how. I grew up and had to read SI Hayakawa.

for a thread full of people I'd like to sit around with in a coffeehouse, and play and sing for.
