97. Sure, I've Been Very Upset Before... But Back Then "We The People"
were willing to COME TOGETHER for the greater good. We came together to fight POWER, but now we BLOG and do all those "things" we think will make a difference. Sign petitions, make phone calls, join certain smaller groups, try to be activist, and yet... HERE WE SIT!

I've tried to get others motivated in this very RUBY RED county and it was a disaster! I don't use the word HOPE and haven't for longer than I can remember. But I do use the HOPELESS, and that' exactly how I feel!

No, even during Nixon and the Viet Nam years I NEVER felt so ALONE! This is the WORST I think I've seen!

And what is even worse... we here at DU are voicing our dissent more each and every day, and still it seems we are BEING IGNORED by TPTP!

I don't think they even care and what's more I don't think they intend to be of ANY help! On EITHER SIDE of the aisle! I've begun to think that perhaps if it WAS Repuke in office at least I could BLAME THEM for this instead of the Democrats I have supported for so long!

TWO PARTIES... same policies and acting almost in lock step together, save a few bold souls who give us a shout out, then we realize their CLOUT is minimal!

:eyes: :crazy" :WTF: :shrug:
