Just watched CBS and bush agenda - I feel so sick and helpless
I just want to crawl out of my skin
quit my citizenship and move to somewhere else
all of our tax money will go to pay their retirements and benefits - we will have nothing - serfs -

1. Join the moratorium on watching the news
you will feel better for it.

2. Oh, God
And I used to so enjoy going home to watch the news. How'm I going to avoid seeing the Effing President of the United States for four years? :mad:

3. I don't know that imagining what might be on the news may not be worse
than actually seeing a short news summary. CBS or PBS.... I'm limiting news radio to AAR, right now--can't even stand to risk listening to NPR, because if Cokie Roberts comes on, I'm sure to go slit my wrists!

4. Going Cold Turkey
I'll get my news from DU. No more tv news at all. Haven't turned on the conservative news network or RNCBC etc for two days, its like going through withdraw, but hey I quit smoking after 20 years so nothings impossible.

6. I know me either and if my spouse has it on I either leave the room
or ask him to turn it for now. It does feel weird though--kind of like a break up with a bad relationship--freeing, but there's still a void:D

5. National sales tax is coming
I dunno how we'll pay for all of our wars but I guess we should be able to continue borrowing billions from China for a couple more years at least.
