Does Anybody Else Here... Feel A Disturbance... In The Force ???
Maybe it just be me, but I'm feeling silent forces arraying against us. Like right now, and for the next several months.

Just me... I suppose...

1. I think it's because
of the news of the Repubs holding their "war council" earlier today.

When the indictments come out they're going to fight back hard.....very, very hard.

They won't go down easy.

Get ready for a hugh (patriotic or faux patriotic) media blitz.

It's going to be a bumpy ride.

10. Hey...me too!
Reminds me of a joke.

Man goes to a doctor. Complains of erectile dysfunction.

Doctor examines him and tells him that the usual treatment won't work, but there is an experimental treatment that may work. In any event, it's his only chance.

Patient asks the doc what the treatment is. Doc says it's a new surgical technique. They take the muscle from a baby elephant's trunk and implant it at the base of the patient's penis, assisting in providing an erection. The patient says, "do it"

Doc does the surgery, and six weeks later, the man decides to take out the new penis for a spin. He takes his wife to dinner.

Halfway through dinner, the man feels a familiar "fullness" in his pants. Then his zipper opens and his penis pops out of his pants, grabs a dinner roll from a basket on the table, then returns to his pants and closes his zipper.

is wife looks on in astonishment and says, with a smile on her face,"Can you do that again?"

He says, "I think so, but I don't believe I can fit another dinner roll up mu ass"

5. It is wise to expect a fight -- no miracles to be had,
just more work. Maybe a little more hope + more work.

:kick:

6. They will explode in fits of rage
when the indictments come down (tomorrow). They will attack Fitz, the media, the Dems, liberals in general and everyone else who dares disagree with them.

They are loading all of their slime machines to the hilt and warming up the engines.

Formally this time. :hide:

9. Yes, I just did--because my husband is being a cynical grump!
I also feel this!

Something just doesn't feel right.

This feeling was bothering me so much, that I sparked a conversation with my husband. I said, "Honey, so do you think tomorrow will be Fitzmas?" and he replied, "No". I said, "What do you mean, do you think it will be Thursday?".

He then said, "I think Fitz will let the time expire and nothing at all will happen. That's what I think. Democrats always make a big deal out of Republican scandals that never amount to anything. Nothing will happen."

I about threw a pillow at him. Now, my cage is rattled.

Then I read your post about the "disturbance in the force."

Perhaps it's because these thugs have escaped accountability on a plethora of heinous crimes. Maybe, at the 11th hour we're afraid to have hope. Also--I agree with the previous poster, that these thugs will not go down easily. I'm sure they'll have some evil master plan in their arsenal--that will be put into action if they are held responsible.

It's just a really maddening, unpredictable, stressful time right now.

That can definitely cause a disturbance in the force.

11. Maybe they're negotiating Cheney's resignation
Also, in the last 2 days, I've received the same dumb patriotic email (guards guarding the tomb of the unknown soldier) from two repugs.....

I think there's a plan underfoot to send the patriotic emails out to the base to galvanize.

12. Haha your sixth sense kicking in
Are you aware that the Assasination report was rush out by the UN team although officially they got until Dec 15th.

Are you aware that a Syrian Resolution is being rush through the Senate?

Are you aware that 2 Lebanon officials and one Syrian official address the Senate before the debate..... objectives to plead for sanity?

Are you aware it is happening on Fitzmas eve?

KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN.

17. Hey I listen to
Cspan

Sometime my brain explode after listening on some of the news.
Sometimes it is just like visiting freeper site.
Somestime I get to witness nice moments like Robert Bryd ( Maybe name wrong spelling) about 2000 about admiting congress make a mistake about the shame about the constituation about the 2000 blood being on congress hand.
Sometime I witness the brave lonely Democrat like Boxer trying her best to do the right thing.
To dispute the vote backing the congressman and women
To call a liar a liar to the face of Condi

14. They've been plotting new aggressions against other nations
in the backrooms. I'm not sure any of those damn plans have been put on hold. I feel the same sense of apprehension.

20. I'm just totally calm over here in Oregon.
In fact, I'm going to go to bed early, so I can wake up early and read the good news.

Keep the faith, Willy T. The numbers and the momentum are against bush, his administration, and his dwindling core of support.
