I have lost my mind!
I cannot watch "West Wing" anymore without crying. It's not that the President's daughter is missing, it's that these fictional people seem so decent and so concerned about democracy and this Country, that I want them to be real...and they are not. How bad can it get that you want to crawl into a weekly TV series to find America???

1. I felt that same way all of last season
Josiah Bartlett is MY president! At least for one night a week.

2. Don't worry Raven,
I heard that John Goodman is joining the cast as the Speaker of the House. He represents the opposition party, so maybe that will inject a little more meaness.

3. I feel that way too
Are you on any Anti-Depressents? I'm on Paxil 37.5. I watch football and remember that there's no "I" in team. That gives me a reminder in my liberal beliefs and how I can explain it to the sheeple when I need too.

5. Whew!
For a moment, I thought Will had either started a new thread or was banished to his room.

6. sweetness, you haven't lost your mind

7. But we have hope
and in our small ways, legions are working toward recapturing the America you love, the one filled with and governed by decent people.

And this time, we'll know with a certainty what kind of hate lurks under the surface.
