Bush makes me SICK!
Seriously, I'm not kidding. I have the flu *cough* and it’s all his fault.

I've only caught the flu once before in my life, that was December of 2000. It turned into a nasty lower respiratory infection and I was sick for a month. Now that I think about it, I’ve not been sick since the flu episode in 2000, not even a sniffle... until the elections.

Since the election in Nov I've had insomnia, caught a stomach virus, been to the ER once for a reaction to Tylenol and now I have the flu.

My doctor, who I normally only see once a year for a check up, said I only seem to get sick after a presidential election. I told him, it's only been the past two that have made me sick. :grr:

1. You have
the Republican Influenza. There you go, you will hopefully feel better in 4 years. Drink plenty of fluid, mostly beer or gin and herbal suppliments. K?

5. Influenza type Repug
Yep, that was my diagnosis. 4 years and I should be right as rain.

I like your ideas for fluids much better, gin would be a kinder substitute for the Nyquil I was just about to take. :)

14. He also suggested beer!
Stay away from the Busch beer. The conservatives have been drinking it and look where it got them. LOL.

Sorry, I guess I still have a sense of humor about this.

2. Here
Have some chicken soup for your progressive soul ;-)


Take care of yourself LoneStar. I do think it possible that all the negative emotions the electoral season has wrought, can bring down your immune system.

6. My progressive soul is in an uproar.
I think it may take some powerful chicken soup to make it well. :(

3. I don't suppose the shortage of flu shots helps.
Hope you got one, and hope you get feeling better.

Lots of boring people are going to be there, talking boring talk and doing boring things.

So, what time's kick-off at your place? :7

10. If you're not boring I might even help with the dishes.
I guess my joy over the other 'party' kind of showed. :eyes:

Hey, I'm sick and on med's I don't have to show my usual decorum. :)

12. That makes two of us, sister!
Last Thursday afternoon--Inauguration Day--I started feeling tired and weak. I left work early and went home to bed, where I pretty much remained for the next three days. Somehow, it seemed entirely fitting that I got sick on the day of Mini-Me's inaugural.

13. Feeling Bushwacked?
Edited on Tue Jan-25-05 10:39 AM by Jackie97
Sometimes I feel bushwacked, bushed out, and like I have bushy hair! Heck, I'm allergic to Bush. LOL.

Then, I remember that the asshole has no right to control my life and that I'm actually enabling the sucker by getting like that.

If you're seriously having a problem, then maybe you should consider therapy. I'm not saying you're abnormal. I think we all need to see the shrink at some point in life.

I think anybody who believes most to all of what Bush says needs a shrink FOR RESEARCH. I want to find out what goes on in the mind of a person like that. LOL.

Okay, jokes aside. You might want to consider seeing a different type of doctor if you're seriously having this problem.
