I've HAD IT.

[burythehatchet]

I'm sure that most of us get to a point from time to time when the anger just wells up and flows over our better judgment. This night is one of those times for me. Irrespective of the brownshirts that the asshole-in-chief has who are reading this, I cannot stand this pipg's voice, face, or even the thought of him.

I'm a uniter not a divider
I'm a war president
I'm a peace president
I'm the education president

You are NONE of these George, you are a decrepit layer of scum. You have no soul and you have no sense. You are responible for the misery that millions of people are suffering RIGHT NOW. You have made people hate each other. You have killed hundreds of thousands of innocent souls. You have created countless widows and orphans. And worst of all George, you aren't even done yet. I pray for the day you disappear from this earth and I honestly believe your empty husk of a soul will forever be buried in an eternal grave. In my religion we believe that every soul returns to the earth but in your case I pray to God that never ever happens. You have earned your rightful place in the bottom-most pit of hell. You roommates will be Hitler and Mussolini and Rove and Cheney.

I feel like you have beaten me George because you have brought me to a place where I do not wish to be. I have tried for many years to cultivate a vision of love, peace and harmony. I have lost because when it comes to you I realize I have lost all of those ideals.

I HATE YOU FOR WHAT I HAVE BECOME.

1. Great Post!

I can't add much. You said it all.

[catmother]

4. yes. you said it all.

[Ava]

7. uniter not a divider

I actually think Bush was right when he said "I'm a uniter, not a divider." He has united Americans to bring down him and his administration.

[CoolOnion]

15. He's united the whole world against him

We can have a world-wide celebration the day he leaves office (in handcuffs, I hope).

[MadisonProgressive]

16. Yes!

He could prove to be the single most uniter the world has ever seen!

[newyawker99]

45. Hi Ava!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[Katherine Brengle]

2. we all need to vent sometimes, it doesn't mean they have won....... >>

I do it too, scream and yell and use the choicest words I can come up with and then I move on.

If anger overwhelms you, accept it and release it. We are all succeptible.

The difference between us and them is that they act out of their anger, we use our anger to fuel our passion to do better.

Just remember that.

(Besides, it's Saturday night--the perfect time to rant a little and get it out.)

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

If It Weren't For Him, I Would Never Have Been Made Aware As To The Truth.

His criminal deeds, starting with the election theft 00, is what got my brain finally awakened to how corrupt and deceitful politics really is. Ever since, I now question everything and am exponentially more educated to truth and facts than the everyday american, in large part because of DU. But I would've never known better, I would've never found this place, I would've never been so dedicated to question the media and our government, had it not been for King George. What I have become now is a fighter, a true patriot, a true intellect and a true believer in a brighter future once enough of us become enlightened to the truth that we put a stop to his cabal.

I don't hate him for doing that to me. I thank him. But I bet ya he hates us by the time we're done! :evilgrin:

[CJCRANE]

3. Hey, take a break

don't be too hard on yourself.

[CTyankee]

5. Oh, I have been there and I know so well

what you are going through. Please do not despair. Many of us feel the same way and we are with you. We simply must get through this slough of despond and reach for our next opportunity.

It is a bad winter. Tho it is not so cold, the warmth of it is ominous as we know what it means. The hour is late for global warming as with so much else.

We have a government totally out of control and it is maddening. But what can we do except organize and communicate?

Stay in the fight, even when you feel you can't. You can. We will help. Do not despair and write often!

[katinmn]

6. and don't forget to add Rumsfeld to the pit

him and his "Long War" meme.

http://www.defenselink.mil/transcripts/2006/tr20060201-12403.html

[MadisonProgressive]

10. Hi Kat

Yes, I read that and it is disturbing, but yet, not at all surprising.

[katinmn]

21. Hi MadisonP. Nope, not surprising at all

I believe Rumsfeld is a mad man, a very evil one.

[madokie]

8. I can honestly say before * trash came along I never felt hate.

[burythehatchet]

11. I believe the measure of a person is how much he gives to

the world in terms of love and compassion. By that measure that little piss-ant is in a negative universe by himself.

[marions ghost]

37. I have encountered hate before...

that's why this particular hijacking of our government came as no big surprise.

But I still resent the fact that these extremists and their diabolical agenda have invaded my life to this degree.

Those who are angry have resolved not to be victims.

[SammyWinstonJack]

9. He can return as a bottom feeder. He can keep

coming back as a bottom feeder until he gets it right. That should take many tries.


"I HATE YOU WHAT I HAVE BECOME" I can relate too that.

[CoolOnion]

12. Bush owes us money

After he's impeached, indicted, resigned, or whenever/however his term of office expires, the nation should file a class action suit against him for pain and suffering.

[H2O Man]

13. Perhaps

you would enjoy reading Ecclesiates 3:1-8 ......

[burythehatchet]

17. Mr. Waterman, you are a man whom I have come to respect

greatly. And I will read that passage. Thank you.

[burythehatchet]

24. turn..turn..turn......perfect!

Ecclesiastes
Chapter 3
1
There is an appointed time for everything, and a time for every affair under the heavens.
2
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to uproot the plant.
3
A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to tear down, and a time to build.
4
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance.
5
A time to scatter stones, and a time to gather them; a time to embrace, and a time to be far from embraces.
6
A time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away.
7
A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to be silent, and a time to speak.
8
A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
9
What advantage has the worker from his toil?
10
I have considered the task which God has appointed for men to be busied about.
11
He has made everything appropriate to its time, and has put the timeless into their hearts, without men's ever discovering, from beginning to end, the work which God has done.
12
I recognized that there is nothing better than to be glad and to do well during life.
13
For every man, moreover, to eat and drink and enjoy the fruit of all his labor is a gift of God.
14
I recognized that whatever God does will endure forever; there is no adding to it, or taking from it. Thus has God done that he may be revered.
15
1 What now is has already been; what is to be, already is; and God restores what would otherwise be displaced.
16
And still under the sun in the judgment place I saw wickedness, and in the seat of justice, iniquity.
17
And I said to myself, both the just and the wicked God will judge, since there is a time for every affair and on every work a judgment.
18
I said to myself: As for the children of men, it is God's way of testing them and of showing that they are in themselves like beasts.
19
For the lot of man and of beast is one lot; the one dies as well as the other. Both have the same life-breath, and man has no advantage over the beast; but all is vanity.
20
Both go to the same place; both were made from the dust, and to the dust they both return.
21
Who knows if the life-breath of the children of men goes upward and the life-breath of beasts goes earthward?
22
And I saw that there is nothing better for a man than to rejoice in his work; for this is his lot. Who will let him see what is to come after him?

It let's us know that others have felt the same way.

38. I was looking for a phrase

"peace, peace" but there is no peace, which led me to Jeremiah 6:14 which seemed so apt, but I interspersed comments:

[Frustratedlady]

14. You have put into words in cyberspace...

what many of us say to ourselves in our minds.

"I HATE YOU FOR WHAT I HAVE BECOME."

Pretty frustrating, isn't it? How so few can make so many miserable.

The day will come when all things will be put to right. Truth must win out and the day after that happens, we shall return to living our lives as we did six years ago. We have to believe or we die.

Peace, my friend.

[EFerrari]

22. I know. But, just for now, do now.

I'm reminding myself, too.

[kurth]

19. It's ok to be angry - Jesus was:

"He went into the synagogue, and a man with a shriveled hand was there. Some of them were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, so they watched him closely to see if he would heal him on the Sabbath… He looked around at them in anger and, deeply distressed at their stubborn hearts, said to the man, 'Stretch out your hand.' He stretched it out, and his hand was completely restored." - Mark 3:1-2, 5

"Jesus entered the temple area and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. 'It is written,' he said to them, 'My house will be called a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of robbers.' The blind and the lame came to him at the temple, and he healed them." - Matthew 21:12-14

27. Remember the walls of jericho falling down

Everything vibrates in the universe, everything has a vibrational frequency, the higher the frequency the more "subtle" matter becomes.

Remember the walls of jericho falling down, It seems the ancients knew more about the manipulation of matter through sound "resonance".

This is basically something of what comes to mind when appreciating the nature of sound resonance and its application with mantra.

Sound resonance is a powerful tool in the transformation of all matter, atomic vibrational frequencies are manipulated with sound resonance, sound resonance is made much more effective with specific words"mantras", the ancients knew this with much more profundity than the modern world can ever imagine...

http://www.kwanumzen.com/

Clear Mind, Clear Mind, Clear Mind -- Don't Know

This mantra is usually suggested to beginners in conjunction with a breathing exercise. Breathe in to a count of 3, saying "clear mind" at each count and breathe out to a count of 7 saying 'dooooonnn't knnnnooooooow' just once for the whole 7 count. The count may vary with the individual, but the exhalation should be more than twice as long as the inhalation.

This is generally the first technique taught in our School.

Kwan Seum Bosal

This is the Korean name for the bodhisattva of compassion, Avalokitesvara. This mantra is commonly suggested for people whose minds cannot be quiet one minute or who cannot concentrate for very long. Because it is short it can be repeated over and over (usually with a set of beads for counting). The usual recommendation is for 3000 to 10000 a day for someone who really wants to clear their mind of a particular problem. It is also used on a daily basis by many people as part of their sitting meditation technique.

[kentuck]

28. Thank you for being in touch with Krsna, the Spirit.....

I question myself whether George Bush and friends have created this "evil" or if we have become a self-fulfilling prophecy of our own definitions? What you say comes from very deep in the soul. And because of that, I believe it to be true in its instincts. We cannot say that if we did not talk about it, it would not exist. It woud still be there but unchallenged. We must search for peace in the turmoil that has been created. If we lose our center, we lose the game.

[FreedomAngel82]

29. I know how you feel

:hug: Families and friends fighting, on various message boards etc. It all gets to you.

[stickdog]

30. Maybe that's just how BushCo WANTS you to feel.

[ClayZ]

32. Oh, I know how you feel!

I told my husband the same thing today after watching "Bravery" http://ptc.cf.huffingtonpost.com/animations/bravery.html


I hate bu&h and cheney for making me hate them.

We have spent most of our adult lives making flutes for a living. We are the epitome of Peace and Love.
We preached it and we lived it, we taught our children well. And then came the BFEE. I feel like I have been swallowed by an evil dragon!

I sincerely hope the day comes that they truly know what they have done to the world. And have to make amends.

"Forgiving" is the best lesson I have learned in this life, but I have not learned it well enough to use on them.

Maybe... We win in the end because of how we lived our lives.

[burythehatchet]

34. As some others have said here

there is a time for everything, including anger. This goes against my philosophy (Buddhist/Hindu) but since I have not attained my goal of complete detachment, I rely on the principle of Dharma - by acting upon my belief that what is happening is wrong from a moral standpoint, I am fulfilling my mission. Maybe its a false justification, but that is the reason I meditate on this issue.

[hfojvt]

39. too many here, and probably myself too at times

give him far too much credit. We had psychotic murders and child abusers and other hate crimes before Bush became President. We had and will continue to have corporations and people exploiting the environment and other people in the name of profit. Almost none of what Bush has done could have been done without the help of Republicans in Congress and the Republican noise machine. CBS news, for example, ran "countdown to war" for months before the invasion of Iraq, making it seem as inevitable as Bush wanted it to look. And then there was Ralph Nader, the swing vote stealer and Democrat basher, and SCOTUS who annointed Bush. And on and on. As Douglas Adams wrote "The primary job of the President is not to wield power, but to draw attention away from it." We focus on Bush and forget the evil corporate bastids that he serves.

41. LOVE the Khalil Gibran quote on your website

he is one of my favorite poets. There's another poem that seems to resonate in these times - The Happy Warrior by Wordsworth

[ClayZ]

42. And this, of Critical Mass.

The Weight of a Snowflake

"Tell me the weight of a snowflake," a coalmouse asked a wild dove.

"Nothing more than nothing," the dove answered.

"In that case I must tell you a marvelous story," the coalmouse said. "I sat on a fir branch close to the trunk when it began to snow. Not heavily, not in a raging blizzard. No, just like in a dream, without any violence at all. Since I didn't have anything better to do, I counted the snowflakes settling on the twigs and needles of my branch. Their number was exactly 3,471,952. When the next snowflake dropped onto the branch--nothing more than nothing -- as you say -- the branch broke off."

Having said that, the coalmouse ran away.

The dove, since Noah's time an authority on peace, thought about the story for a while. Finally, she said to herself, "Perhaps there is only one person's voice lacking for peace to come to the world." - Source unknown

33. I think the tide is turning, though--the Emperor has no clothes

He has gone from his 00 debate promise to JAWBONE OPEC (remember how he said that?) to OPEN THE SPIGOTS to whining that we are ADDICTED TO OIL.

Guess that jawbone belonged to a real ASS, eh?????

[in_cog_ni_to]

35. Oh, how I can relate.

There are days I have thoughts I never thought I could or would have, EVER. Then I ask myself, "how on earth did you become this person?" The hatred I feel for that man knows no bounds. The thoughts I have about him are unspeakable. I am not the person I use to be. I am not me anymore because of that man. I won't stop fighting the rat bastards though. This is MY country and they can't have it!

[Gregorian]

36. We are together.

Thank you so much for your post. Those same thoughts go through my head day after day. You said it so very well. Sharp. True.

And thank you for posting Ecclesiates. I have been lazy. And lost and hurt. I keep forgeting there is help and hope. It all feels so hopeless. Especially for those of us who find themselves in republican territory. I am a fish out of water in my new home. I'm praying that I can leave soon.

It just feels like we've had it. I'm so glad I know all of you good people here.

BTH, I know exactly how you feel! :hug: In my "previous life" I refused to even USE the word "hate" let alone feel it and shout it from the rooftops! But I HATE that poor excuse of a human being! He set out to destroy all that is good and beautiful about this country and, because many refuse to pay attention (or they can't because they are too busy trying to keep their heads above water!) he has come very close to "Mission Accomplished". Now THOSE, the ones that KNOW but refuse to do anything, are the unpatriotic SOB's who this whole mess belongs to. May they ALL rot in Hell!

46. I ranted and raved when Nixon was in office.

I wondered then how this country could have allowed a man like him to become president. I knew what he was before he became president, and of course my fears were realized. I thought at the time that things couldn't possibly ever get worse.

I was wrong.

Then came Reagan. This time, it wasn't the dottering old fool I feared, as much as it was the evil scum propping him up. But the results were just as horrible. I couldn't imagine things becoming worse for our country. I swore profusely every time I saw him, Meese, Baker or any of his gang of thieves on television. I just knew it was impossible for things to get any worse, and lived for the day that he would have to answer for his crimes.

Again, I was wrong.

George W. Bush and his cabal have made Nixon and Reagan look like amatuers. The crimes that he has perpetrated on mankind can only be described as astoundingly horrific. He deinitely belongs in the same class as Hitler, Lenin, Stalin, and a few banana republic dictators.

I will not advocate violence against Bush, but if he were to die a horrible death suddenly, I would surely dance a jig and get drunk for a week in celebration. This time I AM sure that the country will never have a man as evil as Bush occupying the White House. And I am sure that he is the man that Nostrodamus wrote about.
