Do I need a shrink?
Cuz the last eight years have left me with fantasies of beating the snot out of every republican I encounter. I've decided they're not simply misguided people, they're a fucking diseased breed.

2. we must have patience with the mentally challenged..
people must not be beaten simply because they cannot think logically or are without empathy. Remember, these people live in fear every single day.

6. No, but most of the Republicans in the media spotlight do.
Your thoughts about Republicans are ridiculously tame compared to mine.

8. You'd have to be completely disassociated...
Edited on Sat Jul-12-08 06:58 PM by TwoSparkles
...from your body--to not be enraged.

Republicans--led by Phil Gramm--are wanting us to believe that responding to vile behavior with anger and outrage--is
somehow dysfunctional.

Man, these types are total abusers. Do they watch hundreds of hours of the Lifetime Channel to learn how to be
expert abusers and sociopaths?

What do abusers do? They behave outrageously and treat everyone like objects. Then, when the objects start having
feelings and defining the abusers actions as outrageous--the abuser steps in to make the victim feel like a defective
for being angry or upset.

They're attempting to beat back their victims and make us all assume the fetal position, in the corner of the room.

Being saddened by corrupt, selfish criminals--is now "whining." Being outraged and disgusted by the disease these
ingrates has spread throughout our democracy is now the ramblings of people who are "depressed."

It's all part of the plan to position strong, powerful and revolutionary people as defectives.

For every ounce of abuse they dish out, we must hit back with ten pounds of "I will not take this anymore!"

9. If you do then maybe we can get a group discount?
Of course I call those fantasies my "happy place", it's a coping strategy, whenever I'm particularly enraged by some annoyingly idiotic puke-like douchebaggery, I just picture myself giving them a good old fashioned boot party and then I feel much better:)

10. I dont think I am big enough to beat the snot
out of most of these knuckle draggin pukes...5'9" 200 lbs isn't enough to kick bubba driving a V8 diesel's ass (in most cases) but the idea of doing so sounds like a lot of fun

11. Violence is NEVER the answer. Haven't the rethugs proven that beyond a shadow of a doubt?
But I understand your frustration, believe me.

12. And what if your shrink turned out to be a republican?
And who says you can't start a sentence with and? And who says I give a flying floo-floo? And if I have to try and untwist this pretzel in my head just one more time because of some idiot repugnantcan, I might have to be locked up. No, I'm series - I'm dead series. The fundies (nazis) think they can go around getting divorced and eating shellfish and stuff. But nooooooooooooooh, I can't have a loving caring relationship with whoever. I'm not paranoid or anything but I saw my next door neighbor carrying A BOX TURTLE into the house. What are they THINKING?

14. Me too, I'm cranky, irritated, snippy, I never miss a moment to
snap a Repuke crap. I've turn off my Repuke friends e-mail so they can't send me RW propaganda. Maybe we should all compose a "Dear Abby " letter she can publish, better yet call Dr. Phil so we can KTS out of him. :evilgrin: I get even more irritated when I think just what the Republicans have done to this country.

15. Fantasies are good
I have them all the time. When I start acting out on them, then I know I've gone over the edge.

We just have to win in NOvember. Then we won't need our kicking ass fantasies anymore (she said hopefully.)

19. Hell no you don't need a shrink. Why does one need a shrink for thinking correctly these days.
I mean you if you watch any TV, they've got pills for everything, thinking correctly must be included in there somewhere.
