I really didn't think I could get any angrier than I was on Saturday,

[PCIntern]

but Palin managed to get me there. We are asymptotically approaching Absolute Zero in terms of "the Discussion" in this country and I think we've irretrievably fallen into a black hole - that the gravity of the disaster which we have created is greater than any force of goodness or righteousness which might propel us out. Oklahoma City and September 11, 2001 were the last vestiges of keeping the Republic alive, but the reaction of the far right to Katrina and to this latest outrage should convince even the greatest skeptic that there is no chance of any common ground.

Hypocritical Sick fucks are dominating the airwaves and most of the reasonable folk, smile, shake their collective heads, and say, "come on...no one's gonna buy this BS." Yeah? Tell President Dukakis all about it...

Economic Royalty.

3. K&R. I've been so angry I've broken chunks off my capped teeth due to

clenching/grinding. I'm not making that up, I literally woke up on two nights this week so far with loose chunks of porcelain in my mouth from my back capped molars. Guess it's time to go back to one of your colleagues, LOL.

4. what are you telling yourself? You seem to be nursing the anger.

"I could not get to sleep. While I lay in that quiet front bedroom, with the distant street lamp throwing a reassuring glow through the curtained window, I began to think of the viciousness of people who would bomb my home. I could feel the anger rising when I realized that my wife and baby could have been killed. I thought about the city commissioners and all the statements that they had made about me and the Negro generally. I was once more on the verge of corroding hatred. And once more, I caught myself and said: 'You must not allow yourself to become bitter.'

I tried to put myself in the place of the three commissioners. I said to myself these men are not bad men. They are misguided. They have fine reputations in the community. In their dealings with hith people they are respectable and gentlemanly. They probably think they are right in their methods of dealing with Negroes. They say the things they say about us and treat us as they do because they have been taught these things...." "Stride toward Freedom" Martin Luther King pp 138-39

6. You betcha...

you better be angry...you better get up out of your seat and go to the window and yell "I'm mad as Hell, and I'mnotgonnatakeitanymore."

I'm sure no one was angry after Eddy Rendell and others of his ilk told the populus to just accept that Gore was going to go down to defeat....that there's nothing anyone can do about getting a black guy elected President, and that if nominated, he'll lose...that if you're gonna get violated, that you just have to lie there and enjoy it.

No thanks...not me...not anymore. They want to go around and blow people's heads off and I shouldn't get angry? I'm the wrong guy for that...

7. might that be what the shooter was thinking?

"I am mad as hell and I am not gonna take it any more"

What else are you gonna do with that anger? Get high blood pressure? Take it out on a root canal patient?

[PCIntern]

8. No...

I'm gonna pound a keyboard and in addition, talk to people and let them know that this is no longer one sick joke: that lives are on the line here and that this country is at a real turning point...and if they don't want to believe that, it's at their peril. I however, am gong down as the loudmouth which I can easily be. I'm sorry if that offends you.


And I don't do windows or root canals...

5. I agree...Fucking AM radio...1920's technology is bringing the country down !!!!

9. she is inflexible in her hatred and ignorance. not a whiff of reflection or insight.

10. With what happened on Saturday, that black hole has turned into a supernova.
