I don't think I'm any more paranoid than the next American but I'm thinking about buying a gun, an RV and renting a storage space...something I hadn't thought of until Bush Inc. took this country down the path of destruction.
Since up has become down and black turned into white, since not all votes are equal or equally counted, since huge deficits, corporate outsourcing and offshoring, this administration pissing off the rest of the world, lessoning the tax burdens on the wealthiest and corporations while placing it squarely on the backs of the middle classes, higher energy prices, fees (don't call them taxes) raised across the board, no affordable buy in health care system in place, politicians like Arnold and George who lie and deceive to reward their "special interests" to the detriment of real American citizens, since smart women are in denial about what is really happening to other women and families under this administration and Republicans and we can't get no satisfaction from our supposed leaders.
I don't trust that this economy is going to "get better". I don't trust the stock market. I'm concerned that our debts are held in large part by China and Japan. I'm concerned that social security will be mangled as badly as the intelligence reform has been. I hate the prevailing culture rewarding those who are winning with whatever it takes, even if it's lies and deceit. I hate that women, children and future generations are and will be the ones who really suffer under a lawless kind of macho behavior with no public recriminations or legal discipline. I've had it with a media that just takes steno and teleprompts and covers the tracks of intentional outers of CIA agents or fronts a partisan opinion while being paid as a news journalist.
I'm not looking forward to any Rapture...they can take those Fundies and Neocons first please.
I've had it. Get me a gun, an RV and I'm outta here.

3. it wasn't too hard to predict the result of a "conservative America" |
|
it is indeed quite sickening and as long as republicans control the White House, Congress, the media, the Supreme Court and voting, we do not stand a chance. I doubt nothing short of a revolution could save us now.
