Do you find yourself saying I told you so more and more these days? |
|
Seems like people everywhere are shaking their heads, the monkeyboy's* numbers are in the toilet. I don't know how many times watching the news I talk back to the tv. Just last night they were talking openly about civil war in Iraq, I told my wife shit we've been talking about that for two years, and that's just one example.

Except that no one would listen. Anyone who I could say that to would just flat out deny that there is anything wrong with the way Georgie's running the country (into the ground). If there's any problems, well, pick your conservative boogeyman

2. I become quite a pain to my wife |
|
I get rather loud and cuss at the TV often, especially if he is on lying about whatever he is talking about. It does me good, but it is distracting to her. I'm trying to cut back.

13. My wife and I agree about 99% on politics |
|
and about 150% on bush, she just hates it when I loudly shout and cuss at an inanimate object.

14. Now I'm even more certain they need to get together. |
|
We're pretty much the same way except she thinks there's nothing we can do about the screwing we're taking at the moment - so my TV tirades just make her mad.

She tells me she's worried about me, but there's no way I can watch this crap without boiling over.

Tonight we are watching the news, bush's face comes on the screen and my wife starts "talking" to the TV. No profanity, no screaming and hollering but she gave him a good talking too. She wasn't mimicking me. I had to get up and leave the house for a good chuckle.

4. I am not above the occasional 'I told you so'. |
|
But I usually phrase it as, "Hey, remember when I said that Saddam was going to give us a big international black eye by making sure there'd be nothing to find?"
or
"Remember when you thought I was nuts to believe that the Republicans would try to take over the judicial branch?"
or
"Remember how I mentioned there would be a big purge of the CIA so they could have info they wanted?"
and I can't wait for;
"How about that time I said that we had to invade Iran/Venezuela to control our reserve currency status?"

5. Yes, But Nobody Remembers.... |
|
...that years ago I "predicted" all this stuff would happen... B*sh is following in hitler's footsteps so it's no surprise we are losing our freedoms while The Constitution is being trashed. hitler's "Enabling Act" = b*sh's "Patriot Acts". B*sh needed a "Reichstag Fire" so the Twin Towers burned....

7. You know what scares me about this? |
|
While people are shaking their head at the Executive Branch, the Legislature is ramming it up our backsides.
To answer your question..Yes, I definitely am.

12. I don't even go there with gas prices. Just remind them of a few things: |
|
Peace isn't Pretty and Freedom isn't Free.
Or better yet:
At least no planes have flown into buildings since George took over.
And another:
At least George restored dignity to the White House.
I say these things because they are all the reasons why the sheeple voted for not so curious george and using their own words is better than saying I told you so.
Of course you could always remind the dumbasses that the pres and his veep are both long time oil men and why should they be surprised that the oil industry is experiencing record profits under their reign.

17. Yes, every time I get gas, if someone else is buying some, I make |

a point of saying something like "that'll teach us to vote for an oil boy".

19. I thought about that., too. |

My neighbor across the street started talking about how much it cost her to fill her Ford. She is also a Bush voting repub. Too bad I didn't say that you voted for this, now live with it.

20. I'm not so sure one should watch T.V. |
|
Most of the time it is filled with lies, so I remain pretty conceptually skeptical. I don't think they are telling the truth in any of these media outlets.
