Share your survival story: How did you survive the 12 year Republican congressional nightmare?
For me, it was a lot of Prilosec for my heartburn.

3. My son who I thought was too young to remember said the other day
something along the lines of, it sure was good during the Clinton years and hopes we can go back to the same in the near future.

4. DU of course.
Plus I got serious about working at the local level to elect Democrats to office and contributing as much money as I could afford to Democratic candidates.

Finally, I rediscovered my inner child of the sixties and put my feet on the street.

Now let's get to work on 08.

5. Let's see...
12 years ago was 1994... I was in 7th grade (lol). I survived by a little ignorance (when I was younger), and in the past 6 or 7 years by watching The Daily Show, Keith Olbermann, and (somewhat) patiently waiting for this day to come! :bounce:

7. I moved to Canada.
No, really. I moved to Canada. Moved back to the States in 2003.

But I didn't get over the culture shock until today. :D
