2. funny you should say that
I just got back from the doctors office. While in the waiting room I started chatting with this lady about yesterday. She said she felt so good today, I had to agree. I think I feel better than I have in years.

3. I still don't trust the thugs...
They have powerful allies in the wrong places.

6. Oh, I don't trust them either!
And we should not become complacent! Time to roll up our sleeves, not rest on our laurels.

I'm talking about the overall tone of "we the people". The Freepers are melting down, but the rest of us are breathing just a tad easier.

9. No doubt about that...
Watching CNN this morning, I thought the commentators' smiles were untypically gleaming. It didn't look fke, either. :D

5. Not to sound like a LIHOPer...
But part of me, on an emotional basis, feels that Bush will try anything to take back Congress and reassert his legacy. He managed to take down a Democratic-controlled Senate in the 2002 midterms because of 9/11.

8. Not until * & Cheney are in jail for all those crimes they've committed
in the last 6 years. Along with a good portion of the repub party. They are still very dangerous people.

11. Does this mean
I won't be waking up nights in a cold sweat and worrying about my government? That would be a plus.

12. Never stop worrying completely...
But I would hope recent developments stave off the cold sweats for a while!

13. I feel it.
I feel like I don't have to worry about a pre-emptive war with Iran or North Korea now.

Social Security is also safe now.
