The Problem With Hope, Is That You Are Allowed To Believe, And To Dream... |
|
And when the reality of today's politics smacks you, once again, square in the head...
Hope dissipates...
And the change you believed in, is dwarfed by the change in you pocket.
:banghead:
I'm majorly discouraged... Can ya tell?

4. How's that Democratic majority been workin' out for ya? |

This year, the good for nothing Congress has made me believe what I once thought unbelievable. Ralph Nader was right - there isn't a bit of difference between Democrats and Republicans.

Don't you think it's about time that we admit that the Republicans are not the only bad guys here? That neither side is representing us. I don't know if you saw this post or not but I think it's one of the most profound posts I've ever seen on DU. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x7181782
