1. This just makes me ill.

I began law school the year Bush was "selected." There was such a disparity between what we were being taught ... and what transpired over the next four years.

It made one wonder if one could put certain answers down on a test; there really was no accountability (and no restrictions) for those in power, despite what we were required to put down on a test in order to pass it. They routinely broke both domestic and international law in the most vile ways.

The last eight years really have taken my breath away.

With Obama's election, there's a glimmer of hope - just a glimmer - within me.

2. I'd like her answer to this

But only after she's been sworn to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

6. The last 8 years has done so much damage to this country...

I hear what you are saying. I hope we can climb out of this mess as one country.. all in one piece.

4. They'll torture, but they won't lie and deny it?

at least they draw the line on morals somewhere.

:shrug:

5. She's never had a problem telling big lies before. I wonder what

has changed that?

8. Then she smiled vivaciously as she

excused herself because she had to get to the Ferragamo sale.

9. I guess that is something
