Positive news, remarkable from me
I am cynical and distrustful and ironic and all those things. Most of my postings tend towards disasters and negative things. So, this may come as a suprise but I am really happy today about something simple. A client told me yesterday that she and her husband have come to the conclusion that Mr.bush needs to be impeached and removed from office, that he is a danger to us all.

These people think of themselves as independents, moderate thinkers. I think of them as John Q. Public, not very informed, buying into the lies, not wanting to look at facts but believe what people say rather than their actions. The next step, I informed them, is to vote Dem in Nov, to try to get some of the power out of the madmens hands. They agreed that though they do not want to vote a party line, this is the only way to make it possible.

So, I am happy today because this tells me that the polls are right. The tide has turned. A corner is passed. People are waking up FINALLY! Yes, many have died, much has been injured, it will take generations to heal from the damage mrbushandhisevilminions have caused, but I have a bit of hope.

2. Thanks M.R.
little stuff, but peoples eyes are opening. They said they felt they had to stand by him, but he has lied so much they can't believe anything he has to say. The final straw was his oking the V.Plame leak.
