1. its not the people

its the damn Medias Fault..

..
they give very little air time to the real issues here..its like a fairy tale for Bush.....

how often do we hear anti bush on shows? Very little and when we do the host always cuts them off and lets the right wing nut keep going on and on....

Its even getting like that on C-Span....some hosts cut the Democrat callers off and let the Republican callers ramble on and on....

I know its how we get our news .....but what else can WE do to get our message out?

2. just spoke to my coworker at the next desk

She is thrilled that Arnold won because "it's so funny and will really stick it to Ted Kennedy!" I asked her what about the loss of jobs in CA, the budget problems, what's Arnold's big plan, she says "I don't know about any of that, I guess I just won't move to CA, then." Americans have retreated into a fantasy world, like a big soap opera or reality TV show, no sense of responsibility, no plans for America's future.

3. I somewhat agree. I'm very depressed today about all of this,

YET AGAIN! And I'm wondering if WE aren't the ones living in 'never never land' :( It just seems that WE are foreigners in our own land. WE are the bad ones, the wrong ones, etc. portrayed by what seems to be the MAJORITY these days. THAT IS DEPRESSING AS HELL!

I want to say to hell with it and hide in a cave somewhere till I die, but then a vision of the minority of Africans enslaved fighting for their freedoms and their underground railroad for freedom springs to mind.

In times like these, those who are for humanity go underground and use the cover of night to offer the rare fountains of hope admist the shambles and disgrace of the tumultuous and insane times we sometimes find ourselves locked within.

We need a key to unlock the door that is daily being laiden with yet more deadbolts, locks and chains.

I'm saddened beyond belief and horrified that this nation would ever elect someone such as ahhhhnuld. Maybe we deserve what we are getting if, as a country, we are no more mature than electing someone such as this to a public office.

Maybe WE are the ones who are deceived into believing that there is hope and that WE can make a difference and that people here want what is good, honest, decent and right for all living things. :cry:
