2. Sickening. Just sickening.

Think of the education, the healthcare, the alternative energy research, the disease research, etc. etc. etc. -- down the drain in Iraq.

I'm unable to express the depths of my contempt for the people who thought up this bloody fiasco.

4. I think the republican party should be outlawed.

They deserve a good old fashioned Joe McCarthy Communist Witch Hunt.

5. I don't think it disappeared.

We're supposed to think that. I believe that there are those that know exactly where it went, and they hold high positions in this country.
