If Andrea is THAT upset, then something must've happened that I need to read ... Oh, it's this, from Suzanne: > Am I scared shitless living 30 minutes away from ground zero - is it > cold in winter in the north?! What exactly is the point of living scared shitless?? If you're doing that, "THEY" have already won. I live 30 minutes and work 20 minutes from the "other" ground zero, the Pentagon. I continue to live my life as I always have, which is to say that, among the humdrum of life's regular little details, I'm sad to know I will probably witness a nuclear winter in my lifetime. That's exactly why I object to Bush's plan to start what may very well become the LAST war. I further object to the way Bush, et al, have pushed their desire for war to the forefront of political discussion, which had has the intended effect of allowing them to slide under the radar their ultra- conservative nominations for judgeships and systematic actions designed to eventually undermine reproductive choice. "Compassionate conservatism" my ass. Bush is now repaying all the far- right wing lunatics who helped him get into office, and the REALLY fucked up thing about it is that he's tapping into ALL of our accounts to do so. We will all pay a very steep price if we do not stop him, right now. > I am sure this one will be buried in the much speaking of the second > tier peacocks that strut along the pages here I'll admit it: I am one. And I'm proud of it. Lori
