What do you WANT for Christmas?

[babylonsister]

I have a big box under our tree, and other presents that I don't need, but it is Christmas.

I would ADORE a new 111th Congress that would listen to the will of the people instead of thinking we're stupid and go with the status quo until November.

Someone, WEXLER, call for IMPEACHMENT, and people get on board.

The best part would be if they actually loaded that train.

[DearAbby]

1. I want my country back. nt

[babylonsister]

8. We all do.

And we've been trying forever to do that, so what can we do?

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

10. The anticipation is killing me!

Oh...!

[Hoof Hearted]

2. The boxes under our tree are empty so far, but I want healthcare.

Neither of my kids has it, and all we can swing is catastrophic.

[babylonsister]

4. Damn. Why didn't you say something?

I am not in your boots, but I hear you, as many people do.
The threat of a debilitating disease or injury is scary.

Merry X-mas, and I hope we all can vote for someone who can get to the answer.

After the movie 'Sicko', it's time.

[Hoof Hearted]

11. Yeah, it's way past time.

Peace to you and yours, and Merry Christmas.

:hug:

[drdtroit]

3. Peace on Earth :-)

:grouphug:

[babylonsister]

6. Yea, me too! nt

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

36. Ditto.

Wouldn't it be grand!

[Manifestor_of_Light]

5. health insurance.

And building materials.

[Tektonik]

7. I want a progressive president

[babylonsister]

15. I met Dennis; he ate oatmeal and I

was in awe he was there, and that's almost a year ago. Yes, I picked someone else in case Dennis didn't make it, and I live in TX, so it doesn't matter here anyway.

I loved John Kerry, still do, but I am about to love Senator Barack Obama. First. I will enjoy any Dem over any rethug.

[Drunken Irishman]

9. I'll be selfish, I want a Nintendo DS.

[NuttyFluffers]

27. they're totally tubular! well, awesome at least.

love mine. got it as a gift and it became a teaching aid half the time. that thing help me get through upper division japanese. love that dictionary pak.

if you love adventure games you must get Phoenix Wright.

[Mythsaje]

12. A best seller.

Of course, my best novel doesn't hit paper until March, but I'd love to see "Sword and Shadow" explode.

In lieu of that, I'm pretty content with what I have now. I literally don't want anything material for Christmas. My boys will be calling me, or I'll be calling them, and my wife and I will spend the day doing pretty much what suits us.

I didn't want anything for my birthday, and I don't really want anything for Christmas.

Nothing within reach, anyway.

:)

[Akoto]

13. Peace and an end to war, but ...

I'll admit, the materialistic part of me wouldn't mind a Nintendo Wii. ;)

[K Gardner]

14. A taser. Evidently I'm going to need one. Oh, and a badge of some sort. Thanks.

[babylonsister]

21. Smartass!

:P

[The Straight Story]

16. What Do I Want?

My daughters laughter/health
Food on the table
Heat in the winter
Air in the summer
Good friends and intelligent conversation
Peace (finally without the hangover of republicans)

P.S.

Before anyone knocks me on the order of things listed...I just cannot ever list my daughter and the word republican near each other. It gives me the creeps. :)

[babylonsister]

17. I will never knock you, and

Happy Holidays to you, your wife, and your daughter.

I hope you all survive them, and 2008. I'm hoping for good things.

[undergroundpanther]

18. I want

I want everyone to be free of abuse,exploitation, manipulation,and away from control freaks,psychopaths authoritarians,narcissists and bullies.

I want EVERYONE to have everything listed in this pyramid and then some..


http://www.ruralhealth.utas.edu.au/comm-lead/leadership/Maslow-Diagram.htm

I want everyone to know what freedom is and how to be responsible for it,I want everyone to know they are not alone.

And for the wealthy and the abusive people let this quote be tattooed on their foreheads..where they will be forced to see it every time they look at themselves..

You have no more right to consume happiness without returning it, than you do to consume wealth without sharing it.

[babylonsister]

20. Thank you, love to you , and

happy holidays, undergroundpanther. Your post is great! :hug: And I'll just bet you hate hugs-too bad!

[undergroundpanther]

23. Oh yeah??!

:hug:
Right back at 'cha enhanced with the almighty furr and purr...
A hug 'o'war!!!Prrrowll..

[Diamond Dave]

19. Thank you for asking. Peace. And the BFEE enterprise in jail.

That is all we want Santa, can you make it be so?

Thank you for asking.

We want the Constitution back. We want true representatives back that represent us, the people. We want them to stand up for the oath they swore to when they took their jobs. Have they lost sight of that oath? Did they forget it?

What the F)((&^?

It is not hard?

We are so ashamed of what has happened here, we let it. Yes, we did. We boomers, us Yuppies and Yippies, we Gen X'ers, we tweens, we all just left. We lost sight somewhere along the way of what it means to be a citizen of this "democracy".

We all let it go....................

[Swamp Rat]

22. A free press that is not controlled by mega-corporations and the government

:hi: babylonsister :hug:

[babylonsister]

25. A free press - that's the biggest opstacle! We barely have one!

My sweet Swampie! You have the right idea. :hug: :hi:

[rwenos]

24. Articles of Impeachment

And then, indictments. Meanwhile, subpoenas and contempt citations issued by committees of the House of Representatives. Testimony. Exhibits. Transcripts. Grand jury investigations. Private lawsuits. Injunctions. Press conferences. Alberto Gonzalez' ticket to practice law.

Then . . . (like Lucy Van Pelt) . . . real estate. :-)

[earth mom]

26. I want Impeachment & Peace.

And yeah I know that's asking for a lot these days!

[NuttyFluffers]

28. congressional intestinal fortitude for '08, and some extra jyhad

love that card game. the jyhad, not the congressional intestinal fortitude.

[onethatcares]

29. a metal detector that works in water,

not a fancy one that goes down 300 ft, but one I can find stuff in the surf with.

the rest of the things like impeachemt/free press/a progressive country/health care and the rest, what? do you think I believe in Santa Claus?

[TransitJohn]

30. Religious holidays to not be sanctioned by my government.

Guess that puts me in the minority.

[asteroid2003QQ47]

31. Your government?

I doubt that's true but if so you ARE in the minority!
NO "Religious holidays" would work for me!
(NO religion would be even better.)

My "minority" trumps yours I bet.

[TransitJohn]

34. Well I don't care if there are religious holidays

what with the First Amendment and all, although they seem rather silly to me. But not having them forced on society by government edict would be nice. :hi:

[zippy890]

32. some optimism

been a long time on the pessimism road. Too long.

[DFW]

33. Lot of things, but on Christmas, I just want what Joni Mitchell once sang:

"Nobody calling me up for favors,
No one's future to decide."

(from "A Free Man in Paris")

[NaturalHigh]

35. I want a vintage, original, never-been opened...

vinyl of Romeo Void's Never Say Never.

[B Calm]

37. Health care for all. eom

[proud2BlibKansan]

38. I want the war over

Merry Christmas Friend!!

For you -> http://www.box.net/shared/static/olzg4pegwc.mp3

[babylonsister]

42. Me, too, proud!

Have a wonderful holiday, and thanks for that song! I shared it with my nephew who's a guitar player and loves that kind of music.

This coming year seems to be one where we can but hope damage is minimized. Sigh. It's gonna be a long one. :hug:

[riona]

39. I want many things

I want the American people to have the wisdom to elect a president who will lead us into a peaceful world. I want a president who embraces new ideas, respects other countries' cultures, and is willing to make difficult changes in the areas of healthcare and the environment. I want our president to have the ability to inspire people to accomplish these things. I want our Constitution to shine again.

[fed-up]

40. a pro bono real estate lawyer to get out of former meth house b4 it kills me/articles of IMPEACHMENT

[AnnieBW]

45. Bush. Cheney. Perp walk.

President Dodd, Biden, Richardson, Kucinich, or Edwards.

[LWolf]

46. I want my chain saw back, and an electric log splitter.

I'd like a raise, and to be able to replace this decrepit, rat-infested, falling apart old mobile home with something better.

Politically?

I want impeachment, and I want HR 676.

[mmonk]

47. The Constitution and Bill of Rights. That's my Christmas wish.

I have signed Wexler's petition though I have reservations about him.

[AlCzervik]

48. Comfort to all the du'ers that have lost loved ones this year.

it's been a tough year here for many of them so i wish them peace and happiness.

[applegrove]

49. Peace on earth for all mankind.
