Sometimes I just want to go outside and do a primal scream
Just to get the tension of this madness out and feel like I am still alive .

I can't take anymore politics or the state this country is in . With all this horror going on now some $5000 per hour call girl is the center of the news , should we really care about her as if we don;t already have enough crap to deal with . So now all you need to become rich and famous is have sex with someone in the government and get paid for it , man this is some sick shit and it really does expose just how insane the american people are .

But be damned if you were a soldier in Iraq and got both legs blown off , this will not be in the news and the massess won't give a damn . Find yourself without a job and in the streets again tough luck , move on .

If your entire life is washed away in NOLA , to bad move on .

What a fucked up country and people wonder why this is .

1. Go ahead and scream. You might feel better
And scream one for me, too.
I hear you :)

3. In this day in age, I bet you could go out to a crowded street...
scream your brains out and get one of two reactions 1) none at all or 2) an applause.

#1 is more disturbing.

12. You're Forgetting One
ARRESTED For Disturbing The Peace

How dare you scream out loud, and disturb all the little sheepies at home watching Entertainment Tonight.

5. It's like giving the people a circus to distract them from the problems.
If I talk to my wife or mother-in-law about the war or the economy I get a screwed up look but talk about Spitzer and his whore and they know every detail.

9. the last time I remember getting "paid"
was the little $600 check that we got back in '01, that I later got a 1099c for and had to file with my state taxes, pretty much negating any benefit from it. That's pretty cheap for taking it up the ass dry for the next 7 years. :(

I suppose their "economic stimulus" checks are the next installment? wonder what that's gonna cost us. :(

10. Yes , I got that so called gift of $300 and then the 1099 came
along and taxed me , it managed at the time to push me right into the next tax bracket and cost me more than the $300 gift so I lost . The same thing will happen this time , not that I will get the refund , i won't .

11. that's exactly what happened to us
it pushed us up into the next bracket and we came out upside down on the deal. I'm thinking about sending the next one back to them....

8. "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore"?
Could be motivating... :shrug: (Can you tell I'm right in the middle of watching this movie?)
