We are told to be patient .
The thing about this that I feel disturbs me the most is that from the beginning many knew bush stole the 2000 elections or at least suspected this was the case . In 2003 bush launched his attack on Iraq which was against the ideals and morals or many americans and people around the globe , we protested and tried to stop this ugly war we knew was fail yet bush went ahead with his murderous plan .

2002 was the test ground for electronic voter theft .

In 2004 bush once again stole the elections and as a bonus got his mandate and the war got worse and the troops were always under funded and without proper equipment . We lost most of the constitution as bush called it a god damn piece of paper .

Move to 2006 as the 04 to 06 period only rendened and spread the mass death . Dems got in with their hearings .

My point is as Cindy Sheeham and many others who are told to be patient I have to ask just how patient all of those who have been against this horror since 2000 are expected to have ?

I do see their point , 6 years of the same horror continues today as they still ask for another year that is if there is not another attack here or on Iran . I am one who has been against this from 2000 , this war machine and the attack on Afghanistan were without real cause .


We have seen nothing but death and job loss and the loss of rights , torture and the mass media spin and lies upon lies spewed out whcih also continue to this day , not to leave out the New Orleans and Miss gulf coast , Lebanon and the used and abused troops who suffer as I type this .

So far all those who banter about patience I can only assume you have not been affected directly or are still doing quite well other wise you would simply see the entire picture and shut up .

1. Nope, being patient to me means that I don't want to see
blood running on the streets of this country. Being patient means working in this democratic system until I determine that it won't ever work anymore and I'm not there yet. I lived through Vietnam with a husband over there and I protested but was patient. I lived through Nixon and was patient and he finally was banished. I've lived through many awful things in this country, none of which has caused me to lose patience with the process of democracy...yet...it may come and if it does I'll be there on the street.
