I've had a heavy heart and major pissed off anger at Bush all week. It's really bummed me out but i need to turn it around and do something. This film is a must see and speaks louder than Farenheit 911--too profound for words. This machine has got to die. I don't know either how the man sleeps at night. This mama is with you---against the war! this recent post spoke to me because of the IVAW stuff….i saw Body of War documentary by Phil Donahue and Ellen XXXX this Monday and Phil was there to talk to us after the film.

Each small act adds up- be angry but please don't lose hope. We can make a difference. Glad to see you back. Insanity will make change- it can just take a while.

All day I was fluctuating between extreme sadness and intense anger and frustration. I went to several protests before the war started and numerous after. It is indeed insanity, but you are not insane. You are a compassionate responding to pain and suffering of others- not an easy thing to be in today's world. Know that you are not alone and that your actions represent a sign of hope. Miss you. I wish I had been there, too.

By that definition, if you're mad then so are the perpetrators of these stupid, evil and arrogant actions, because it sure looks like a lot of the same old, same old to me. What do we learn from history? As little as possible, apparently. My respect and congratulations for your continued opposition in the face of frustration and ignorance, and my hope for your success. Hear hear!
