abbi normal "Putting on the Ritz" with Dr Frankenstein

I cannot say anymore about how sad I am about the foriegn policy of the
US.

I cannot keep reading about how arrogant, selfish and ignorant people from the US are.It is usually corrected ,then said to be the leaders, soon enough it is back to the voters......on and on. starting over again.

I've been stuck between a rock and a hard place before......
Just not this rock and this hard place.

It is not as if I am happy or proud of the current policies.
I was not oblivious about what other nations/peoples thought.


It is starting to feel like I am talking badly, about a loved one, nearly every day.
As many here have said:
The US citizens love their country. That is kind of nice to hear actally, from others. I take it as a compliment, because ,I do love the ideals and priorities we are suppose to have.

Sadly ~ Defeated ~ Dejected.

I just cannot do it any more today.
I hope another day, I will feel another way.

Hi Kasesesmiley - smiley

I am better than yesterday afternoon. I just kinda lost it. The US events and leadership . Of course that is on top of stressors closer to home. Plus I have been very uncomfy physicaly without too many options for the moment.

Usually there is more of a mix for me. I know I am a bit out of whack and that is half the battle. HUH? I just need a little more balancingsmiley - zen and a bit of thinking about myself somesmiley - yuk

I look at the Aurora Borealis and fractals to relax.
I have my fractals back YAY! smiley - artistThanks to askh2g2! ~~I asked there smiley - scientist having forgotten the name.

Neugan smiley - bigeyes here-having a functioning idiot as a representative of that which is 'usa' is depressing enough.Then to try & bully the un to back his father`s war w/ hussain when ,frankly,N.Korea worries me more,is unforgivable.Of course the rest of the world thinks the us is completely bonkers!

Denver did have very few smiley - peacesign , this week. There have been several peace demos along the way.

The main event this week was the Veterans Day parade. Denver has one of the largest. A few years ago their was a tearful plea from the Viet Nam Vets about the overwhelming sadness about the Rare ww1 and the many WW2 vets having been forgotten. The horrible way the Viet Nam vets were recieved upon coming home was stressed too. The old guys were dissapearing fast. People began to listen and support the Veterans Day parade here making it one of the largest. Due to that Denver had supporters "FOR the WARs' soldiers" demonstration along with the Veterans parade. Not a peace demo.

I hope to attend the next peace demonstration smiley - smiley There will be more, they are starting to have some pressuring effect. European numbers were impressive.

Did U see anything particuarly facinating? The crowds here were commonly pepper sprayed. How about there?smiley - disco

I fully think Dubya`s going to brand every thinking adult in the usa a "traitor" in 'his' war against 'terrorism' if they dare protest-the very name 'Homeland Security Agency'brings to mind the Nazis.Not that Bush has a mind~ smiley - hugsmiley - earth Neugen smiley - bigeyes
