WoL, We studied this phenomenon in school. Once the argument is lost
the loser either a) concedes the point graciously and agrees to disagree; or b) begins name-calling. Sad.

WriterofLight?
Pullez. Go sell crazy someplace else. You are under the influence of the latest in CIA mind control. If you don't let go of your religious delusions, this administration will drive a Mack truck through your head, back up, and drop an entire load of crap in your lap.
When they pass you that cup of Kool Aid, don't drink....

"It's not always a trudge in the mud."
That's right. For proof, leave the mudhole of this kind of thinking, volaar, and clean yourself up with some truth.

Heart?
Yeah, I have one of those. That's why I despise the Bush Administration and all that it stands for.
But back to the issues I closed with with you, just know that there is hope. It's not always a trudge in the mud. When you hit the freeway on an issue, you'll feel the rush and the excitment that goes along with a significant accomplishment, a heroic breaking of the family chain gang-pain-train.
Bush represents, at best, 6 of the 7 steps required for spiritual evolution. The last step is always taken by God and requires a rest, a sabbath, to accomplish. Humans like Bush NEVER trust God because, at their core, they do not believe in a loving God. They believe and practice the beliefs of Lucifer, the God of cruelty, pain, misery and despair. The only solution to this pain that Lucifer offers is addictive or compulsive behaviors. Delusional thinking. Magical thinking.
God offers miracles through His angels and His children. Miracles respect everyone and everything EXCEPT the delusional thinking that makes the miracle necessary in the first place.
By their fruits ye shall know them. How anyone can reasonably look at the accomplishments of the Bush Administration, both short and long term, and see the fruits of a Christian at work is beyond sane thinking. Only disordered thinking of a high degree could accomplish this seemingly herculean feat of marketing and deception.
There is one way to induce disordered thinking in a mass of people: traumatic amounts of repeated stress to the central nervous systems of the masses. Once overwhelmed, a human can be readily programmed to behave in any number of ways. The younger the human is when the programming takes place, the easier it is to traumatize and program that human. That is why children are vulnerable to the mind control monsters running free in the intelligence business -- a trick the CIA learned from its Nazi friends at the close of WWII. The Nazis learned all this in the Death Camps. The Death Camps were bought and paid for with money laundered in America by the Bush, Brown and Harriman families. Henry Ford was in there, too.

I Would Like to Suggest...
...that you're too damn busy taking care of your kids and keeping up to really understand what GWB stands for. And that level of distraction is by design. We work two to three times harder than our parents did to bring home the same buying power.
I'll give you a clue what Bush stands for: it's almost the exact opposite of his public image. If you saw the facts I see through my eyes, you wouldn't love this man, nor anything that he stands for. Any sensible, moral human being would be appalled.
The religiosity and pseudo-convictions of this human turd-merchant are all lip-service. He is not unlike a Manchurian Candidate preprogrammed by his own father to create mayhem and destruction on command.
Doesn't it strike you as more than a little curious that the Bush Family just happens to know where to put there money BEFORE the military and oil contracts start coming in?
It's all planned and scripted. This administration is far worse than Bill Clinton's administration ever thought of being. Or tried to be.
As for your self-diagnosed absence of self pity, I'm not buying it. It's in there even if it's under wraps. Get off your cross, we need the wood. The only way that the kind of self pity you're talking about gets out the rest of the way is if you give your resentment over to God wholely and completely. Not your opinion of God, but an actual loving God who wants you to be content. Then the woman you were married to becomes the mother of your children, a person who is perhaps sick and has problems, but no less a child of God in the eyes of God. Most importantly, your need to become angry and judgmental over the behavior of other people who indulge, or over-indulge, in self pity completely evaporates.
Talk to the judge. You're enabling your ex-wife to destroy herself by sending her money that she does not need. And you could use the 800 bucks a month. It's not about revenge, it's about fairness. It's about the rule of law. It's not about setting yourself up for martyrdom so that you have the requisite moral sanctimony to guilt other people into doing things your way. People are designed by a loving God to do things the best way they can at the time. Not even God demands His children do anything a specific way; no more should you. If a simple, humble request, a statement of the facts and your own experience are not enough to pull or push someone one way or the other, then you are powerless to do anything further. The case for insanity is much too strong among the insane.
As for your choices in life -- we all have our journeys and crosses to bear, as you well know. Taking responsibility for our choices does NOT mean we do not identify the origin of our processes and the nature of the problem at hand. If your partnership selection criteria is flawed in spite of your best conscious efforts, the problem is subconscious and therefore relates to your family of origin. Dig it up, own only YOUR part in the mess, and clean up what you can. You'll know you're making progress when the partners who start showing up are gradually of a saner and happier variety. Certainly easier on your nerves.

Volaar, I love GWB and everything he stands for. I have made my views known in my "Should Bush Be Impeached?" blog. Now, my life is not perfect. I have two teenage daughters from Jupiter; I pay 800.00 monthly in child support to their mom who has no integrity -- yet my kids live with me -- 24/7 for the last three years; I have never missed a child support payment and I do not blame the government. I have made foolish mistakes in life, and continue to make bad choices from time to time. I am beyond the dating game -- too intelligent they tell me -- so I am alone all of the time, but not lonely. And I'm broke all the time because I spent every penny on my kids. It occurs to me to assess that maybe things are as they should be, and perhaps coulb be much worse. At any rate, I deal with my anger in constructive ways and consider political debate to be academic, not personal. I do respect your opinions!
