- Go to USA Today Manufactures a Poll to Support its Story!
FW, hardly revolutionary at all!
It's been done for years and years.

Here, Xenox the Warrior Princess . . .
are some flowers for you in your sickness 

While I certainly appreciate your comments, you need to do something about that desire to expose yourself to conservative light even when it sickens you. Like you, I was once allergic to truth, common sense and love of country myself, but I finally was cured a few years back. Hang in there, my friend, there's hope for you as well.
But now that you've aired your health ailments, what do you offer in opposition to my musings? I'd recommend offering vigorous arguments rather than lamentations of your ill health, because you will find the exercise stimulating.
As far as freedoms being eroded - I'm most concerned about my freedom from hostile attack on my country being eroded.

Welcome back, Justi!
I used to drive a car with that name (see

I played Twister once, and I don't think my back has been the same since. Excellent metaphor, though.

Hahahahaha!
what a revolutionary idea! manufactured polls??? that's a new one. I guess it's like those the GOP trots out that Bush personal popularity rating is over 60 percent. It's only his job performance that hovers in the high 20s.

it's a sorry state of affairs
that so many people will allow their freedoms to be eroded
and people like you are promoting such erosion.
as I told Corbin, Mr. purveyorofdarkness
you people make me sick
and every time i read you you make me sicker
but i have to put up with in order to at least have a slight idea of the kinds of distorted minds that support such a malevolent adminstration.
and of course comment in oppositon to your misguided fantasies.

There was a game that came into vogue in the 1960 era called twist.
people stood on a mat with numbers and symbols on it and had to bend and gyrate into positions so twisted to get their hands and feet on these positions. I always see that in my mind when I think of how the media today twists everything to their advantage. The worst of it all is so many don't see that and they believe them. None are so blind as those who won't see. It is nice to be reading your posts again. I have been away awhile. Back and a new name (Justsouno)
