This thread wasn't intended to be about hate; it's about anger. I understand that they sometimes seem interchangeable, but they're not. At least not for me. Anger can be a wonderful motivator. Without anger people would never quit sh*tty jobs or divorce worthless assholes.

I read the body count out of the paper
and now it's written all over my face


I've recently started noticing that reports of the atrocities in Iraq weren't always pissing me off as per usual. Weary resignation is more often the order of the day now. And that bothers me. I have basically two speeds when it comes to political issues: Anger or apathy. And the thought of being apathetic about war causes me to worry for my soul.


And that's what this thread is about. I'm angry at this adminstration for slowly stealing my anger and replacing it with a nasty apathy/despair virus. Of course that's what they want - always, since the dawn of time - leaders thrive on apathy. Apathy feeds the beast.

I don't want to be beast food. I want my precious anger back.
