So...you're fed, warm and your medical needs are being addressed.  Gore's still a boob, and you're still mad that he didn't win. Don't know what Michael Moore has to do with anything. 

I get the impression you're one of those "glass half empty" kind of people when it comes to our country.

Yo:::Fox

Walk a mile in our shoes I guess. I always felt Gore was a "boob" too, so wrong again. I'm actually "mad" that Bush was a bigger "boob" and we got sold a bill of goods that Mr. Hayne couldn't pull off. You just kind put me in the mind of Moore, because it was obvious that I don't like crooked politicians of any acclaim, and to argue against that sounds like him. 

Not gonna take the bait on this one. I usually don't fill a glass full. Less to clean up after the boobs spill em.

Gnight

Well there you go then.  Tommorrow's another day, and another oppurtunity to find that dark cloud inside of the silver lining.

Mornin Fox

You know, all kidding aside and the truth? Well yes I have to roll with the theory of hope, that every cloud has a silver lining. That sooner or later our night in shining armour will eventually ride in on his white horse and save the day. But more and more lately, it's beginning to look like he will have been away for over 2000 years. I am thankful that for the most part, in spite of my limitations, that so far::: today, I do have a roof, a warm bed, three:::well in my world, I have to break them down into six "squares" a day. A vehicle at all, and the will to want to see and try to make a difference. My compassion for others and feelings derived from sheer will at times that God helps those who help themselves, also means that if you can, we should help others too. The nicest thing anyone can wear is their smile. I don't pray for riches nor fame and a higher station in this life, but merely enough. I think that our biggest problem nationally, are our leaders. Most just don't know when they have enough. Nor do those who want to see those types leading this nation.

I understand your relentless points of our prosperity, though not so great any more, in spite of all these devastating financial troubles. I really do. But where I am coming from? Is that thanks to a tiny handful of little men and fewer women, there is a great and growing number of us Americans who are suffering at the ideals and hands of this tiny collective. By their complete misunderstanding of not only the meaning of "E Pluribus Unum"  but what put us here, or how to turn that around. So now things are worse. Yes. I am better off than many who have less and much less as would apply to a lot of us. I am thankful that my husband works, wants to work, while taking anything he can to keep what little we have. I'm always depressed that I am of little economical help. Until my heart attacks and 7 surgeries I was in nursing for 12 years and loved to work. But these days I fear every day::: that because of those foolish "boobs" before and those now running things, the darker road might still be ahead. As you pointed out and I wholly agree, This Nov. and in 2012 are chances to put new faces with perhaps better plans in place.

 I just wished we had a better way to be rid of those who harm our future. I wish that ethics were more important to them in spite of some not being illegal. I always thought the oath of office guaranteed that. In spite of some good things about our society that may well be just residual by now, there are too many things that should not be. That's my biggest point Fox. I detestcrooked politicians regardless of party and stance. I once took on a task to dispel or prove a cooked politicians percentage claim. It was wrong as stated, since the dems were worse over all. But the bigger point was that there were so many on both sides of the fence, and over half were down right criminal acts. From the top down, many acting or standing within an attitude or claim that they were above their own laws. It's sickening.

Sorry about the Moore thing.
