It's not a partisan issue. I wonder if anyone now would admit to voting for Nixon, and yet obviously he won. I wonder in 20 years how many of the vociferous supporters of Bush will admit that they voted for him.<BR/><BR/>Just rambling. It's Christmas Eve, I'm turning off the political brain cells for the weekend.<BR/><BR/>Peace & Joy!Donna Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12456352318216873030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3883703.post-1135413981015247232005-12-24T00:46:00.000-08:002005-12-24T00:46:00.000-08:00Hi Donna--It's frustrating to know how wide-spread...Hi Donna--<BR/><BR/>It's frustrating to know how wide-spread such surveillance is. Has the media reported on the issue in Colorado?<BR/><BR/>And yes, I hate how Bush continues to act like a god-appointed king. I'm feeling more hopeful that he will be stopped. So many people, right and left, are up in arms right now. I think we have the momentum to make things happen.<BR/><BR/>At the peace vigil tonight, we received an overwhelming amount of support from passers-by. No one screamed or spit at us. No one wanted to debate. Most people smiled and held their fingers up in peace and said "thank you." Very heartening. The only dramatic thing that happened was when my hair dipped into my candle and caught on fire! Just a quick sizzle, nothing too dangerous, but it still smells horrible. I didn't realize how bad burning hair smells. Still, the vigil was lovely and inspiring. May 2006 bring even more inspiration and more change!gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03745788005478202736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3883703.post-1135291805653659892005-12-22T14:50:00.000-08:002005-12-22T14:50:00.000-08:00Gayle, they've been doing that here in Colorado fo...Gayle, they've been doing that here in Colorado for years. I can't believe the NY Times is just now getting around to reporting this.<BR/><BR/>The president has got to be stopped. He thinks he is above the law. He is not. That's precisely why we have an elected president and not a god-appointed king in this country.Donna Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12456352318216873030noreply@blogger.com
