So the problem is this. I have been looking for work since July 2003. I have sent a couple of hundred faxes, even more email, called many offices personally. I had about 6 interviews. And still no job. I've done the online resume posting, I've done the industry networking meeting thing, the unemployment job searching interviewing training thing, the outplacement services resume writing thing, the temp agency job ad in the newspaper when we really don't have them thing and finally the sign on the street corner will work for food thing. (Just kidding about the last one) That's next week's plan.

I've lost my house, my credit, my faith my hope and my reputation.
My cobra and my unemployment has run out. Several times.
I've always been the Pollyanna in my life and my friends and family can attest to that. Well no more. I say today- Life sucks. Big time. And I wear this chip on my shoulder with pride.

And my final conclusion is this.

I hate George Bush. He and his runny snot nosed brother Jeb. And their daft "I don't know how much a pair of socks is at Penny's" father George Sr Bush. Barbara looks like she's a man in drag and its no wonder Laura or the girls have not been seen around George in months. Would you be associated with someone as stupid as all that?

The thing about them is this. Just when I think he's said or done the most stupid thing I can think of, he goes and outdoes himself. Who the hell would admit to not reading a newspaper on national TV when your wife the librarian is sitting right next to you? I though I saw her actually flinch when he said that.

Now I know he comes from the land of "we're proud we're stupid" but come on people. Get your stinkin' noses out of the damn Nintendo and off the porn websites long enough to see what the hell is going on!

We're so afraid that either the terrorists are going to get us or the George Bush John Ashcroft Gestapo is going to- if we open our mouths, that we won't stand up and say "Enough!. Well I am not afraid and I and saying that this is enough. I hope you will too.

But, you say, what can we do? I don't have a job or money or prestige or connections? I say you have something more powerful than all those. You have a voice and a vote. And if we put those together and bug everyone we know starting now to start talking and getting ready to vote, we may have a chance.
