Going to my 'Happy Place'...and staying there. (VANITY)
My twisted brain | 12/15/10 | Hoagy62

Posted on 12/15/2010 10:34:46 AM PST by hoagy62

Just perusing through the posts here on Free Republic this morning, I found the following:

    "Why is incest a bad thing?"
    "Not enough research done to see if polygamy is harmful"
    "McDonald's being sued by CSPI over Happy Meals"

Add to that:

    Escalating tensions on the Korean Peninsula
    A President who won't do anything about that or ANY OTHER world crisis
    Same President who may or may not be eligible to even hold the office he currently occupies
    Unemployment at Great Depression levels, but the government won't acknowledge it
    Massive government debt that will be near-impossible to pay off
    Half of America doesn't give a rip

I'm beginning to understand the logic (or lack thereof) of liberals who live in their 'fantasy worlds' who refuse to face reality. When you start realizing how utterly screwed up the world out there is, it would make any sane person want to go someplace and hide...for a long time.

Do any of you feel like that?

Yes! I feel like that. Mostly because the idiocy of the left seems impossible to overcome. A friend was strolling through a grocery store the other day & discovered a bottle of “Leninade”. It’s just lemonade, but the bottle has the lines ‘get hammered & sickled’ & ‘worth standing in line for’ on it (very funny, huh?). She wrote a letter to the editor of the local fish-wrapper stating that communism was a benighted ideology that resulted in the deaths of one hundred million people & wasn’t a laughing matter. Someone responded on-line to the letter calling it McCarthyism. They refuse to read or understand history & it looks like we’re all condemned to repeat it as a result. Time to go stock up on more ammo.

You sound just like the Mr this morning...

It’s all overwhelming and I keep wondering where ‘bottom’ is.

Depending on the day, I'm torn between going Rip van Winkle and going Rambo.

I imagine many of us are getting closer to the latter.

The “bottom” is a mass grave with the bodies of others those in power deem ‘undesirable.’

Only momentarily. Then I weigh the consequences of becoming like a liberal. Too horrible to contemplate. Don’t retreat, reload.

Nah, that’s suicide. I’m not into suicide. Now don’t ask me about that other -cide, okay?

Then again, you said “any sane person”, and I’m not afflicted with sanity.

You know, there’s a part of me that would like the violence of CWII to come sooner rather than later: the sooner it’s over the sooner we can rebuild. Of course it’ll be the victor that is rebuilding and there is no guarantee that “our side” will be the victor... only God, being also the God of War, can guarantee victory: and even then it might not be clear-cut. The story that comes to mind is one where the tribes went to war against another tribe and were handed defeat after defeat despite God having called them up, but then they went into battle once again and won. After that battle though the tribe the others were against had [virtually] no more men and was whining about being doomed to extinction, but that’s another [though related] story.

Yes I get where you are at right now. This entire week I have not watched the news or listened to talk radio except for 10 minute drive in the morning. I have been watching EWTN while making dinner & reading the Bible in the evenings.

Sometimes, I need a break from the world. THIS is one of those times.

In the trying times of todays world, it’s tough finding a way to have a positive attutude. I know, I too fight for one every day.

I figure that my positive attitude may not solve all of the problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. ;>)

Just when you think everything has hit bottom, the bottom falls out and we hit a new low. Before I get arrested for knocking the crap out of the first liberal I see, I escape to Farmville on Facebook to calm down. Or I talk to my parrots because they make more sense than anything that is going on....then I reload...
