I emailed this to about ten people only to find out it appears to be not available anymore. Our brains on hope are gone. Is gone. Was gone. Damn! Well I enjoyed it very much while it was there.

One of the most devious would be to set up false hope.

Which means blind hope is a dead end. Like waiting for a door to open by someone else instead of moving on or opening it ourselves. I suspect that is one of the modes for control that will be used for those most suseptable to. Be aware and conscious. Asks questions and be skeptical of all answers.

It's much more than a spot in the road in Arkansas!

It's much more than blind belief in being taken care of!

It's the stuff of The Founders, Abe Lincoln, FDR, JFK, RFK, and Obama supporters by the millions!

It's not passive; it's the fuel that runs the engine of progress! And it cannot be denied!

Give it up, all you who live in the shadows of gloom and doom, fear and shame! Hope is on the way!

And it shall triumph.

...thinking that it might feed their kids for next couple of days!...

so sad that this road kill actually died of starvation on election day 2004
and is nothing but bones now!

wonder if any of the remaining candidates will EVER do
whats genuinely in their constituents best interests
and not only whats in their Lobby/PaC's interests!

And the best part was the punch line. Thanks, I laughed out loud.
