Post-Bush re-election: suicides and emigration

Why am I not surprised that someone would kill themselves rather than spend four more years under the destructive reign of George W. Bush? IN talking with medical professional and healing arts professionals, they have told me they are treating a rising number of people for stress-related illnesses brought on by Bush's re-election - ranging from temporary paralysis to severe anxiety. You can read about the 25-year-old man from Georgia here.



This was not a Northerner. This was a Southerner and how symbolic that he did it at the place where Bush whipped women with children into a pro-Bush voting frenzy claiming he was making them and their children safe.



Poeple are also surfing Canada's immigration site by the millions, looking to leave the USA and because of Bush's re-election. One segment on "The Daily Show" showed a graphic of the United States of Canada above Jesusland.



Bush is now slightly backing off his arrogant post-election posture and claims he wants a bipartisan government that includes Democrats. Of course it is to pursue his personal goals that he claims are the agenda of all Americans: changes in Social Security that will only benefit some, a cap on medical malpractice damages as requested by his wealthy physician lobbyist friends so that they don't pay anything damaging for leaving a scalpel in your intestines during a surgery and disabling you for life, increasing the massive debt he has gifted to future generations so he can have more money to fight Iraqi freedom fighters in Iraq and keep the USA occupying that land, and more "tax reform" to give more to the wealthy so they can have more and the poor increase in number.



He laughed with reporters as he said the next four years will be "a lot of fun".



How many USA citizens will die laughing?



How many USA citens will become Canadian permanent residents?



Does Bush care?



I think we know the answer to that last question.
