GUSsacks, as some of you know, I was dating a wonderful woman for most of the month of June and part of July. I had not felt this happy since my last serious relationship ended five years ago with my ex-fiancee. This young lady awoke in me feelings that had been either asleep or suppressed because of all the pain I had felt in the past. Perhaps it would have been best for me to keep to feelings locked away as I yet again suffer the same heart break.

Last Friday, at around 12:00pm central time, the young lady I was dating said she could not date me anymore. She was not answering my calls beforehand and I felt slighted. She said that she is like this, likes to go out and that she valued her freedom. I responded by asking if she could find time out of her day to make for me. She then said that she did not want to have this conversation and that she could not do this anymore. Thus ended what could have been a wonderful relationship. What kills me is all the wonderful things she told me before this and the how wonderful she made me feel. Now, it has been a week since this unfortunate event and I feel the complete opposite. Hence, I have decided to put up a few break up songs to explain how I feel. Follow me bellow the fold.

We have seen in the last week that the rethug party voted against the stimulus bill. Yet the news for our economy is getting worse day by day. Then we hear that Wall Street tycoons are using taxpayer money for bonuses. President Obama rightly called out these crooks on this stunt. However, the economic struggle is affecting even individual states of this union. Case in point below the fold.

I am not sure if this was diaried. If it was diaried, then I will delete. I apologize if this diary is rather short. I know that there have been a number of Bachmann diaries here on Dkos since this afternoon. There is good reason for this since Michele Bachmann went on a MacCarthy like tirade on Hardball this evening. However, I would not expect to see what I am about to write about. Follow me below the flip.

Hi all. Please forgive the shortness of this diary. Also please forgive any spelling and grammatical errors I may have. I am so angry right at Heather Wilson and not because she is a woman. Hence, please do not accuse me for being mysoginistic. I am angry at her for being one of the worst political hacks for the McCain campaign.

I would like to take this opportunity to present you with diary that does not focus on the day to day politics here Daily Kos. I know some of you are worried about the polls recently, but they are just polls. I want to take this time to tell you about a subject that is dear to my heart. I also would like to share a little bit more of my culture with all of you at Daily Kos. Please sit back, forget about politics for a bit, and enjoy this diary.

Hi all,

I was blogging and watching the RNC a few minutes ago when I saw something weird happen. In fact, this was so weird that Keith came back and made a real powerful comment. More below the fold.

"Water. Earth. Fire. Air. Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the fire nation attacked. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements could stop them. But when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years passed, my brother and I discovered the new avatar, an airbender named Aang. And although his airbending skills are great, he's still got a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone. But I believe Aang can save the world."

My fellow Kossaks,

I want to take this opportunity and tell you of my personal hardships the last few months. This is going to take strength and humility from my part to tell you. You see, I am a reserved person and I do not like to broadcast my life for all to see. However, the last five months have shown me that there is compassion in the world and that Liberalism is a beautiful and wonderful thing. Hence, this diary will tell the reason why I am a liberal and I why I am damn proud to be one. This diary will also show you that compassion is to be found in those we care and love the most. I am trying my hardest not to tear up while typing. This diary will not be all doom and gloom for at the end I will provide a happy ending. Follow me bellow the flip.

Naomi Klein was just a guest on Countdown and was discussing Irag in reference to the conecpt of the "The Shock Doctrine." Back in September, I read wonderful diary on the conept of shock posted here in Daily Kos. The diary can be find on the link below:

http://www.dailykos.com/...

I have to thank Itsmitch, for that diary because my curiosity got the better of me. I went ahead and viewed the rest of the videos on You Tube after reading the diary. Being the avid reader that I am, my mother asked me what I wanted for my birthday back in October and I said, "The Shock Doctrine."

Hi all. This diary is going to be brief, but to the point. I apologize for the brevity of this diary before hand. However, I felt that I should just let everyone know what I just heard.
