There are days when all you hear from the news (and I don't mean the MSM) is what's "underneath" the story. Under Tom DeLay is Jack Abramoff, under Iraq is a bunch of lies, and so on.
(More under the fold...)
I admit that under this diary is a need to develop the poll that's attached.
But under that is the idea that if I can find a way to get a laugh out of what's happening, I won't throw up, or cry, or give in to the urge to craft headgear out of the aluminum foil. (I can't afford tinfoil. It's that bad.)
In the meantime, I continue to live in what's deemed a red state, and that in itself requires a near-hourly dose of truth, courage, and plain humanity. I find that at DKos, MediaMatters for America, RawStory and so on. Strength in numbers. And what's under that? I dunno. We may all be going commando.
Full disclosure: I used to post here under the "PhoenixWoman" sobriquet. But when I was totally outclassed, and rightfully so, by the "real" Phoenix Woman, I morphed.
