Liberals Suffering From Outrage Fatigue
The Onion | Nation's Liberals Suffering From Outrage Fatigue: "It used to be that I would turn on Pacifica Radio and be incensed at the top of every hour,' Levine added. 'Now, I could find out that Bush plans to execute every 10th citizen and I'd barely blink an eye, much less raise a finger.'
Of the liberals afflicted with fatigue, many said they are still haunted by the specters of their former outrage.
'I can't even look at the back of my Volvo anymore,' said one Syracuse, NY liberal who wished to remain anonymous. 'My 'Lick Bush' and 'Four More Wars' bumper stickers just remind me of the angry feelings I can't sustain. I still have a MoveOn.org sign hanging up in my cubicle at work, but if someone starts to talk about Cheney, I can't take it. I'm like, 'Yes, we all hate Cheney. He's an evil puppet-master. Yes, Bush is dumb. This is obvious. How many times can we say it? Now, excuse me, will you let me through so I can microwave my burrito?'' "
