Finally, their might finally be relief for those traumatized by the 2004 election!
Suppose you could erase bad memories from your mind. Suppose, as in a recent movie, your brain could be wiped clean of sad and traumatic thoughts.
That is science fiction. But real-world scientists are working on the next best thing. They have been testing a pill that, when given after a traumatic event like rape, may make the resulting memories less painful and intense.
Remember that bunch of nut cakes in Florida that sought treatment after the election for “Post Election Selection Trauma” (So aptly given the acronym PEST)
From Boca Raton News of November 10, 2004:
More shocked John Kerry supporters on Wednesday sought psychological help with “post-election selection trauma” in South Florida, prompting the American Health Association to officially release symptoms of the disorder and open its doors for free counseling.
Just think, Democrats could just take a pill and the pain of losing would melt away! What a breakthrough! And it came about under the administration that caused their illness! I smell Karl Rove here!
Think of it, when the Democrats lose a fair election, they can take the pill and feel good. If they feel good, they won’t realize they’ve lost so bad and not work so hard the next election. It’s almost a win guarantee in a pill! How clever of the Rove-ster! Sheer Genius!
Seriously, I take a real wait and see attitude with any drug that plays with brain chemistry. We know that some of this stuff works, but we aren’t always sure why or how.
In any case, there appears to be hope for our traumatized Liberal friends.
