| First post-therapy Kerry supporter speaks out publicly |
| 2004-11-15 |
| A post-therapy John Kerry supporter spoke out about her trauma treatment for the first time this weekend, saying Florida psychologist Douglas Schooler took her from the depths of despair over President Bush's victory to a new lease on life. Forty-four year old Karen of Boca Raton, a divorced mother of one who didn't want her last name in print, called the trauma specialist's intensive election therapy "profoundly effective" and described his hypnosis technique as "a healing process." "I wasn't sleeping," Karen told the Boca Raton News in an interview. "I was very devastated and very astonished that people would re-elect this president. I was moody about the war and economic issues. I felt very unsettled and fearful. I thought, 'Oh no, what will happen for four years?'" Karen, whose medical insurance covers the treatment, said she approached Schooler last week after finding herself unable to function publicly due to President Bush's re-election. "Dr. Schooler absolutely understood the pain this election caused me and he opened my mind to a new point of view," Karen said. "You're relaxed, he talks to you and you just come out of it feeling more positive and renewed. It took one session. He did some relaxation techniques and probably did some things I didn't even realize." |

| #9 he opened my mind to a new point of view... What did he use? A cold steel chisel? Gelignite? C4? It couldn't have been sweet reason. I've been trying that for four years and it has no effect whatsoever, other than to really piss them off. Start drinking, move to Canada, or just GROW UP! Precisely, Cyber Sarge! LOL |

| #5 WAAAH WAAAH WAAAAH! Shrinks are fake doctors and can offer NO medical diagnosis. If your bummed about this election wait till 2006 and then in 2008, that is when the Republicans will control 60% of Congress. Start drinking, move to Canada, or just GROW UP! |

| #3 "He did some relaxation techniques and probably did some things I didnât even realize.â I believe there are laws against that, but it sounds like it was "just what she needed". :) |

| #2 That's it. The Onion and Scrappleface will have to close down, unable to compete with an increasingly absurd reality. Even the Weekly World News may not be able to survive, though its policy of not admitting satirical intent may pull it through until the final defeat of idiotarianism and the restoration of sanity. |

| #1 Lol! This will do wonders for Dr Schooler's practice! Poor Karen. All that money. She should file a class-action suit against the DhimmiDonk Party and all of it's leaders to recover her recovery costs, heh. |
