37. The fact that...
...we no longer have honest elections in this country is most certainly a very tough pill to swallow, but denial isn't gonna
solve the problem. The Christo-republifascists (many of whom are themselves, like Dubya, illegitimate officeholders) that now reign over both the House and Senate aren't about to approve any kind of meaningful election reform. If they did they'd lose their lock on power and they know it. Stay in denial over this if that's what gets you through the day, but we'll never get our country back that way.
