Ignore

Response to Original message |
|
I'm beaming out towards the Cape my unwittingly well developed "psychic ignore" function.
People were equally as crazed in '04. The race just didn't go on as long.
Bereft of any truly representative leadership for too long, employing a entirely compromised voting systems, with a complicit and coerced media, folks are just plain FRUSTRATED.
I figure, it's far better that the flame each other on the message boards than go to their alma mater bearing arms.
Maybe something constructive will come out of all the rancor. It's largely juvenile at best.
I'm a deluded optimist though.
This too shall pass my friend.
