A Country Divided
Last night's outcome leads me to believe the majority of this nation is comprised of God-fearing Christians. We are represented by a leader who has divided the country, and has turned a deaf ear to the rest of the world. We are in a holy war, and our European predecessors are very concerned. We have been instilled with fear: fear of God, fear of the Muslim world, fear everywhere we turn. Fear and hate is in the air; can't you smell it? They call it faith.

I am truly saddened by the results of this election. As a country, we will pay for this. If you're a left-leaning, progressive, liberal type, you'd better be ready to fight for every inch of your rights. This is much more serious than any of us can imagine; there are many forest fires raging on the political landscape, and not nearly enough water or manpower to put them out. Supreme Court nominations, the Patriot Act, the Holy War, womens' right to choose, the imminent bankrupting of America. One party dominates the entire process, so there are no checks and balances. This is division. Start reading. And have a laugh or two.

1. I played basketball with Bob Mould before

just sayin'

2. He seems like a smart, cool guy...a decent human being.

The rest of his blog is worth a read. He's got some things to say regarding the current state of affairs that deserve to be heard.

:toast:

3. I do read his blog

However, as a hoops player he left much to be desired.

5. I saw Will Pitt and Jonathan Simon one week ago in

Brookline MA and one of them (sorry guys,can't remember which) said we are fighting a political war on 20 fronts

A political war on 20 fronts;I've been thinking about that phrase all week

We have to start to talk about politics and current events daily with people we don't normally talk to about this stuff. We have to get others involved
