Oct 2016

I've been here before. Spent several years here during the Bush Misadministration. Had it not been for DU, The Smirking Chimp, and the Rude Pundit, well, I would have probably lost my mind. Once Obama was elected, I decompressed, I knew he had this. Unfortunately, Donald Trump has managed to resurrect my disdain for the Right Wing. Once Hillary is sworn in, I may need to take another break!
