537. karma - hope - pride - cockroach motels et. al.

i'll add my voice to the other 'lurkers' on this most bountiful of news days!! i understand those who plead for the celebrants here to remain level-headed...certainly is sound advice.

but for SO many of us, who on most days can no longer recognize the country we knew in our youth, who cannot stomach even the benign weather updates on the news broadcasts or even the living section of the daily papers due to the stench of rot that has fouled the entire media mechanism......we need a bit of a whoo-hoo. a soul-slap IS IN ORDER.

i live on the pacific coast, but just returned from a TX vacation and am taking particular pride in the fact that the state that SO MANY have vilified over the last number of years is the same state that has risen up and reclaimed the RIGHTEOUS HAMMER that hurtled through the late summer sunshine to deliver an ominous warning to the traitors.....and a much needed wind of restitution to so many of us on the sidelines of this seemingly lawless game.

it is better to be the hammer than the nail, indeed.
however the power of the hammer comes with commensurate duty of responsibility, honor, & righteousness. anyone foolish to lose sight of THAT truth whilst drunk with the 'hammer of the gods' only has to look into the lonely, vapid, & dejected eyes of Delay to begin to trace back through history all those who have forsaken the responsibility clause of the mighty hammer of power & influence.

a broken tool is worthless whether it is a shattered hammer or a flimsy, rusted, & bent nail..... such items bear no resemblance to the modest staples, tacks, glue, & primer who righteously answered the call to build something larger than the sum of the materials.

a weakness in our house has been exposed.
yet the house is stronger & more sturdy today because of it.

celebrate with a staple, dream of wielding the hammer, but remember GRATITUDE for our opportunity to take part in community first and foremost.

we're working on a building after all, a holy-ghost building--- do what is necessary to ready oneself for your role in it's construction.

....and if that involves photo shopping Delay with sadistic troopers, horny rhinos, or hard-worn drag queens.....so be it.

so many paths, so many patriots, ONE COMMON GOAL....

thanks to all you "regular DU" folk for all your energy & light which i can assure you have charged up my battries on numerous occassions.

peace, love, & revolution!!
