Perhaps it is wrong of me
to hate and fear Republicans. But I do. I do.

I don't believe the vote totals. I believe we are being cheated. I believe that Republicans are stealing democracy. I do believe this. I do.

I love America.

I love America.

I love America.

I am scared. I am scared. I am scared.

Let's do something. Let's find a way. Let's take our country back.

Is it still possible to convince that thirty-something CPA in the Izod shirt that Rush Limbaugh is full of shit? Is it still possible to convince that single mom in the tiny house down the block that Dr. Laura is a bitter old whore? Is it still possible to convince anybody that America is an experiment worth saving?

I mean us AND them. They obviously don't give a rat's ass. Jesus, do we?

Yes, of course we do.
Yes, of course we do.
Yes, of course we do.

But we have to find some common ground with our fellow citizens and I'm at a loss to see how that will happen.

Good lord, I am scared for my country.

But hell's bells, maybe we'll still win this thing. Stranger things have happened.

Listen, I am sorry for this rant. Just letting off steam.

But no shit, I'm scared.
