Whatever happened to the little stink about Obama not signing this bill against horse slaughter? This was before he was elected. How did it turn out. Did he sign it or not? And what did that bill actually provide for?

I want to know, because my daughter's schoolmates are still on about it. unfortunately, the school she attends is largely attended by the children of supporters of the previous president who are also religious nuts.

Woohooooooooo! I don't have to leave the United States now! I can stay! There is HOPE now! I can't believe I am having the pleasure of typing these precious words. But here it is-this country made me proud tonight, finally. I think this is the first time I have felt proud to be an American since I was a little girl, before Kennedy was shot.

It's bad enough that during the week or two before an election, the pollsters keep us "up-to-date" on what the latest polls say about the numbers in favour of each candidate. People who may intend to make some effort in favour of their guy/gal may not expend that effort if they think there are already sufficient numbers doing that.But the worst thing is..

Is anybody else feeling like this?

I wonder if I am the only one?

I always imagined I would be here for my whole lifetime. Maybe I would travel a bit, but my home would be here. I also thought that the house I live in now would probably be the one I would have for the rest of my life. I do like it very much. I even bought a few things- a neat fireplace screen (one of those stained glass ones), a sofa, a love-seat, a chair and ottoman. A nice mirror. In my late 40's, for the first time in my life, I bought real furniture! Serious stuff!

And now?

All my plans for a cozy old age are gone. I have no idea where I will be. This cute home is no longer in the plans. I just don't think that the US is going to be safe or comfortable anymore for ordinary people like me. It seems that it's being taken over by wild-eyed, crazed Christian Republican wacko fanatics, and that scares me. They have no qualms about lying, cheating- doing anything bad, to accomplish their control of this country.
