At this moment I feel very thirsty y’all. I know that we have a half full bottle of good Brandy around somewhere. But, I am a heart patient, so you can’t tell anyone, ok?
I mean, we really needed to send the Republicans a loud and clear repudiation with this election. We needed to send each other a loud and clear message about what we can agree is right and wrong, and we needed to send a particular ‘basket of deplorables’ a collective shout to STOP THIS MADNESS!
But, instead we will be lucky to squeeze out a thin margin of a win (assuming we even get that) that will be vulnerable to legal bulls**** for who knows how long, or to what end.
I don’t know my country, or it’s people anymore. And I thought I was confused about my service to this country during Viet Nam. Now, I just don’t know what we are, or where we are going from here.
And I just know that the rest of the world is watching in horror, and telling themselves, and each other, ‘America may be lost, and we certainly cannot trust their people to be again the America we knew and love, or at least respected and admired’.
Ahh, thank the heavens I just found my bottle.
