To take a look around and see that while you were trying to live your life, the country has gone the way of Caligula is daunting. The overwhelming tendency is to run and hide, especially if your personal cocoon is a cushy one. But, that will not get us out of this mess. We all have to find the courage to again rage against the system of inequity and injustice and corruption that is today so pervasive at every level of public (and often private) life.<br /><br />The American vision of democracy is in its adolescence and it shows! We are a young country! The mature minds among us must be the adults in the room and model civility, perseverance, and the joy of having the opportunity to do so!<br /><br />Please find a way to act, folks! Big or small, local, state, or federal arena, it matters not as long as each of us does something!Winninghamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11857942094357751680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7465072391199760560.post-8067466051283860502016-04-26T10:02:42.055-05:002016-04-26T10:02:42.055-05:00Amen!Amen!Gail Heinsohnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7465072391199760560.post-59852494431709190682016-04-26T06:03:49.980-05:002016-04-26T06:03:49.980-05:00I wish I had your optimism about Hillary Clinton. ...I wish I had your optimism about Hillary Clinton. Because what I see ahead of us, some of it her fault, some of it not, is another 4-8 years of lunacy from the right. The things that will be her fault: a completely nonexistent sense of optics -- How Things Look. (See also: e-mail server. Did she really think that with their history, this would be ignored?) An even more hawkish foreign policy than Obama (Ground troops in Syria! What could go wrong?). A blind eye to Wall Street chicanery. "Compromise" on tax cuts for corporations and a Grand Bargain(TM) on Social Security. I'm not buying this sudden leftward shift. If Bernie Sanders weren't there, we wouldn't be hearing ANY of this. I was there in the room at the McCormick Center in Chicago in 2007 when she was asked at what was then called Yearly Kos about lobbying and her answer was "Lobbyists are Americans too." <br /><br />You already know what the things NOT her fault will be: One of them will be whatever comes out of Bill's mouth, as he sounds more and more like Grandpa Simpson on a particularly grouchy day. Another will be the watermelon-shooters: The people who are going to once again start ruminating about Vince Foster and the rest of the crap that we had in the 1990s. Add to that the level of vile misogyny that's going to greet a woman president with a (D) after her name who isn't deemed fuckable by GOP pundits. (Aside: This is what makes me nuts about the Hillbots on Facebook who are screaming misogyny every time someone disagrees with her on, say, Middle East policy. Policy differences are not misogyny.)<br /><br />Oh, I'll vote for her because the alternative is unthinkable. But I will do it with no enthusiasm and even less hope, either for our party or for the country's (and the world's) future.Jill C.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7465072391199760560.post-5413078871822133262016-04-26T00:12:10.484-05:002016-04-26T00:12:10.484-05:00+1 on "WTF-o-Meter".
