Trumpocalypse People. Please educate yourselves. Please.

Posted on by

Posted this last month on Facebook, and it’s still true, and bears posting again. I’m having trouble sleeping. Here’s why. I need to say this. And I need you all to hear it and share it. People. Please educate yourselves. Please. This election is no longer about politics. No longer about left and right or republican or democrat. It’s about the people.

A black man whose first and middle names are awfully close to a certain Iraqi dictator and a terrorist….that alone, shocks me….could it be that people are seeing the real issues, now? Is it possible that … Continue reading →

Hillary, and Hoping for Drastic

Posted on by

I’ve been riding around on my angst-wagon about this for so long. I think that neither Hillary nor Obama will be elected as president, even if one of them gains the nomination. The only exception is if new voters tip the scales, and/or the Republican candidate screws up royally and/or the Democrat candidate does a splendid job of convincing voters. Barring those events, we are essentially giving away our chances of having a Democratic president in 2008. Hillary knows this, and I think this can be her one fatal mistake (unless she knows something we don’t know–which is likely). She’s … Continue reading →
