It is Saturday night and I am just back from a dinner party. Old, good friends were there and much of me relished being there.
It’s an interesting night. I’ve had a few glasses of wine and yet I am focused.
My inbox is being inundated with new messages from the Democrats – its become grim out there now that Obama has declared he will use an Executive Order to reform Immigration. Republicans seem to be declaring war. According to the emails I am receiving there is talk of impeachment and prison for Obama.
Yikes! Really?
The Emancipation Proclamation was an Executive Order!
I’m tired of it. As I think are most Americans – tired of the partisanship and rhetoric and stupidity. I am tired of the gridlock. I am tired of the whole thing.
Here I sit in my lovely cottage, seemingly safely away from all the silliness. But I’m not, really. None of us are, if we live in an engaged America. But so few of us do. 36% of eligible voters actually voted in the last election.
That’s pitiable. PITIABLE.
36%. Really!
