I’m Done …

Couldn’t have said it any better!! Wise words … I’m 70 and fully get it!! … “Well I’m done. My country showed me what it has become last night and I don’t like what I see. In fact, I don’t recognize it.

While the election hasn’t been decided yet and could go either way, I am saddened that it was even close. Half this country voted for a fascist, authoritarian President and we may very well get four more years of him. I doubt our democracy could survive.”

Can this moron find a bigger gun?

Well I’m done.

My country showed  me what it has become last night and I don’t like what I see.  In fact, I  don’t recognize it.

While the election hasn’t been decided yet and could go either way, I am saddened that it was even close.  Half this country voted for a fascist, authoritarian President and we may very well get four more years of him.  I doubt our democracy could survive.

I am through writing about politics.  I don’t like being a voice in the wilderness or spitting into the wind.  I am 78 years old and have done all I can.  Besides there is a good statistical chance I will not live to see the next Presidential election – assuming there is one.

Biden is leading in the national popular vote by more that 2.5 million with millions of votes yet…

The Ugly Truth: What the Election Says about the United States

The current, sad American reality!! … “So much for being A City Set on a Hill, The Model Republic or an Exceptional Nation.”

The Inglorius Padre Steve's World

Friends of Padre Steve’s World,

So much for being A City Set on a Hill, The Model Republic or an Exceptional Nation. At times we have been that, but many times we have not, especially in terms of our behavior towards own own citizens at home, especially Blacks and other racial, ethnic, or religious minorities. Whether it be the attacks of the Know Nothing’s on Irish and German immigrants between the 1830s to 1850s; the Genocide committed in the name of our Manifest Destiny; the invasion, Rape and conquest of Mexico in which we took 40% of Mexico’s territory, once again in the name of our God Ordained Manifest Destiny; the enslavement of Blacks that began in Colonial times, followed by our systematic persecution of Blacks following their emancipation, citizenship, and suffrage, during and after Reconstruction and in the Jim Crow Era. The conquest, annexation, and war against Filipino…

Counting Hissy Fits

This is so true!! … “Trump wants to be a dictator so bad. I hope his fear of Joe Biden winning this election is realized and deprives him of his totalitarian dreams. If Joe Biden doesn’t win this election, it might be the last one we ever have.”

The Trump era began with stupidity, ran on stupidity, and will end with stupidity.

Donald Trump is promising to take the election fight to the Supreme Court, though he hasn’t specified on what grounds.

He claims counting ballots after the election disenfranchises the votes already counted. How does that make sense? It doesn’t.

In Pennsylvania and Georgia, Donald Trump is screaming to stop the recount. In Nevada and Arizona, he’s a champion of counting late ballots. In Wisconsin, he’s demanding a recount. His angry mobs of goons, who had been “standing by,” are now at some locations where votes are being counted, demanding for the votes to be counted…which is what’s being done. In other locations, MAGAts are gathered at election offices chanting for the counting to stop.

When Donald Trump won Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin in 2016, he won by very thin margins. His opponent didn’t take the election…
