Well, I hope the asshole in the White House had a good time.
Personally, I quit celebrating Independence Day, and won’t celebrate again until/unless we get America back. It’s too confusing and painful. Couldn’t even get through 15 minutes of a fireworks show on TV last night.
I thought I should feel comforted seeing flags along the streets this morning; it would be good to feel that everything is OK. But everything isn’t OK, and even the worst countries in the world fly flags. I cried all the way to my class this morning, like a person cries after losing a family member. Extreme grief.
This is a terrible time for America.
First time (for a long long time) I did not put the flag out on Fourth of July. Didn’t have the stomach for any celebration yesterday.
I’ll enjoy it double time when the Obamas move out of OUR House. And no, I don’t want to wish them a happy Fourth of July.
