On election day I fell into a depressive funk; like going into mourning for the country. It now seems I was being optimistic.

Me, too, but every time I start feeling optimistic, Lucy pulls the football away from me.

As horrendous as it would be, it may turn out open CW could be the only viable option for the survival of America. Heaven help us; I hope not.

Sometimes I think they do this purposely. You have it, no you don't, yes you do, etc. We have a suspect, no we don't, yes we do, no we don't, yes we do but he's being sent home on the next plane.

How many times have they done this on various things, till your head is swimming, and is that the objective?

I think a lot of people (not on FR) are like boiling frogs. Even before Obama our liberties were taken away; small at first, State by State (and a lot started locally) then Federally. New “social responsibilities” were imposed the same way. These were all presented as “for the good” and so were accepted by most. That’s when the water tempature was just warming. Obama turned the heat onto high; it’s something new everyday. Some are just wondering “how did this happen? jump the kettle!” It was the communist plan.
