So quit. Give up. If it doesn’t make any difference, why are you here?

Recent history supports my pessimism. Every time the GOP is in a position to fundamentally change things, they cave, they capitulate, they cower, they kick the can down the road.

I stopped voting a long time ago. Why? The GOP never does what they say they’re going to do, and the Democrats always do what they say they’re going to do. When the GOP becomes genuinely anti-establishment, anti-crony-capitalism, anti-foreign intervention, anti-Fed, pro free enterprise, pro school privatization, and balances the budget without a tax increase, I’ll be optimistic.

Because if you’re a pessimist, you don’t get let down when someone fails you.

You know, that's a good question. What say you, huckfillary?

Jesus Christ: You can’t impeach Him and He ain’t gonna resign.

That’s a good question. I’ll answer for myself. Conservative politics is bleak, miserable, and reminiscent of the relationship between a battering spouse and a battered wife. So why do I continue? Because so much outside the realm of politics is truly wonderful and life enhancing and in some cases is rendering electoral politics irrelevant.

That and I have an unfortunate affinity for gallows humor.
