I was born at the end of Gen X and the beginning of the Millennial Generation, and grew up in a middle class town. Life was good. Our home was modest but birthdays and Christmas were always generous, we went on yearly vacations, had 2 cars, and there was enough money for me to take dance classes and art lessons and be in Girl Scouts.

Go to the source. If the FR page does not scroll, contact them.
It’s a sick, twisted, heartbreaking joke, this bloated, unrecognizable corpse of a republic that once was ours.
Now that's great writing!
Are you getting the vapors over “damn”?!
Lighten up Francis, it was a good essay.
Your comment is way out of line. You complain about language then go on to libel the author. You sir are a false witness on the author. Disgusting!
Raised to be a Republican, I held my nose and voted for Bush, the Texas-talking blue blood from Connecticut who lied us into 2 wars and gave us the unpatriotic Patriot Act. I voted for McCain, the sociopathic neocon songbird “hero” that torpedoed the attempt to kill the Obamacare that’s killing my family financially. I held it again and voted for Romney, the vulture capitalist skunk that masquerades as a Republican while slithering over to the Democrat camp as often as they’ll tolerate his oily, loathsome presence.
Can anyone find it in the archives?
I enjoy a good rant, and that one was an elegant sufficiency.
The “Eff” word was used twice at the end and not edited. That’s a no-no on FR.
“It’s a sick, twisted, heartbreaking joke, this bloated, unrecognizable corpse of a republic that once was ours.”
Very sad but true! “It’s a republic, if we can keep it” We failed and will have to restart!
Be strong, there will be some trying times! This will take many years!!
I pray we will be able to really drain the swamp, prepare accordingly!!!
Tough roads ahead!!!!!
Be Blessed
Back when excerpts from Democratic Underground were being posted on here so that we could watch their meltdowns, now THOSE were some really raunchy articles.
I’ve always seen things edited for profanity. I’ve never seen it allowed.
That was a well written piece. She is correct.
There is absolutely NO REASON WHATSOEVER to zot that article.
It is not good. The zot poster is saying the article should be removed.
Not totally up to date on FR policies. Have been here for some time. Usually post other types of articles. If I pay a price for letting OHMama cry to the world, so be it. Well written and a complete cry out to the world.
My apologizes, I’m not going to back track on this, republicans back track all the time, then get steam rolled by the Dem’s.
If Jim wants to suspend my or ban me for this so be it, I am standing up as an American Man!
I don’t edit well, thats my fault!
Blessings!

I didn’t see it the first two times. I couldn’t agree more...conservatives just want to be left the **** alone.
She comes across as none of the above. What is your problem? This is the first time I saw the article.
What they want is to stop policies that force them to do things against their interests.

Then i’ll repost it with edits. Why is the Zot poster here?
I don’t give anyone trouble or hell. I can, how childish. Is he a me to member?
I’ll petition Jim Directly.
Thanks, I didn’t see that. That said, no profanities show in foundedonpurpose’s preview or excerpt. He might want to consider a ‘caution: profanity ahead’ for the delicate flowers. Other than that I see no reason to hyperventilate.
