Yes, you're right. I screwed up. Wishful thinking.

"Yes, you're right. I screwed up. Wishful thinking."

It's so easy to be an optimist when they use all the right words, like liberty and Constitution and freedom, all those civics lesson words we learned way back in school. It's too bad so few really know what the words mean any more. And of course, those who do know the meaning never seem to believe in it after they get elected or appointed to government office.

I'm really depressed about my kids' future when I see that even an Alito won't make a difference in rulings like this. It's always just one more...Senator, Representative, Justice, election...do I have to wait until I'm on my deathbed to see justice done in this country again?
