Brent toughen up buttercup. Get a real job and begin enjoying life.

Fair advice for Brent. Indeed in criming Glenn Beck, he could be throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Indeed, no man could me more obtuse and downright abusive of anyone raising questions about the eligibility of the now president.

For it was he, Beck, who ranted incoherently at an innocent woman caller who mildly mentioned the electoral college and eligibility in 2008. I know it is presumptuous of me to mention American history to someone like Brent who should be well versed in the past.

The poster boy for virulent and spiteful abuse, as president might well be Andrew Johnson of Tennessee. Johnson was processed into the presidency on the assassination of President Lincoln. All hell broke loose. He offered less harsh terms to the defeated South, Still harsh by any standards. He survived impeachment by one single vote. Edmund Ross of Kansas was nigh threatened and beaten for that dissenting vote.

Yet the Republic survived to become the main world power, superseding Britain. Dinna fash yersel Brent, the Republic will survive. It will sort itself out in a free expression based on the First Amendment to the Constitution.

Please excuse the rant. I have a California wine blended with an Ontario wine on hand. (chuckle).
