MasonGal, I know, I know Barone is a big one but after Tuesday the pit of my stomach has felt like it did back during summer when Justice Roberts (supposed to be one of ours) kicked me in the stomach with that frigging healthcare vote and then the little toad slinks off to teach for the summer in Malta. I will never get over that vote or Tuesday’s. I actually felt like I had been you know “molested or raped” just used and dirty. I cried most of the night and Wednesday I felt like throwing up. My husband kept walking into my office, asking me are you sick?That knot in the pit of my stomach is still there tonight. I won’t ever forget what they’ve done. I only hope I will be able to find where to channel all this !@#$%^& rage.
I know how you feel. I cried Tuesday and Wednesday, as well. I remember feeling like this when Clinton was elected...as if I was in some type of fog...I literally did not want to get out of bed...this election was much, much worse. I think I’m finally beginning to get out of the crying phase of the mourning, and now I’m in the middle of the “whining” phase. Then hopefully, “chin up”, “shoulders squared”, and march forward (no - not Obummer’s forward, either)...Our country is SO worth it. (ain’t gonna be easy, though!) Tough, tough, times ahead. And now, having an 8-month old grandson puts a whole new dimension and outlook to things. I babysat him today, and I just kept thinking about what it will very be like for him...not the country I recognize, that’s for sure.

Living well is the best revenge! That and never giving up. They want us to be crying in a corner somewhere as long as we stay out of their way. We have 2014 to work on and then 2016 - excellent places to channel rage!
