I hate hate
Can I say that I hate the anger being directed at our politicians in Washington? How dare these people vent with the hatred and vitriol they have shown, and without regard even to political party! This is an undirected and misdirected venting that serves no purpose and actually highlights the ignorance and stupidity of the people doing the venting.
Let’s begin with the fact that the people making these decisions in Washington were duly elected by the majority of the voters to represent us in making the laws that govern this nation. If these people disagree with the decisions of the politicians, they have the right to vote them out of office in the next election. But to threaten them? I bet they didn’t even vote in the last election.
And then there was the homemade sign in the back of a BMW 740iL parked next to me at the grocery store this afternoon. One Big Ass Mistake America. Oh, funny, taking the name of the President and turning it into a comment. Let’s see, would that have made him Big Ugly Stupid Hick? Hey we can all play that game. But does it serve any purpose? Once again, venting by attacking the people who were duly elected by the majority of the nation. Huh.
Does anyone think anymore? Or is it all just knee-jerk reaction, hatred, vitriol, and stupidity by people upset that their viewpoint lost in the last election. You know what? Get over it. You lost and we won and now it’s your turn to sit and watch as the nation heads in a direction you don’t like. I happen to think that we are heading in the right direction…well, our politicians are, some of our people are definitely heading in the wrong direction. Wonder if they happen to be Republicans or used-to-be-Republicans-but-they-were-too-liberal-Tea-Partiers. Huh.
Let’s get back to honest and open dialog with an understanding that the loser has to accept reality and not attack those who represent us in government. Debate, I can work with. Hate hurts everyone.
