I understand the sense of deep frustration, even disillusionment over the election result. However, I will always love America. I am not even ashamed of America. People have always easily been mislead by faulty ideology.
I am ashamed of America and they path they've chosen. In a few short years you won't even recognize what it took 300 years to build. It will be ashes. and there will be garbage scattered everywhere.
Irregardless of any "America To Come" I will defend the corner of her most relevant to me and mine, should such a need on the horizon rise. I was as well unhappy with the election result yet the status quo remains. Cups of coffee remain available at the local quickie stop; Ritz crackers still line shelves awaiting purchase, and the sky is as ever cieling above us. If the time for any action has arrived, I think it is the time for falling back; for redefining the borders of our own backyards and for worrying most about who lives within them. Morally, I will never compromise to the ideology of the party line espoused by the so called "winners" and that is sufficient personal victory for now.
I think Boener should let this January deadline--of the Bush tax cuts expire. I wouldn't fight it--it's time that ALL Americans pay their fair share--and as we know this expiration will be a slam dunk on the middle class of this country--some of whom are making 50k per year and have paid no federal income taxes in more than a decade--and bring them back to reality-.. The reality that there is no FREE ride. I would give Obama every single TAX HIKE he wants and let him hang himself with them. The cuts to the military and every thing else that is coming on Jan. 1st--let him do it.
This is why Carter didn't survive a second term and Obama did. As soon as Jimmy Carter got into office he cut the MORTGAGE INTEREST RATE DEDUCTION--and MILLIONS of democrats in this country got slammed dunked with higher taxes. They remembered that on election day--and gave Reagan a land-slide victory.
