No, I'm not going to get over it

Rant of the day from 12/16/16

In light of what is happening, right now, in North Carolina, I wanted to say a few things:

“Get over it!” “Put your big boy/girl pants on!” “Get on with your life!” “We won, you lost!” “Deal with it!” I’m sure there are many more, but you get the gist. I can’t begin to say how sick I am of hearing those words bandied about. Please click on the link below for the rest of the commentary.

when we are not the laughing stock of the world for installing a misogynistic, ignorant, hate-mongering, lying, thieving, self-admitted sexual predator and pervert (and russian puppet) in the people's house.

I hear no gloating from them, they are just hoping that he doesn't screw up to soon.

But I do know many who totally think Democrats need to get over it, etc. And it drives me nuts. Hence the blog entry.
