58. I thought of that too. But, are we Patriots who love our beloved Country by doing that?

At this rate we are going to be turkey. It's happening on our watch. We have an obligation to tend to our nation. The rule is to give it to our children better than we found it.
They WANT us to stop watching. Imagine if trump went un-watched? We need to take the bull by the horns. Insist that the investigation be completed regardless and move on to the repercussions. Whatever they may be.
Coal ash pits kind of symbolize it for me. And Global Warming. Once they flood into water supplies and the globe is so hot we can't grow food, then what? We have to face it that some really hard choices are ahead. Find some leaders who agree, and get going.
I think it's the PERFECT time for President H Clinton to stand up and start leading as if she were the president. President Obama to start speaking out more forcibly. VPs Gore and Biden to start speaking truth. President B Clinton and President J carter to start talking out about how bad this is. Is that too much too ask? We have to get some stronger more vocal leaders bc Congress is extremely busy, and a lot wont speak too forcibly bc they are running for president as well. The gloves need to come off. a rabid hardcore 31% of this country is driving us off the rails and everyone is reluctant bc theyll be attacked and insulted by the right. Oh well. Put your big boy pants on and get going. The worse it's broke...the harder to fix...if ever.
If they won't do it then we better start figuring out a Citizens Corp who arent afraid and start making some noise. LOUD noise. The gop thinks they have scared everybody into submission out of threat of civil war etc. Not sure about you, but, if i have to lay it down again for my Country. i will.
