This is so wrong on so many levels. [View all]

For a sitting member of Congress to post a picture of himself and his family holding assault weapons as their Christmas Card just days after yet another school massacre is obscene and sick!

To say the wheels have fallen off in this country is beyond an understatement. There is a pervasive lack of morality and decency with the GOP and millions of it's blind sycophants.

I don't know how we even begin to fix this?!? I've said it before and I'll say it again; other than dividing this country up and sending these sick f&cks packing, I don't know what we can do to fix it. I'm open to suggestions!

As Dylan said:

Then time will tell who fell

And who’s been left behind

When you go your way and I go mine
