I'm now completely done being amazed.

82. I agree with every word you say.

I am beat down, but I DO NOT believe that liberal principles are out-of-step with the American people. But how do we get them to see that?

Too many people shut down when policies are advocated as democratic, or worse, liberal. I sent my right wing mother that Joe Conservative essay & asked her what points she took issue with. She never wrote back & when I asked her about it on the phone, she said she didn't know what I was talking about. She was so entrenched in her ideology that she could not & would not see facts.

I would have thought people would be revolting now, having to work three jobs instead of the one we worked 10-15 years ago. Having a mountain of debt for a college degree that gets you a job at McDs. Hoping you & no one in your family gets sick because you have no way to pay for a doctor. Having to train your overseas replacement in order to get your severance package. How do we get through to the people who are living this day to day & still chant, "USA Number One!"? My husband works with a room full of them. My BIL is one.

If it's not bad enough now, I wonder, how bad does it have to get?

Today is a lovely day & my internet time is up!
