Land of the Free is now Land of the Fearful...

I knew this administration would be a nightmare but what has transpired in the last month is worse than I imagined. Everyday they set out to hurt someone and/or the environment. My heart aches when I think of what they are doing to our immigrants...the Republicans are such hateful bastards. I wake up every morning wondering what hell they will bring forth today.

On 9/11, the United States of America, ceased to be the home of the brave and became the home of the fearful! Even under the Obama administration, Republicans of every stripe sold fear to Americans, from the bank bailout to the Affordable Care Act...it has been fear, fear, fear, from the mouths of Republicans!

All Trump and Pence did was to keep feeding the boogeyman in the closet, now being afraid is as Republican as burning witches was to Puritans!

Yoda said it best

“Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.”
