calimary's JournalJust wanted to add in here
a timely reminder:
DU is a WORLD-CLASS place to vent, and to get shit off your chest.
Ive found that sometimes its really helpful to write this stuff down. And then there it is. On paper or in a post. Its been let out from where youve been holding it in, and it is separate from you.
Then you can look at it with a little distance and maybe thereby with a different perspective. A shorter distance than the present-moment slogan about the view from 30,000 feet...
And others can and will see it (if you post about it) and maybe weigh in. Then youll discover how much sympathy, empathy, and compassion there is here. Weve got some genuine wise ones here.
To you as well, my friend.
You're not alone.
EXCELLENT post. Yes I'm SHOUTING!
That DEFINITELY needs to be asked of Bernie supporters!!!
Said she, who may never be able to forgive or forget how long he held off getting behind her til the last night of the convention, LONG after shed clinched it by anybodys calculations.
If he isnt the nominee, I desperately hope he wont do the same thing again, to he or she who is.
And that said, Ive already stated on the record that I WILL vote for him if he winds up as our nominee. And I know my local Indivisibles will work for his victory over trump, and Ill likely join them in that.
Doesn't matter. Keep bothering them about it.
And try to get your friends to do likewise.
Florida DUers, that means YOU, TOO!!!
Just DO it. Make a call. Call local or regional or their Washington DC offices. Ive found its much easier to get through at the district offices, though.
Or send a postcard! Or a paper letter. Or a fax. SOMETHING that is legitimate undeniable constituent evidence. Hmmm... um... Im getting a lot of shit about this from my constituents... um... theyre keeping track... and Ive got an election coming up... um... wanna keep my job...
WORK IT! And make it work for you - and for ALL of us!
Good. People in the red states: START CALLING YOUR REPS!
Senate, AND House! And at your state Capitols, too.
As my kid used to holler to the crowd at the start of his bands set:
MAKE SOME NOISE!!!
Oh for Pete's sake...
More proof that, with this nasty, mean-spirited, treasonous bunch, cruelty is the point. The whole point. And nothing but the point.
And this bastard actually went to a church service this holiday season. WTF did they sermonize about, in there?
He may well be the best practical choice.
And hes very strong with the biggest demographic we have: the black community. And THEY vote.
