NOW YOU KNOW

NOW YOU KNOW what you voted for, or against, and how the future will go from now on. You may have thought the world was your oyster. Sorry, no pearls. You may have fought to keep your freedoms. Sorry, no luck. All in all, you lost, I lost, the US. lost, all around.

You might even conclude that the whole world has lost the last hope it had in the experiment of the U.S.A. If it can't work here, where can it work? If we can't fight to keep our hard won freedoms, who will we turn to? Some may think this is a turning point. Yes, it is. But not in the direction we needed to go. Those who fight overseas to insure the freedoms for some other lands, will not see this as a victory, but a loss. If we can't sustain freedoms here, why are we even trying to help others to take the first steps toward freedom? Those lands will also wonder and question and be afraid that the goal posts have just been torn down and they did not even get to cross the line in the game.

Politics is a dirty word and now the consequences are even dirtier. There is one last chance, America!! When you vote each November - remember this disgraceful moment and vote out anyone (no matter the party) who didn't uphold your freedoms. The freedom to vote is precious and each and everyone of us has a duty and a right to do so. If you do not - then you are part of the problem that got us to this point. Stand up and be counted, over and over.
