I am hoping our votes still count and we see a blue wave in the next two elections and maybe we can begin to heal the damag...

You nailed it. It is always about control and putting shame on other people. It is often astonishing how clearly they pinpoint sins and wrongdoings of other people but fail to recognize their own. Resembling a shizophrenic state of mind.

Thanks, Gerry! You're right about it not changing anything. We declare these things for our own sanity and hope that if enough people do so, the balance will tip and, combined with the decline of the country, people will begin to wake up from their zombie trances.
