That, unlike the Republicans, who are willing to do whatever it takes no matter what, we'll likely lie down and accept defeat. Do you think there'll be a demand for a recount? Lawsuits to push this to the courts? Any of that? Nope. We'll just roll over and give up.

That's what pisses me off. THEY can play dirty and win, even though it's only to keep a few people rich, while WE have to play nice and lose, even though it's to keep thousands of people alive, and our rights protected, and our liberties intact, and the Supreme Court balanced, and etc., etc., etc.

I'm fucking sick of being nice. I'm sick of being part of a demographic that doesn't believe in playing the game to the fullest. I'm sick of being beaten by people who are more willing to plunge themselves into politics to the fullest extent. It's completely fucking pathetic.

That's how I feel this morning. Angry and fed up. This country is pathetic. We're ruled by warmongering rich assholes, and we think sticking our little ballots in the box is enough to stop it. Well, surprise. It isn't.



The next couple of years is going to be interesting, as the Chinese would say.
