Legitimate Political Discourse, my ass.

Today I am grieving on multiple fronts. 

Because today I also mourn for our country.

This is somewhat to be expected, but since I am actively grieving (see Monday's post) it's only natural that sadness, depression and hopelessness, will find its way into my blog posts. 

Who knows, it may actually improve my writing? Doubtful.

Oh, you didn't think I'd stop posting about the pathetic putrid behavior of what used to be the Republican Party, the GOP, Grand Old unPatriots.) Last week while censuring Liz Cheney and Adam Kinziger, two outrageously conservative politicians I actually respect, the RNC characterized the Insurrection of January 6th as "Legitimate Political Discourse."

This, despite the fact that more than a dozen high level Oath Keepers and other assorted Neo Nazi militias, have been charged with Seditious Conspiracy.

Singling out Cheney and Kinzinger is more than ironic coming from the folks on the Right Side of the aisle who blow hard and embarrass themselves with talk of "Cancel Culture." Often followed by a string of diatribes and threats to anyone who dare criticize 'Murica and point out the true meaning of freedom and liberty and the Constitution.

Perhaps the real purpose was to distract from the multiplicity of crimes committed by their orange-topped  Fuhrer, including:

* his plans to seize the Voting Machines (if that phrase doesn't scare you it should)

* strong arm VP Pence to committing a Constitutional crime

* falsify certificates for "alternate electors"

* delay the certification of all the electoral votes by inciting an Insurrection

* threaten state officials to "find" him 11,870 votes

* finance multiple fraudulent vote recounts (producing no evidence of massive fraud)

* actively denigrate our democracy by taking a sledgehammer to our political system

The damage this feckless Cockwomble  has incurred is incalculable. 

Suffice it to say, his last breath of oxygen will be the first time the country gets to exhale.
