This is a new day folks. Please make a resolution to find and focus on Common Ground. WE agree far more than we disagree in spite of what the Citizen's United Ads have tried to convince you.
You're right, of course. The main freedoms - speech, dissent, voting - are still alive. So long as those remain, we are not without hope, no matter who is in office today.
I agree wholeheartedly. I have been dismayed today by the vitriol I have seen on Facebook, from people I thought I knew. It goes to show that you never really know a person as well as you think.
I don't think that compromise is in their vocabulary...the Democrats are to far left and the Republicans are to far right. There is no middle ground any more.
I read John 12:40 this morning and I see our government in a nutshell.
Having just accidentally dipped a toe in a very nasty blog, I worry that we have nothing in common. I choose to believe you. Because the other is not good for my heart.
My concession speech is on the sidebar of my blog today.

That's right. I appreciated this sentiment in both Romney's concession speech, and Obama's acceptance: work together.
ReplyDeleteYes! Let's all get our heads out of our politics long enough to do the actual work together.

ReplyDeleteI don't think that willl ever happen. It is far too late now...
ReplyDeleteHear hear! Now is the time for the US to unite!
ReplyDeleteIt has been a hard fight. I am not in a conciliatory mood at this point.

So pledged. Since we are a two-party house, I always have to work at this.
