ok, i'll admit it... i'm frightened...
the amount of jaw-dropping things that have come out about the r's over the past 4 1/2 years is staggering and, as each one emerges that's uglier and more damning than the one before, i've told myself, "damn, if THIS doesn't bring down their stinkin' house of cards, NOTHING will..." but nooooooo... and here we sit, outraged over the revelation du jour, hoping that THIS one will be the one...
i've experienced a mental and emotional shift recently... i am past outrage... now, i'm just plain scared... if, for instance, and god forbid, even one federal judge was assassinated, things could go one of two ways... either we, as a country, would be shocked back to reality and start exorcising some of the dangerous, radical elements that seem to be emerging from the woodwork or, and this is almost too chilling to contemplate, a firestorm would be unleashed...
what would that "firestorm" look like...? i hesitate to speculate but certain things come to mind, among them martial law and civil war... i don't wanna see any of that come to pass but i sure as hell don't wanna be around if hell actually freezes over and that's how things evolve...
