Somebody reminded me of this I wrote in sometime around 1995ish, it was the height of the conservative hegemony with the contract on the Clintons led by Newt , Rush and Tom DeLay. With these Town Hall shouting matches these days it seems to apply again. You know it doesn’t seem to matter if they are in or out of power, or favor… Win or lose they are the obnoxious, hate filled, selfish liars they cannot help but be. And there is no stopping them
Dear John,
I want to let you know our relationship is over. Though I am not moving
to New Zealand, or dropping out like Mr. Leary before
me, I am disengaging. Perhaps there is some good in you somewhere, but
I can’t seem to get past your ever darkening heart to unearth it. We
find ourselves with less common ground as the years go by, I cannot
make the jump to the dark side no matter how popular or emotionally
satisfying it may be.We no longer enjoy any serious communication. Any issue we discuss
requiring even the least amount of intellectual consideration always
ends with you either waving your flag, intoning the Lord, wanting to
bomb someone, delighting in executions, advocating physical punishment
and blaming everything on some poor woman of color with a bad kid on
the other side of town or the other side of the world. The water you
play in is just too shallow, two warm and too yellow for me. This has
been building for quite some time now, a generation of disappointment
creating a sadness within that only grows deeper whenever we talk. I
can’t even say I wish you well.Goodbye, Rack Jite
One more thing I am wondering about…
Has "socialist" replaced the word "black"?
