we lose.

i slept last night in front of the tv, waking up from time to time as some new results came in. it was something of a nightmare.
americans have voted today in favor of morality, feelings, and beliefs, over and above their own self-interests. why? propaganda. or, in the nomenclature of this administration, “staying on message”. are they really terribly good at it? they really aren’t that good at all, as far as transparent lies go. but they are EFFECTIVE, as this election has proved. sadly, i think this reflects poorly on the majority of people in this country.
i only hope that the constitution and the treasury can withstand the next four years of abuse.
