We
are once again going through the ritual of the right where we form a
circle, face the center and hear, “Ready, Aim, Fire”.
We
are still eating our own. We accuse the left of doing that. We are
just as guilty. I am not talking about forcing people out of
congress because of their disgusting behavior. That is something we
need more of. I am not talking about releasing the Epstein files.
If there are Republicans on the list and they actually did something
besides be at the same party or in the same town, then they need to
be examined and meet justice. I am talking about taking every little
wobble or variation and demanding that they leave the movement.
It
is not a choice between perfection and perfidy. We need to
understand that. There will never be a utopia and Jesus was the only
perfect person to walk the earth. It always amazes me the people who
say they would never vote for Trump because of mean tweets and he was
running against someone who had nothing to recommend them. In Texas
I am hearing the same thing about Ken Paxton. He is not perfect but
his opponent should be embarrassed to be in the same election with
him. We need to grow up. We will never have a choice between
totally good and totally bad. It will always be a decision between
better and unacceptable.
It is time to embrace the future
and vote like responsible citizens electing someone to represent us
and not elevating them to sainthood.
