Today's MOZEN: MAD AS HELL

F LoBuono

There are few absolutes in life; death and taxes come immediately to mind for most of us. Personally, I would add that the Yankees will always be better than the Mets to that short list. And, racists are to be condemned whenever and wherever they are encountered. There is NO middle ground, debatable points, or compromise here. Either you are a racist or you are not. And, it's not sufficient to just say that you don't support racism. That ain't good enough. You must CONDEMN it with every fiber of your being.

A recent tweet by the President in reference to 4 Democratic Congresswoman to, in essence, "go back to the shit hole countries they came from", despite the fact the 3 of the 4 were born here and the 4th is a naturalized citizen, reeks of racism. I don't give a shit how he and the Republican lackeys who blindly support him spin it, that statement is as deplorable as it is pathetic. In a recent vote on the House floor to censure the President for his racist comments, only 4 of 191 Republicans voted in favor of resolution. That's 7.4%. Shame on them. By the way, every Democrat voted in favor of censure.

One might understand how virtually the entire Republican party licks his boots - that's their job as I see it. They are all a bunch of spineless jellyfish anyway. Their continued blind support of his abhorrent tactics is ample evidence of their cowardice. It's even gone beyond mere party loyalty. He seems to have a Svengali-like hold on their very souls.

However, it's the person on the street who continues to fanatically support a man whose M.O. is to bully, intimidate, castigate, and obliterate everyone who may stand in his way. And, the only reasonable explanation is that they feel exactly the same way about their own lives and that of others as he does.

It's deplorable.

So, make a choice here. You can be a sycophant and continue to make excuses for his boorish behavior. Or, you can stand up like a man - or, woman - and scream NO MORE. I'M MAD AS HELL AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE.

If you don't, you're as lost as he is . . .
