A repost, slightly amended tonight, originally from September 1, 2016, before this preposterous buffoon was elected to the United States presidency, and every single one of you Republicans have done nothing but commit acts of complacency under the guise of solemn embarrassment and self-preservation. Shame on you. -

If you'll forgive my descent into the vernacular, and even if you won't - once and for all, enough. Enough already. Republicans, ignorant, complacent, conservative eunuchs and lemmings -  Shut. Your fucking. Mouths.

I dare anyone who's still considering or even "on the fence" about this ridiculous party, its politicians and candidates, and its overall preposterous example of the greatness of America and the progress of mankind to justify their indefensible position. It is no longer a sufficient statement to make that one should participate in the American democratic process by voting; with ridiculous candidates like these, with every incumbent or challenging Republican candidate, every vote in his or her favor is dangerous, destructive, wasteful, and wrong. Yes, wrong.

This is not merely my own personal diatribe. Take into account everything you know and have witnessed so far. There are other choices. I used to say I don't care who you vote for, but if you insist on voting for these ridiculous candidates from this disgraceful party, you are wrong. Plain, fucking wrong. You're facilitating the continued degradation of American public policy and impairing the potential of our societal growth and, should these ridiculous campaigns succeed in achieving this ridiculous party's candidates' elections, I further dare you to hold your head high.

If you find my words this morning, indeed me, pompous, divisive, and rambling, you're welcome to find them so, just as you're welcome to support this ridiculous party. As much as I continue to value the friendships I've unworthily been granted by you all these years, it would be easier for me to abandon them than to believe you'd cast a wrong, yes, wrong vote.

There is a right way to vote. There are correct people for whom to vote. There are correct issues to support, propositions that support people, not party lines.

No, I'm not wrong.
