Not Disappeared, Yet

So, not quite a year since my last post. I hope everyone’s having a good year, though with the convicted orange buffoon ruining the country, I suspect not everyone is. Still, it’s a worthy wish, and I lay it on you, hopeful that you’re getting by.

In honor of the convicted orange buffoon ruining the country, I sent the following message to both my Senators (in spite of them voting for Rubio) and my Representative:

Topic: Other

Subject: Action to save the United States



Message Text:


Unfortunately, "Save the United States" is not one of the suggested Topics, hence I chose Other.

When Trump decides he's actually king instead of just raping and pillaging, what are you going to do about it?

My vote may not matter then, but without some useful definitive action, I'll be looking elsewhere.

Your personal vendettas don't seem to carry much weight when the government is being dismantled like White Stadium in Boston. Or the World Trade Center on 9-11. You do recall those things, and I hope you can see the parallel. Except for first responders rushing in to help. Not much of that going on.

I'll be watching with hope, though Democrats haven't covered themselves with glory in the past month. Look at the confirmed Cabinet positions for my proof.

Thank you for listening and taking some action.

 So far, auto-responses from two of the three, consistent with other messages I've sent. While I do have two nickels to rub together, I don't have enough money to be noticed in the political quagmire Citizens United has bequeathed us, and push comes to shove, my wife and kids can use those nickels to get away (assuming that fits their plans, too).

Without money to make a difference, Ben Cohen of The Daily Banter suggests writing congresss critters to protest what's going on, so I'm trying that approach. Feel free to follow along, if you will. Perhaps President's Day will once again be something to celebrate. Or maybe we'll all hang the flag upside down on Flag Day.
