Its what the Republicans do all day long to other Republicans, other Americans and other Homo Sapiens.


Its what the Republicans want us to do.


I refuse to accede to the Republicans machinations and join in recriminations against any Democrat. There are legions of Republicans and many Democrats who take up for us slackers on the issue and have developed a talent for it after extensive practice.

1. Republicans do have their legions.
It is an unfortunate fact that there is good and bad in everyone, so you have to use reason also and your heart to find what you think is best.

Suicide is really dumb, although what is worse is those that create hopelessness and strife to drive people to such despair.
