Well, I got a message that said I should introduce myself, so I guess I will...

61. Look at all the lurkers you've drawn from their "shadows"? You kin to the Pied Piper?

You've started, or for sure verified, something, I think. Welcome one and all. I apologize in advance for my trademark irascibility and am pleased to meet you. I've noticed some from Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia....Did I miss anybody? Hoping for Nebraska and even Kansas to enter the light, someday.

This miniature island of de-lurking reflects, I believe, that people have had enough of this ridiculous clamor from charlatans, fools and psychotics like Trump. Many having, long ago, lost patience of being force-fed obvious propaganda suggesting they'd better accept and tolerate the clamor in perpetuity or else. Most Americans, even in the red states, still believe in a federal government whose purpose is to strive toward the general welfare of the people as stated in the Constitution. They, and I, await, with impatience, the rebirth of a good government and re-establishment of a just society, which will arrive when we free the hope of problems logically solved by plans based on actual facts from the wasteland where it remains stranded, banished by escapees from justice in the Republican House, misled by a corrupt USSC majority and muted by the endless prating of a corporate media.

The US, the world's premier nation cannot tolerate rule by an extraordinarily large crop of village idiots (and half-witted Nazis) after next January. The planet needs us to be, unwaveringly, on the right side of history. If we aren't, there will not be a future.
