The LITD Election Day post

Vote for individual sovereignty, not collectivism.

Vote for unwavering adherence to the intent of the Constitution's framers, not some notion that it is a "living document."

Vote for people and businesses keeping their own money, not redistribution.

Vote for an understanding of what rights actually are, not the insidious notion that health care, a job, "affordable" housing and "clean" air are somehow rights.

Vote for normal-people forms of energy, like oil, coal, natural gas and nuclear power, not play-like forms such as wind and solar power, which need government subsidies to be "viable."

Vote for the understanding that all of humankind had until five minutes ago that there are only two genders, not the insane notion that gender is fluid, or an abstract construct.

Vote for the understanding that all of humankind had until five minutes ago that marriage is defined as the lifelong union of a woman and a man.

Vote for religious freedom, not government-coerced sin.

Vote for national sovereignty and the rule of law, not rendering borders meaningless.

Vote for a foreign policy based on affinity with countries that, at least mostly, share our values and resolute opposition to America's enemies.

Vote principles. Do not be motivated by tribalism.

  2. vote for a Republican this mid-term means, first and foremost, a vote for Donald J. Trump--the brashest, dumbest, most arrogant adulterer to ever sully the executive office. It's a vote for nuclear proliferation, a vote for international cacophony & the end of the liberal world order in place since World War II; it's a vote for the Military-Industrial Complex & World War III, a vote for continuing the federal Drug War, a vote for corporate cronyism, a vote for padding your income tax return (why hasn't Trump released his as all prior Presidents did?), a vote for cutting Social Security & Medicare and for terming all social insurance programs socialism, a vote for fear and loathing of "the other." And finally, a vote for a hot poker up the ass for the next 2 years sounds preferable....

  3. It is true that this election will do nothing to tame him, one way or the other.

  4. "The right speaks with gratitude for a White House dream realized.

    “We believe he’s sent from God,” Kathy Kiely, 67, said of Mr. Trump from a mall food court in Prescott, Ariz., “to bring us back to where we used to be, and where we can be.”

  5. Weird and very prevalent amongst the Christian right as you surely realize. Trump has run afoul of many caring Catholics with his near Nazi immigration stance.

  6. The new house majority is going to seize Trump's tax records. Bravissimo!

  7. Your fearful leader who does so many things you like shows signs or ramping up his bullying today. He's berated 2 new people to their face and fired his once loyal attorney general. It looks like it is going to be a tumultuous 2 years for our country and the world.
