Read about the Shame Punishment of the Pilgrims. They didn't play around. You had to work for the good of the village or it would suffer destruction and no one would eat during the winter. Any behavior against the good of the town was scrutinized for crimes, and offenders would receive severe punishment.
Yet people today apologize for the lowly behavior of Republican leaders-- from the illegal lobbyists, sedition, to pedophiles, to genocide, to unjust wars, to wiretapping, torture camps and the destruction of the US economy so their friends could make money. Republicans get to talk to Americans as if they were toddlers needing instruction, and they take no feedback.
If America were a Pilgrim town, it would not survive the winter.
Shouldn't all citizens pull together to highlight these crimes of this Republican leadership, and punish the offenders instead attacking opponents, sweeping everything under the rug and blaming Democrats, "liberals" and teenagers?

Those are not crimes of the Republican 'leadership' any more than they are of the Democratic leadership. Republicans that are caught engaging in illegal/immoral activities are kicked out of Congress. Democrats that get caught are re-elected.

my girl said we could be twins.......i totally agree. this nation needs to pull together for the better......live together, love together, fight together, and agree on the next steps we take as a nation. But, the people in charge have turned our nation into an Autocratic nation, where you listen to one 'leader' as if he were a king or a god.
it's not right...i hope they buried our founding forefathers upside down, so when they turn over in their graves, they will at least be comfortable.

In the 1600's, whore teenagers couldn't get abortions, either.
Homosexuals would be killed.
War protesters would be hung as traitors.
I can go on. It sure was a good time back then.

They wouldn't do it now because for all their faults, they are WAY better than the America-hating dummycrats.
