I lived through Nixon and Spiro the Angry Crook. I lived through Raygun and Bush the First. I lived through Bush the Idiot and the Dark Lord. During DUHbya’s Reign of Error, I was told “Get over it!” Way back in ‘68, the conservative line was “America: Love it or Leave it!” I’ll be a touch nicer to you than you were to me: don’t go if you can just calm down a bit. Otherwise, “Get over it!”

During all those dark, miserable years, I never thought America was actually doomed by the idiots in charge or the goons they commanded. You are welcome to despise Obama and the majority that elected him. You are not welcome to incite panic and bloodshed. Calm down. Get over it.
