Ok y’all I have a lot to unpack so get ready. Never in my life have I given more thought to or have been more engaged in politics than I have with in the last two years. I should NOT have to explain why that is. First, a confession: I used to be one of those voters who only voted during Presidential elections. That stops now. I have never been more disgusted, more angry, more confused and more disillusioned with our government than I am right now. Recent events seem like something straight out of “Scandal” or “House of Cards” which is NOT a good thing. I believe or hope at least, that most of the GOP members know that the current person in charge of running our country is an idiot. I know that a lot of them stand by him for the purpose of “saving face” and showing a unified party. It is irresponsible. These senators that have recently agreed to allow yet ANOTHER Supreme Court nominee hold a life time appointment on the highest court in the land DESPITE that nominee’s questionable ethics is deplorable but not at all surprising. Let me also say that’s time to amend this lifetime appointment crap. Hell, even the President can only serve two terms. We all knew that whether or not the FBI conducted an investigation or not, that Kavanaugh was going to be sworn in. What I’d like to know is why such the hard push on THIS man? Why not nominate someone else who had less “baggage?”  Sounds me to me like some wheeling’ and dealin’ behind closed doors. Like there were some promises made or favors owed type of situation. It was a circus. On NOVEMBER 6, 2018 we must show up and show out, it’s as simple as that, and not just because of the Kavanaugh situation. Look at all the bullshit that has taken place with in the last two years.  It still blows my mind. A few weeks ago, Governor Tom Wolf, Senator Bob Casey and President Barack Obama, held a rally (in North Philly no less) to stress the importance of the upcoming mid-term elections and I was lucky enough to be in the audience.  I could feel the sense of urgency. We are in a state of emergency. Philly is a majority Democratic city so really no worry there, but the suburbs? That may be a different story. Let me stress that I am no political science expert or authority on the subject. I just know that something has to change. If you’re not registered to vote, DO IT. The deadline is October 9th. If you’ve never voted during a mid-term election, DO IT NOW! There is soooo much more I want to say but I haven’t figured out the best way to present it just yet. This is your wake up call.
