The Dawning of the Age of Pisces?

We keep hearing echoes of the sixties now that Obama has been elected. Seems to me though that rather than Aquarius, this country is best represented by Pisces - a pair of fishes swimming in opposite directions. Half the people think we're finally coming out of the dark ages and the other half thinks we're doomed. I keep asking myself how two people can see the same news and come away with such diverse opinions. Not to mention how one person can hold two views that are diametrically opposed.

I read how everything bad that happened in the last eight years was set in motion by Bill Clinton. But the current collapse is all Obama's fault. Work that one out.

Hate crime is up since the election. School children are chanting "Assassinate Obama" - isn't that a pretty picture. Old beliefs die hard. People say "This is the South" as if that explains (and justifies) it. Although Long Island, where I grew up, is hardly the South but still has plenty of racism and bigotry.

The real problem with Bill Clinton was that he beat the Republicans when they were still up. All their attacking found plenty of fertile ground, even among the Centrists. Let's just hope that this time they've done enough damage to their image that their poison will only work on the ignorant.

Voting for Obama endangers your soul - no more Holy Communion for you!
