I despair. If, in the face of such damning evidence, we can't even make HIM pay, then how the hell are we supposed to purge the Congress of his venal, lickspittle accomplices and toadies? Voting against them in TWO YEARS is not enough. Two years in which they do further damage. Two years in which they collect their generous salaries and enjoy their all-encompassing health care, while they meet for lunch at their clubs and play golf and send their children to expensive private schools—as a good percentage of the rest of the country goes hungry and dies. Our country has turned into France before the Revolution. But the only revolution we have seen was in favor of the dictators.
My art today expresses my mood. To respect everyone's finer feelings, I will just call it "Mad." It started out as kind of a joke, but after the verdict arrived, it was all too real. I am disgusted, demoralized, depressed...MAD.
