More politics

I haven't been on here in awhile.  To be frank, I am really disgusted with how our country is going.  The hard right has grasp control and have wrapped themselves around our country like a huge monster with long tentacles.  Their goal is to tell you what to think, when to think it, and if it does not agree with their way of thinking or doing, to punish you for it.  It is a scary time.  Texas just voted Ted Cruz, a darling of this set, as the Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate.  I so hope Texans wake up and vote for the Democratic contender.  But I am really afraid they won't.  This is shades of the 1950's and McCarthy's red hunt, only this time it seems like it is the new Inquisition instead.  And what surprised me was that they voted for Ted Cruz.  Texas is really loyal to their own and Cruz was born in Canada to a Cuban father and a Texas woman.  So Cruz cannot ascend to the Presidency.  They will be going after our Constitution next.
