I don't know when I've seen an election season so filled with this much hatred and plain old mean-spirited lies. I don't care how you're registered. But north, south, east, west, Republican, Democrat, whether you're one of the Haves or one of the Have-Nots, a brand new citizen or someone whose people came over on the Mayflower, we're all Americans. When we go into our polling places over the next couple of weeks, could we all just take a deep breath and think about others for a change before we mark our ballots? This poster by John Kinsey expresses what I think so many of us are feeling (and my thanks to The Occasional Bitch website for sharing it.)
