I'm really struggling tonight. I really really dislike where our country is going politically. I can't help but remember the hope and euphoria I felt in 2008. I felt like if Mitt Romney had been elected the world would be over...oh how naive I was. The news of Justice Kennedy's retirement is making me feel deeply sad and helpless. This is the ultra conservatives time load the court. It will set back rights for women, minorities and anyone not a straight white man by decades. Goodbye Roe v. Wade. Goodbye marriage equality. Goodbye civil right. I feel helpless and sick. How do you focus on the day to day or even care when the world around you is falling apart? and there is literally nothing I can do. The republicans will force through a conservative justice by November. They have the majority and they will. and I don't know how to keep on going with this feeling.
