I have a large group of close family members who are pretty right-wing reactionary: Pro-pro-pro gun, anti-anti-anti government. I remember when I used to think it was a hoot when they said that they would be ready for the day that the people of this country rebelled against their political leaders.

I don’t laugh so much anymore.

I do have to say, my one bright spot is here: www.jeffersonhour.org

I listen to Clay’s broadcasts regularly and hold ‘salons’ on a monthly basis to talk political/artistic/social talk with a group of 10-20 of my friends. We are from all over the map politically, but we manage to get along when it comes to discussing the things that ail this country.

That alone should scare a group of leaders that seem to depend on our divided nature to keep us in line.
