OMG America.....What Have You Done?

     I stuck with it to the bitter end last night....and bitter it was.....and since that time have been trying to narrow my long list of emotions....to one.    Oh yes there was disappointment, disbelief, anger and sadness, but tossin' and turnin' in my bed from about 1 a.m. to nearly 5 a.m.......the one emotion I've settled on is "embarrassment"......embarrassment for Uncle Sam....and embarassement for the millions of Americans who believe they did the right thing.    Half the voters know full well what happened election day was a huge mistake.  It was a mistake four years ago.....though understandable....but a giant mistake this year and that's not understandable in the least.   We've all been embarrassed at some point in our lives, maybe by our own actions, maybe by our children's actions, friends have embarrassed us, maybe even our parents embarrassed us at some point.   That's OK, we got over it.   Having said that I don't have any qualms about saying I'm embarrassed by what the American voters did last night.   What could you be thinking?   Well this one is different.   The path that Obamunism has this country on right now is wrong and I (plus half the voters in this country) will be embarrassed about it for a long time.........I mean a long time.    My reality is, (not a regret) I probably won't live long enough to fully understand all the realities of the new "normal" in this country.....but some of you will....and believe me it's not what Uncle Sam and the Founding Fathers had in mind.

     Meantime, back to the question at the top of the page;  yes I'm kinda sad, and I'm certainly disappointed, but my anger is gone, my disbelief is now reality and the only answer left to the question "OMG America...What Have You Done" is...you embarrassed your Uncle!!
