Letter to Kellyanne Conway





Dear Sweet Kelllyanne Conway:

 A moment of your time, m'dear, before you begin snarking all the way to Capitol Hill. Your statement: "How about the fact that nobody liked your candidate? Or that people didn't connect with her? Or that you should have tried harder to get WHITE working class voters?

 Well…Facts are sometimes hard to face, aren't they?

      Fact: Donald Trump lost the Popular Vote…badly.  According to the latest numbers, Hillary will be the only candidate who has lost by the margin equalling ten winning Presidential Candidates without taking office. 
     Fact: People didn't connect with Trump-according to your definition. Exit Polls showed that even those who DID vote for him didn't think he was qualified to be Commander in Chief.
     Fact: Democratic Candidates try to reach ALL working class people-NOT just the WHITE working class voters. Seig Heil!

 Why did you make a point to specify WHITE working class? This isn't about race, is it? Look at the camera, straight on with a face shot, and say that you embrace ALL the working class-black, brown, Muslim, Latino….ALL working class voters. Just as you can say with a straight face that Trump respects women. -And the world laughs. The facts are that the vote was repressed, plus the e-mail/Comey letter and Russia/Wikileaks worked against the first female major party candidate in the history of the United States.

 Yes, there were things that the Clinton campaign should have done differently. But to lay the loss at the feet of Hillary Clinton's supposed lack of Popularity as a candidate is laughable. You have represented the LEAST likable candidate for President in the history of modern America. He is about to take the oath, God help us all. Learn to WIN Gracefully and stop being a 'sore winner'. It doesn't become you, dearie.

Are we even asking the right questions?

    What is this about really? Are we somehow conflating this withdrawal with the idea of America as a superpower?  Is it about American Exceptionalism and the idea that we have lost our innocence? Is this something that we will use to justify what we are doing in the world; where we are going, and what we want to be known for in the world? Just asking what we want to stand would be a good start in terms of questions going forward. This may be a conversation that needs to be had in the coming years. All of the talk,   and the hopes and aspirations were discussed and mapped out before being put into the small 21st Century online political group that was created in 2017. The thoughts & ideas came from a hopeful take on the dark reflections seen in the election of Trump in 2016. Are we a country and a people that are even capable of building a better tomorrow?   We need to be able to have this serious talk with Allies and others of good will;   T...

The Looming Tower is before us...

    The Looming Tower is the famous title of the book written about 9/11. Lots of reflections have taken place since that book was released.   What we have gained and what we lost has been reflected upon in great detail as we marked the 20 th Anniversary of 9/11 in this country.   The type of things we value were on display. Law enforcement heroes and firefighters who showed courage in the face of looming disaster were remembered and honored. The heroes of the doomed Pennsylvania flight who chose to take the plane down rather than allow the evil hijackers to assault the government were praised and lauded.   What we cherish was on full display.   How we learned to grieve is part of our legacy. The long road back to restore the pride of our New York skyline was another tale.   We even debated, in the tradition of Americans, how to remember the Towers and the legacy that they left to us. It was also a stark reminder of why we went to fight...
