Democrats, we have only ourselves to blame for 2016.
We laid our swords down, because they pleaded to us.
"Lay your swords down, for the good of Our Country."
Democrats do not pretend to have hearts. We live by them.
We followed hearts. We agreed to peace.
We swallowed the bitterness, and hoped for the best.
Since 2001, we have been caught up in a nightmare.
We laid our swords down to people who have no love for Our Country.
We had our chance to battle monsters in 2001.
We did not.
"Al Gore, who won the national vote by more than 300,000 ballots, will become only the fourth presidential candidate to win the popular vote but succumb to a loss in the electoral college."
We did not have a candidate that could surpass Gore.
What Ralph Nader's motives were, is a mystery.
John F. Kennedy Jr. was the last of the Democrats with charisma.
American politics had become so poisonous, John F. Kennedy Jr. disappeared.
The America that was worthy of admiration disappeared with him.
The loyal opposition was never trustworthy, honorable, or loyal.
Jack Abramoff, Ralph Reed, Dick Cheney, Karl Rove and Todd Akin were our punishments for betraying our gut reactions.
We heard the women sobbing in despair, and we did not help.
Napoléon Bonaparte, a man produced by the world in which he lived.
The Monster, Mr. HWMNBN, a man produced by the world in which he lives.
This is happening because we did not come to the aid of our country.
The swords that were laid down in peace, were used in a relentless slaughter of truth, beauty, and the best of everything about Our Country, by our enemies.
