when white people started thinking maybe they weren't automatically at the top of the food chain

when men weren't always men and women weren't always women, and those who were neither refused to stay out of sight in the closet

when money couldn't buy you whatever you wanted

when "NO" didn't mean shit

[EDIT: AHH SHIT, i GOT MY 'MURRICA'S MIXED UP - I MEANT "WHEN "NO" STARTED MEANIN' "NO"... BIDEN MUSTA MIXED ME UP....][/EDIT]

when Sunday was only for going to church and getting a pass for the other six

yep, them was the days.....

Make America Great Again was/is a brilliant slogan....now everyone with a bias, hatred, misguided excuse had a place they could join.....and it was feverish...and america got to look at itself in the mirror to see who we really were.....bigoted, hateful, intolerant, pompous assholes....well, at least half of us......Karl Rove was the strategist that I recall began a march to name things that would be the opposite of what they really wanted, and since then think-tanks spend a great deal of time debating what name will be the most misleading....

I think that was about the time Rush Limbaugh started belching out air pollution, and house speaker Newt Gingrich introduced his "Contract for America".... though even then I thought he'd meant "on".... the birth of the Tea Party... but I never imagined how acceptable & institutionalized naked bigotry would become...
