One Week Away

GUT CHECK

What does it say about us

when 74 million honest and faithful citizens

place trust in a con man they must know

in their hearts to be a heartless liar?

And then what does it say about us

in this crumbling fortress of democracy  

that half the country will vote for a mercenary

who would sell out our sacred Constitution?

And next, what does it say about us,

a nation of courageous warriors

where so-called patriots salute

a five-time unrepentant draft dodger?

And after that, what does it say about us,

the heirs of visionary American revolutionaries,

falling in lockstep with a thin-skinned bully

who admires tyrants, dictators, and thugs?

And now what does it say about us

that so many women cheer on an adulterer,

a sexual predator who scorns every woman

that demands rights over her own body?

And finally, what does it say about us,

so many pious frauds bowing down

before a son of perdition (2 John 7;

2 Thessalonians 2; Matthew 24:24)?

Now is there anything else we need to know?
