I haven't cried like this in weeks.

I am ashamed to be a member of the human race after that mess. Fuck you, Tea Baggers. Even Ayn Rand wasn't this heartless, and she was a fucking crazy Russian.

(I had forgotten you migrated here and just thought you went underground on LJ. I was actually thinking the other day of sending you a PM to see if you were doing OK.)

What people think in private is their own business - since I can't know it and can't change it (do I look like Charles Xavier?) - but when they elect to share their horribly cruel and base sentiments publicly, and in a supposed respectable venue such as a televised political debate, I have free rein to judge them. I was horrified and angered by those shouts of "YEAH!" in the crowd. (Or, as Jon Stewart said, "I hope those people who were yelling 'LET THE MOTHERFUCKER DIE!' turned to the person next to them and asked, 'We're still talking about poker, right?'")
