Even more than their narrow-minded ideas, republicans love money and profits. This is where right-minded people must attack now. Not to change their minds (impossible--have you ever tried to hold a discussion with one?), but to wither them away.

Stop doing business with republicans. Period. Turn their bottom line red. Put them out of business. Let them find out what needing help is like.

For starts, this generally means all big businesses--they are almost all led by republicans making every last dime from you they can squeeze out. Your supermarket, stock broker, bank, credit cards, delivery services, cable provider, etc. ad nauseum.

It often means small businesses as well--butcher, green grocer, hair stylist or barber. Ask the proprietor who they voted for in November. If they voted republican, bid them goodbye.

This is a golden opportunity time for new democratic entrepreneurs and a resurgence of a spirit of community and concern for our fellow man.

Find small and caring businesses--preferably without stockholders. Give them your trade. Yup, it will mean some sacrifices but not for long if we all stick together. It will get the hopelessly self-serving and self-righteous among us out of our lives.

Have hope. As we have done so often, we chose a dullard for our candidate for president. There are brilliant and charismatic leaders of the liberal cause out there. Let's make the right choice next time and not let the political machine choose for us.

Until then, hunker down. Make some sacrifices. Get spouters of the old testament out of government. Make America worthy of being proud again.

Ciao,
