To date, this is how the very few interactions I've had with Never Trumpers have gone, because I want to talk about the Befor...

brilliant!
Nice they got the flag at half mast for all the dead people. Support the troops and all that. Off camera: spare hospital cots, cleverly disguised as park benches, for those "survivors" who didn't get into Walter Reed before the Veteran's Administration budget ran out.
Lawn mowing at the grave sites arranged by an exclusive no-bid contract with Halliburton.
We're seriously fucked in this country.
powerful!!
ILE the bodies high at Austerlitz and Waterloo,
Shovel them under and let me work--
I am the grass; I cover all.
And pile them high at Gettysburg
And pile them high at Ypres and Verdun.
Shovel them under and let me work.
Two years, ten years, and passengers ask the conductor:
What place is this?
Where are we now?
I am the grass.
Let me work.

p.s. did you know that arlington national cemetary was originally lee's ancestral home? the union made it a graveyard as a "fuck you" move.
i'm thinkin' crawford. yeah, sounds about right, fucking crawford national. there's your legacy asshole.
And maybe the compound at Kennebunkport as a sanitarium for some of the wounded BG menitoned?

GREAT PIC, great ideas here in the comments! I like to click on the names of the comment leavers to see if they have blogs. Drifty's place attracts some really bright lefty's...that Sandburg poem is awsome.
Minstrel; good thoughts...
"Gardens of Stone"...in Crawford.
I could dig it.
minstrel,
Ya beat me to the Lee mention. Arlington was his wife's digs, though, not the ancestral home. Putting it there certainly did make a point, though. IIRC, there was a choice quote from somebody about the fate of her rose garden.
I have to disagree about Crawford, however. I wouldn't want to disgrace any American heroes by planting them in that cursed soil. Do you really want the families to have to deal with that? Kennebunkport, okay. Hell, that's really where the problem stems from anyway.
Crawford, or at least Bush's little corner of it needs to be turned into the National Animal Waste Lagoon, preferably while Georgie is living there.
Oh, and drifty, brilliant as ever.
like i'm not going to totally steal that picture... ;)
Good desktop wallpaper. Kind of hits you where it hurts.
