Reconcilliation

I saw this posted in a comment section on another blog and thought it was so good. This poem was received in an email in 2004. Funny how it still applies.

——
In the spirit of reconciliation with Republican friends and neighbors, I offer the following poem…

The election is over, the results are now known.
The will of the people has clearly been shown.
We should show by our thoughts and our words and our deeds
That unity is just what our country now needs.
Let’s all get together. Let bitterness pass.
I’ll hug your elephant.
You kiss my ass.

(an unknown Democrat)

I'm off work for the next 5 days and I can't wait! After my online test tomorrow Ron and I are going to Dallas. It's been over 4 years since we took any kind of trip so I'm excited just to be going anywhere. As long as we don't discuss politics I think we are safe. We do pretty well most of the time but I know his republican blue butt is in a twinge right now so it can be a little testy. I'll work hard on my own self-control (since I can be a bit vocal) and we should do alright.
