+|content=I don’t make it a secret that I don’t like the right wing calling names &amp; mocking. I don’t like it when the left calls my friends in the '''loyal opposition''' idiotic names. But I hate it no less when it comes at me from the right. I’m sorry so many of you think it’s a hoot. It isn’t.

+|content=Note: Many will claim that their supreme court nominees were unfairly blocked. I agree with that generally. But I agree with that on both sides.
+If you want to go back to civility, decency and '''loyal opposition''', I'm w/ you. If you want to pretend it was all on one side, you've lost me and I have better things to do today.

+|content=You aren't signed up for Democracy if you think government should be dismantled each time you lose,  yet must be revered whenever you win. That's just being an ass.
+This court may be accused of overstepping. As the Warren court was once. Think about it.
+Moral: Don't be an ass.

+|content=I’m not in any way shape or form attached to the Democratic Party. Emotionally. spiritually, or otherwise.
+America needs *two or more* parties of '''loyal opposition''' with mostly shared values of merit, decency, opportunity, freedom, civility, common sense, common purpose, family, self-defense and self-restraint.
+Right now I see zero. Not two.  Not one. But zero. If you want to build new ones, I’m all ears.

+|content=Folks are always confused why the Democratic Party is my party.
+Why doesn’t John Wick just get a new dog?
+Why doesn’t Ulysses find a wife with fewer suitors?
+Why doesn’t Israel move to Beverly Hills?
+Why doesn’t Shackleton accept reality?
+Why does Shifu train a Panda?

+|content=I don’t get it.
+Do you want every last one of us who sees the madness to be driven out of your '''loyal opposition''' party? Really??
+I don’t like bullies. I don’t like cowards who bully in groups. I don’t like psychopaths who wander around wearing the robes of authority and wisdom.

+|content=Not every liberal is a commie. Not every progressive is a revolutionary. Not everyone who wants life to be fairer for working families is a Bolshevik.
+If the psychopathic left wants my pro-market, pro-merit, pro-free speech progressive sliver, they will have to come and take it. And then we will see. I don’t love my odds, but you aren’t making my life any easier by lobbing insults as if I’m too dumb to know what I’m up against. I’d rather you ask: “How can we help?”. But you do you.
+I’m damn proud of what is left of my sliver of the Left. And you on the right have come around to appreciate a lot of what we accomplished together as '''loyal constructive opposition''' to each other over the years.
+Ask yourself if you are better off with one more “Why I left the Left.” article.
+I’d settle for “Thank you.” and a little help and encouragement given the fire from the DNC party leaders and character assassins. But…y’know…suit yourselves. If you wanna help the psychos that’s your call. Go Dodger Blue!
+Ain’t freedom grand. That’s America to me. 🙏
