Sadly, this wonderful soliloquy is only a television script. Sadly, we have so very few progressive politicians willing to take such a stand. Sadly, the behavior and stance of the other actors in this scene is what we are experiencing in this country as reality. Im an old man. I was taught history and civics in school and though I wasnt that good of a student, I remember it and I know the adage about repeating history not learned. People want to believe that they are free. They want to believe that they live in the land of opportunity. They want to be the greatest people on earth. Fantasies all - like winning the lottery or raising genius kids, or being married to a model, living in a mansion - all fantasies. And then people see that their reality doesnt meet their fantasy and they become cynical. All politicians are crooked. All poor people are on crack. All liberals are commies. Jesus saves. Good guys with guns. Right now Im depressed, but Ill recover. After all Im an old George McGovern Democrat.
