Come Wednesday Morning, We'll Be Fine...

and almost everyone will realize that, in spite of the right wing's freakout over what is a non-issue, life will persevere.

What won't happen:
The socialists or communists will not have overrun the US government and replaced everything, including the Constitution on a whim.

The 1st session of the 117th Congress will not dissolve into anarchy, but there may be tears shed.

We will not have, as predicted by the GOP, been raped, murdered, robbed, pillaged or brainwashed.

What will happen:
It will be another Wednesday, with some cold & snow in the northern & elevated parts of the nation.

The loud cable TV pundits will try to explain why their predictions failed to materialize.

Voters will now, take better stock of our elections, paying better attention to the naysayers and disputers on the right


I will get up, grind some fresh coffee beans and decide what I'll do for another day of my retirement.
Basically, Wednesday will be like most others; simple, predictable and pretty much safe & secure.

Contrary to just about every Republican and right-wing TV pundit...

I am not dead, or suddenly a communist, or murdered, raped and the US dollar is not worthless.

I feel exceptional today. Thanks in great part to the rural African-American Georgia voters who made America's Wednesday 'peachy'.

Congratulations to the first African-American US Senator from Georgia.

SENATOR-ELECT, The Right Reverend, RAPHAEL WARNOCK
