What is this, day 13 or day 14 of our national nightmare?
Honestly, it's been a blur.
How are you doing?
I don't know many people who don't feel like they're losing their minds these days.
It's difficult to follow the torrent of bad news, but if you are anything like me, you know we can't afford to turn away.
Disengaging won't make it go away and has never been so dangerous.
That said, we can't take our mental health for granted.
How can we stay engaged and not drive ourselves batty?
Empower yourself!
Take the rage, the sorrow, the frustration you are feeling and channel it into power.
We're never so powerful as we are when we band together, and frankly, it's a relief to engage in a struggle when you know you're not alone.
I've said this on the show many times since November, but I'll say it again.
Our political situation is in many ways more dire than under Bush, but the one thing in our favor is that we're not nearly as isolated.
A vast majority of Americans are with us in thinking we have already gone off the rails.
We've compiled a list of ways for you to get involved.
This list is still growing, and we'll keep compiling, so consider it a work in progress.
In the meantime, GET INVOLVED!
Protest, run for office, talk to your neighbors, take over your local Democratic Party.
Do something!
It will make you feel better, and it will likely make things better.
Hang in there!
Sam
