"The Atticus Circle" about Prop 8

[Are_grits_groceries]

As a parent you eventually come to accept that one day your children and family members will have to continue on without you. And you spend much of your life thinking that you are preparing them for that moment only to realize that you are really just preparing yourself. Have I left them with a brighter future and a better world? You certainly hope so and knowing so makes each day a little easier. So imagine my shock when about 8 years ago the village idiot was suddenly running the show. Panic set in. My God what if I go tomorrow and that jackass screws things up and suddenly my children and grandchildren are left to clean up the mess.

Folks, I may not be here next time so I want you to remember this. You really should strive for a Presidential nominee who is smarter than you… someone who understands you but doesn’t necessarily need to have a beer with you. Strive for a Renaisance man… someone who knows that Walt Whitman wasn’t a guy who made chocolate candy. And a good rule of thumb from this point forward: someone who fully understands that the Flintstones isn’t a documentary.
