In times of old, The Furies protected Mother Right. If a mother (or any woman) was harmed, The Furies swooped down and took their vengeance. They were one of the last vestiges of a world that existed before the patriarchy. When we feel righteous anger, it is The Furies who are calling out to us to make what is wrong right again.

No Words 

I'm afraid I have no words of comfort, anger, or frustration. I don't understand what happened. I had more faith in the American people. Obviously I was wrong. Now we'll need time to figure out what we do next. I don't know if I want to live around people who are this stupid or this wrong—or both. I'm stunned. I'm worried about the future of this country and the rest of the world. How can the people of this country be so out of step with the rest of the planet. We had people over to our house to watch the returns, plus I was getting updates from friends and family around the country, and we kept asking, "Who are these people who are voting for Bush?"

American people, apparently.

I'll get back with you when I have some perspective on this.

Carry on, my wayward friends.
