"People always say that I didn't give up my seat because I was tired, but that isn't true. I was not tired physically... No, the only tired I was, was tired of giving in."

With Steemit going through changes and being down last week, I was left to getting my social media fix from the usual suspects. OMFG!!!!
I'M FREAKIN TIRED!
I'm sure many of you in the US (and across the globe) have been tuning into the supreme court nomination hearings and know what I mean. Whether you believe the accusations against the nominee or not ( I do!) is besides the point.
Politicians are playing a dirty game and we will suffer the consequences. I may get a bit of backlash from the trolls but I honestly don't care. I'm a proud liberal and it's time to overhaul the entire government body.
When a man can sit in front of the nomination committee and lie about the simplest, easily fact checked things, he doesn't deserve to be on the highest court in the land. The partisanship he showed completely disqualifies him from being on the bench no matter what side of the political spectrum you find yourself on.
If you're willing to have a sensible discussion, then please comment and let's discuss civilly. I'm open to civil discourse but I'm not going to entertain the divide and conquer mentality for one iota of second.
Thanks for reading.
Peace!
