I’m a little torn about this…

Well…I’m sure you’ve read by now that Sarah Huckabee Sanders and her family were turned away from a restaurant in Virginia late last week as a matter of conscience by the owner, and my first reaction to that was that it served her right for being the vicious, racist liar that she is, but on second thought those of us on the left are supposed to be better than that…I realize the damage that Sanders and trump and their cronies are doing to this country but if we keep this up, we are no better than they are….and by any objective measure we are…we care about people, we care about everyone in this country, not just the rich or people who voted for us…we care about women and their continued struggle for equality and to control their own bodies…we care about fairness and good schools and equality for all of the people in this country…we care about the rule of law and revere our constitution and the right to vote. All of us are immigrants or have them in our backgrounds and we on the left understand that it is our duty to help others when they need it and to keep families that need our help together….and that brings me to the golden rule…probably the one thing that informs my moral underpinnings..”do unto others as you would have them do to you” …kicking even bad people out of a restaurant for their political views and actions is not who we are and it certainly doesn’t meet the golden rule…we need to be better…
