And I don't mean "vs. War", though I long for all our troops to be out of conflicts as well.
What I mean is Peace like in relaxation, calmness, lack of anxiety, trust.
What I mean is I long for a different President and a different political place to be.
I long for Twitter to be closed down--I don't want to know what he's thinking at 5 a.m, or ever.
I long for ugly nick-names to be outlawed. "Sleepy Joe" is ridiculous. Biden is one of the more animated people I see. Calling the Mayor of South Bend, Indiana (whose name I haven't quite managed to spell) "Alfred E. Newman" is more an insult to the President than to Mayor Pete.
I long for 'lies' to be called 'lies' again and not ignored and supported by Fox News.
Face it, I long for 'no-drama Obama' or even the second George Bush.
I just want to be a proud American and not be assaulted by non-sense day after day and worry if John Bolton is going to take us into another long, unwinnable war.
I want to be part of the world-wide-economy and not be in trade wars that hurt us.
I want people to quit complaining about how Game of Thrones ended. I liked the ending, thank you.
I want a Memorial Day dinner with my friends without any of us fretting about the future of the land we love.
Peace and quiet and common sense. That's what I want.
It doesn't seem outrageous to want that.
Peace and quiet and common sense.
Just that.
