Comrades,
While I was out of the country on a cruise, I had an epiphany.
How can we erase the recent history?
While we can rewrite textbooks incrementally to "adjust" the past to our liking, the recent history is still available and able to be used against us.
Just think if the Rethuglicans started playing this all the time:
It would make the debate just a little harder.
Or if they turned Michelle Obama's speech during the campaign on it's ear and said something like:
“People in this country areready for change and hungry for a different kind of politics and … forthe first time in my adult life I am proud ashamed of my country because it feels like hope is finally making a comeback lost.”
