Shouldn't you be proud to be an American?

Who is NOT talking about the election/results? I was glad election day was finally here, so we wouldn't hear the slandering anymore. Boy was I wrong!! There are some really sore losers, and some really sore winners. I have never paid as much attention to politics as I did this year, and I have seen nastiness from both democrats and republicans. I thought it would end after the decision was made, but oh it hasn't. At the end of the day, whether you think that this election was a "win" or a "loss" for America...be thankful that you have the right to have that opinion. Be thankful you have the right to cast your vote as you so choose. As a woman, it saddens me by the sheer number of people, especially women, who choose not to vote. We fought for that right, and I'm not only going to excercise that right so long as I live, I feel it is my duty to do so. No matter who is in office, it's tough times right now. At the end of the day, stand up and be proud that you are an American. I know I am.
