This column didn’t turn out the way I thought it would. When all the Repug senators walk out instead of applauding the confirmation of a highly qualified Black woman to the Supreme Court - that just showed me how very difficult it will be to elect a Democratic Congress this fall. There are plenty more just like them to KEEP that majority. NO we haven’t made that much progress. I read your details and descriptions but I’m still highly EMBARRASSED by these clearly racist senators trying to run this country. And yeah, I’m frightened bu our lack of progress. And now when they name-call, they add in pedophile. For which the brand is called out to - that person should be sued for libel and assault. I’m sick of this disgusting party of thugs.

As we've studied mental health, it's obvious that "you are only as sick as your secrets". And, the fact that America has a huge racial component to its illness has gone viral. The cat's out of the bag, the toothpaste is out of the tube, etc....

We are not going back to the 50's, no matter how much some disgusting people in office think they can force us to return. That phony buttoned up concept of "polite society" is GONE. We talk about EVERYTHING.

Who knew being rude, crude and socially unacceptable could be so valuable to the advancement of mankind? So, I am all for Republicans showing us who they are. Let the fools walk out while history is being made. America is working on its mental health without them or their delusions.
