A Free Speech Lesson: The Onion and Sandy Hook families think out of the box

God bless The Onion and the Sandy Hook families for thinking outside the box to disrupt the lies and the liars who lie them.

The 1st Amendment protects our speech from government control, not from harming others and for your own personal gain. Go ahead, say what you want, defamation law will demand you step up and take responsibility for the harm you cause. Lesson learned.

Thank you to all voters

Thank you to everyone who voted. Over these past three elections we have sent our government a clear message. We are a country divided. It's now our responsibility to elect and challenge our legislators to work across the aisle. To find answers that serve all of us, not just some of us. 

We must be the watch dogs that protect our democracy.

For those dismayed by some outcomes, remember that "all politics is local" (Tip O'Neil). The work for change is ours to do.
