"I'm serious about moving to Canada. I'm ashamed of America. The control by fundamentalist religious fanatics here is overwhelming. "

The grass is always greener.   I guess it is safer to run than fight. Change can only come from individuals, and that was an overwhelming message that I took away from Obama's speech at the DNC. HE will not make the change, we will. I guess some people will feel like you do and just give up, but overall I think there are enough people that are standing up and forcing change that it will continue with or without you.

There are plenty of things to be ashamed of, and it takes courage and determination and a lot of patience to carry on. I guess we all need to do a gut check and see if we have what it takes to join in.
