Although it's not usually considered to be a blood-letting, Thanksgiving is a traditional time when we bring the turkeys of the world to the kitchen, lop off their heads, pluck their feathers, stuff their rear-ends full and roast the hell out of them. Then, we barbarously eat them, along with sumptuous gravies, mashed potatoes and decadent desserts... all washed down with wine... after which we then take three more days to digest all of it before heading back to our daily chores.
Somehow, we feel renewed, cleansed and pure when it's all over.
And so it is that we are faced this year with the biggest turkey this country has ever seen... Hillary Clinton. There are those of us, me included, who would love to see Hillary suffer the same same fate as Tom Turkey, and what a feast that would be. I'd really enjoy plucking her feathers, one by one, just has she has done to the country for decades. She's a crook, a thief, a liar... an unspeakable cad in a world desperate for honesty and truth.
Certainly, if anyone deserves to be pilloried and crucified, it's Hillary Clinton.
But, we who have had exposure to the truths of the Bible know that vengeance belongs to the Lord. We should not trouble ourselves with purging our midst of evil; let God do it. Why get our hands dirty? Clinton has already suffered a major punishment, that of losing what she has always cherished so much that she was willing to sell her soul in order to get it; and there the presidency was, within her very grasp, and it vanished in front of her eyes forever.
Donald Trump was right in deciding not to seek criminal penalties against her. We can go to back to work Monday feeling renewed and refreshed. Unlike the far left of the country, we're Americans who have it in our hearts to forgive and to move forward with the more important things in our lives.
But never let us forget.
See you Monday.
