I’m having a hard time gathering my thoughts today. It’s been a couple of very long nights here in the LA area. I have friends who lost everything and having to cope with the ignorant sociopath who will soon be the most powerful man in the country again is almost too much to bear. I’m outsourcing my commentary for the moment to California native son Brian Beutler: My exact words would be a bit more profane but that’s why I’m not a public official.
