So, honestly, how many secretly keep hoping to see a Breaking Headline like this

President Obama To Address Nation Tonight


I know I do. And I keep praying and dreaming, just maybe it happens. And if so, I sometimes indulge in pretending how cool it would be to hear something like.

My Fellow Americans. Our worst nightmare is over! There is solid evidence that our election was compromised on many levels. I have spoken with leadership from both parties and their legal advisers, my cabinet and all White House legal advisers, and Chief Justice Roberts. I have been advised that I should declare the results of the Presidential election be halted until an investigation by a Special Prosecutor that I will announce in the Morning, can be done. As of right now is no longer a President Elect until we can figure out how to proceed. Because of the highly volatile nature of this news I am also declaring Marshal Law and a curfew will be in place tonight. The Dept of Justice and the Military that will be holding a press conference momentarily with more information. We will keep you the American citizen informed as the situation changes. Thank you for prayers during this very difficult period in our history. May God Bless America.


I know, not gonna happen. But it felt good thinking it might.

then I remember Obama saying anything else I am dreaming about would send then into a tizzy anyway. So Marshal Law makes the dream cut. Besides, it's my dream not those nut jobs. They can suck it!

Because shit like that causes civil wars and MILLIONS DIE!

I have seen genocide up close and mass graves, you have no real idea of what you speak.

The trigger happy numb nuts would love nothing more than for a chance to play with their precious over what you dream about. Make no mistake I live here in Oklahoma they were itchy before they "won" and made me nervous shit like this dream and God help us all.
