Just kind of chatting

I read the Yarn Harlot's post yesterday and I was dismayed.
"The lines are long at security and I did them coffeeless. This makes me double proud- especially when someone in airport line sees the Canadian flag on my suitcase and takes the time out of their own busy line waiting to tell me that I live in a socialist hell that is doomed to failure. I somehow managed, yay verily though I was COFFEELESS, to thank them for taking the time to share. "

People will you chill out! I think the election is getting to folks. I think its time to smell the yarn. Here have a bit of merino wool to hold for a moment. Feel the softness, breathe deeply.

Okay so someone explain to me how the people who claim they are for the rights of the unborn can view the life of a living person and find it to be less than sacred? Let us get through this election and try to be at the very least civil to each other.

Let not our public officials incite hatred. Let the leaders of our various religions preach a message of peaceful discourse. Let us heal this country. And for heavens sake let us not be rude to our neighbors in Canada.
