I Listened

I didn't write this, but it says exactly the way I feel

"I listened as they called my President a Muslim.

I listened as they called him and his family a pack of monkeys.

I listened as they said he wasn't born here.

I watched as they blocked every single path to progress that they could.

I saw the pictures of him as Hitler.

I watched them shut down the government and hurt the entire nation twice.

I watched them turn their backs on every opportunity to open worthwhile dialog.

I watched them say that they would not even listen to any choice for Supreme Court no matter who the nominee was.

I listened as they openly said that they will oppose him at every turn.

I watched as they did just that.

I listened.

I watched.

I paid attention.

Now, I'm being called on to be tolerant.
To move forward.
To denounce protesters.
To "Get over it."
To accept this...

I will not.

I will do my part to make sure this great American mistake becomes the embarrassing footnote of our history that it deserves to be.

I will do my part to limit the damage that this man can do to my country.

I will let you know in a loud voice every time this man backs away from a promise he made.

I will speak with the people who voted for him. The ones who sold their souls and prayed for him to win.

Do not call for my tolerance. 
I've tolerated all I can.

I find it unreasonable for them to expect from me what they were entirely unwilling to give."
