Letter: Dear Barrington liberals, stop complaining about the election

Posted

To the editor:

What's wrong with the libs in this town? 

At one time the Republican Party was in the majority in this town. We never complained about Carter or Clinton or Obama winning their elections. Everyone is entitled to be curiously skeptical, but condemning before the fact is just foolish. We didn't complain about the politics of previous elections. We didn't guess about what they might do. We accepted our new president. We waited to see what would happen. 

Why would anyone waste their time complaining about an election that's been decided? Those complainers have no idea what will happen in the future, they can only surmise. Why can't we all wait to see what's proposed and work with our congressmen and senators to modify the legislation to suit as needed?

I'm sick of complainers that don't know, can't know, won't know, or won't work to make America Great Again.
