"Vice
President-elect Pence, we welcome you, and we truly thank you for
joining us here at “Hamilton American Musical,” we really do.
We, sir, we are the diverse America, who are alarmed and anxious that your new administration will not protect us, our planet, our children, our parents or defend us and uphold our inalienable rights.
But we truly hope that this show has inspired you to uphold our American values and to work on behalf of all of us. All of us.
Again, we truly thank you for [inaudible] this wonderful American story told by a diverse group of men, women, of different colors, creeds and orientations."

These
are the words spoken by the cast of the musical "Hamilton" to Mike
Pence the other night after his attendance to one of their performances.
Instead of our president-elect reassuring us that he is listening and
will work hard towards uniting us together for the common good, he chose
to first tweet how Pence was "harassed" and then tweeted how "rude" the
cast were towards Pence and they owed him an "apology". I mean we are
talking about Mike Pence - just the most hardcore homophobic person on
the whole planet! Where are his apologies for the things he's said?
Call me crazy, but I simply cannot for the life of me find anything rude, or worth apologizing for in the statement above. Does anyone else think it's scary that our president-elect holds so little regard for our freedom of speech? You would think that Donnie would have enough on his plate without having to spend time on something so trivial. If he is going to be this childish and petty during his administration, then may the Lord have mercy on us all. Till next time - R
PERSONAL NOTE: I do not post on Sundays, but through the miracles of modern technology I was able to prepare this post on Saturday and have a little bot post it for me on Sunday. Very cool. Keeps me in good standing with the "Big Man" up above. Have a good one.
