Gods, I love witches.

I love that some of us have seen fit to hex our embarrassment of a president.

I love that some of us have seen fit to hex our embarrassment of a president publicly.

I love that some of us disapprove of hexing our embarrassment of a president.

I love that we fight about hexing our embarrassment of a president.

I love that no one questions whether or not it's possible to hex our embarrassment of a president.

I love that we care enough either to hex our embarrassment of a president, or to disapprove of hexing our embarrassment of a president.

I love that we fight.

I love that we care.

I love that though, 100 years ago, there effectively was no Younger Witchery, we now number—worldwide—in the millions.

I love that we know how to fly.

So: first they hexed the Blowhard-in-Chief.

Now they've hexed the Dishonorable Judge Kavanaugh.

I say: good for them.

I'm not of the “An it harm none” school. Personally, I feel that the power to curse is one of the arrows in the witch's quiver, one of the powers that our gods have given us.

It's a terrible power and, as such, not one to be used lightly.

So “the witches” (and whatever your position on the subject, don't think that you're not tarred with the same brush) have publicly hexed the A-hole-in-Chief and the newest Supreme Court Injustice. If either of them knows about this—and I'd be willing to bet that they both do—their response was probably laughter.

So much the better.

When it comes to hexes, there are two kinds: the nasty, and the really nasty.

Nasty: You should drop dead.

Really nasty: You should live for a long, long, long, long time....

...and be in unbearable pain the whole time.

So: Senate Majority leader “Mitch” McConnell has hexed us all with a stacked Supreme Court for the forseeable future. As hexes go, this is clearly one of the B variety.

Well, one good hex deserves another. To my mind, only one real question still remains.

Dear GW/BW

Seriously, how about a spell to save the Affordable Care Act? Can we bind the GOP from doing harm? Is there a more positive way to approach this nightmare and turn it around?
