Cancerian

Caught in the 60’s
Anti political correctness
Navy Reservist Retired
Closet liberal?
Entertaining 
Republican registered but votes with heart
Inspired by idiots in Washington
Annoyed with politicians
Not normal thank God!!!

Vince, great acrostic! I'm a Cancer as well and I think we remember many of the same times in the '60s and '70s. Like you, I vote with my heart. And I agree with your sentiments on "Uncle Sam's Sticky Fingers." I know a lot of poor people trying to eke out a living on Social Security. To tax them while the politicians fail to pay their dues to the IRS really angers me! Love, Carolyn

Vince this Acrostic nails you perfectly - I never was to much into politics other than the Courtroom and the Prison yard but recently I seem to be concerned about our whole Political System - I think your Poetry has played a huge roll in all that - God Bless you Vince, MJ

SO totally cool fellow cancerian. Wonder if all cancers are closet liberals? Never be normal! This tells so much about you in so few letters.
