A message to members of Congress:

Your job's not to twitter Your job's not to tweet You're there to solve problems With the other party to meet To hash out your differences To find common ground, socialize Not to preen, pout or name-call -- Cut some deals: Compromise! Stop wasting our time and our money With your personal agendas Do the job you're elected to do Or very next ballot, you'll be through

the duck's a wonder...but then core his supporters think clearly as a fog...and the duck is only there to distract attention as the bankruptcy conman he is...it wasn't that long ago several corps got trillions in tax dollars over a wall street collapse...the duck is just a tool

The duck IS just a tool. So true...Interestingly, I just read about a female Jamaican immigrant, a Republican, who is challenging AOC for her Congressional seat in 2020. Her whole campaign is built around the message that AOC is busy promoting herself and ignoring her constituents' needs. Exactly my point. Thanks for the view and the viewpoint, Sand. Best wishes, gw
