That is my pet peeve, and that is pretty much the way I say it. That is if you are not honest with me then you don't respect me, and if you want respect show respect. Good one, Ron

Sadly, it seems impossible for politicians anymore. The day that changes for the better, is the day we start to get our country back to how we remember and love it. Love, Shar

Excellent. I value honesty above all other things. Sadly, so many are 100% fake. Love this poem, love Kristin
