Once, Words Mattered

As the candidate yammered on His opponent stood his ground When the first ran out of time In a flash the second chimed ~ “I’d always thought a man’s word was his bond”

True indeed Gershon...We're in some kind of a media centered world where words seem to mean little. It's all in the delivery now sad to say. I'm wondering if people were watching the discussion with any kind of discriminating eye. Smiles and thanks.
