Politics As Unusual

Ever notice politics of late?
You're all kicked back and happy
And then it comes like fate!

Of all the bickering that ever was
It's booming through your home
Why You can hardly catch your breath
And you know you're home alone!

And can you believe the money paid, 
To mess up our whole day?
Happens every time!
Can't have things their way!

Yep, "He did this and she did that!"
Just Another Sibling Spat!

Yes exactly. The lack of fair attention to context and facts undermines the republic. And so, we revert to an oligarchy and a land of the privileged (who will be a small percentage of the total). People have been lied to and are voting against the best interest of the society at large. Ouch. This is not necessarily about military service, but rather about honor. There is no honor in that we are blessed by trickle down. The poor planet is becoming more messy to support inequality.

It use to be we were the home of the brave now we are home of the blame, way too many of our leaders haven't spent time in the military to understand respect and discipline, in fact, some that are off my age down right hid from service...sad...USN CVA 66 USS America,aircraft carrier

My dad was a CPO AOC Arthur F. Horn on CVN-11 Intrepid now in New York Harbor and was killed on it in the Med. I am a retired veteran myself.
