With writing like this, we should all have something to say to our elected officials regarding their use and abuse of the powers that we give them...Nice write! Dan C ps. Thanks for your comments on my work.

Another round of deception recently. Your message is so timely. If those in office would only listen. Thank you for your kind comment. Keep on writing! Karen

Yes! Lets have some honesty and responsibility to We the People. These politicians have forgotten that they are in office to serve not to serve themselves. Well said. Twins just had a tough road trip but I did relish that victory over the Yankees. Let's hope they recover as they travel back to Minnesota. Karen

Powerful lanterne, Gerard. I'd like to see someone step up and say, "I don't know" or give us the unpleasant truth rather than feed us lies. My philosophy for the next election is to vote out incumbents (spare the few that have been truthful, like FL Senator Bill Nelson). Arlen Spenser didn't even win his primary so I think this is the mood of the country right now. More will be shown the door. Love, Carolyn

I am not a politician, but we all feel that way one day or other.
