Time Out, America

Would it hurt a Blue State American to say a nice word to a Red State American? Would it be too much to ask a Red State American to compliment a Blue State American? Please, in the name of The 4th of July, can we be civil toward each other for one day? Please, my fellow Americans, can we take a day off from bickering, disharmony, and nasty name-calling? Oh, my dear countrymen, if we dare take 'time out' with a smile, no one loses, and everyone gains. On this July 4th, this is my prayerful plea to America. On our 248th birthday, 'Time Out' is my solemn hope. 070324PS
