You Can'T March Dirt Out

You can't march dirt from soiled laundry – 
one needs a strong detergent, and several
cycles of rinses.  You can't vote dictators
out of office – they do the counting, generally
counting the people out.  The world is in a
fix; America in the mix.  We need our, so called,
representatives in Washington to gain a backbone...
and not just ring their hands while pontificating – 
or are they all so conflicted themselves, that they 
dare not do their jobs?

Evil devours Evil! In time a powerful, 
ruthless person, decides to do good for 
the people – just to get the masses on
his side. So the seat of power can be
transferred.  Sometimes a group of well
to do individuals, tired of politics 
as usual, have an epiphany...and an
America is born!

Panagiota Romios Date: 7/28/2021 9:55:00 PM All countries have Leaders, elected by boneheads or intelligent people. But voters never take responsibity, Not too hard to figure out which group Put the USA One in ~ a tragedy, Any American who says "There IS No Crime in the USA",,,is cracked. Current leader said there is no crime here?!That's akin to me standing on a freeway, saying there is no traffic. Using a man, who cannot speak? Not know where he is? It's Elder Abuse. And Americans need to take to the streets as Europe is. Viva, Europe. PR The Marxists must be stopped.

Richard Lamoureux Date: 7/28/2021 3:32:00 PM I think American politics is to far gone. Well expressed, the country is in need of a deep cleaning.

That accounts for the soul...don't know where and when their minds left.

Anne-Lise Andresen Date: 7/28/2021 11:59:00 AM ... I know most things about dirty laundry ... but not so much about American politics :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :) Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 7/28/2021 10:03:00 PM I agree with you, Joe on ANNE-LISE's honesty. Fed up with other countries using America as their punching bag. As if other countries were cool and faultless! What a crock! Panagiota Joe Dimino Date: 7/28/2021 5:20:00 PM Well, at least you are honest, and open minded. Thank you, Sunshine -- we like you just the way you are. Blessings.

L Milton Hankins Date: 7/28/2021 8:37:00 AM Right on, Joe. And, I say those who do not do their jobs should be voted out...pronto! Login to Reply Joe Dimino Date: 7/28/2021 9:00:00 AM Hello my friend. Thank you for reading and commenting. Your positive feedback means a lot to me -- to this Nation!
