Checking In

America will survive.  And prosper.  And re-establish itself as the premier nation of the world.

And the people of America, and the world, will again have confidence in America's leadership.

If and whenever the American people wake up and decide that they have had enough of this (insert your own descriptive term) that they voted in six years ago.

I decided about a year ago to cease cursing.  I am having a terrible time holding to that vow.  Even as a cock-eyed optimist. But, nevertheless, I am confident that change is in the air.  Not hope and change, just change.  The good change.

But the way is going to be hard when:        we have the Minority Leader of the House say, and  say again,    that HAMAS is a humanitarian group;  when:  There appears to be no difference whatever, other than party label, between the Majority Leader and the Minority Leader of the Senate, as neither is willing to move any kind of sensible legislation through the Senate;  when:     the Speaker of the House is unwilling to even listen to requests to pursue impeachment of the Mutt we have in the White House - or any other appointed Washington official;      when:      The US president does not object to Russia devouring Crimea and (insert your own area of the world);  when:    the Press in the US continually tout the great RECOVERY in the US economy, when as a matter of fact, the GDP has fallen for the past six months;  when;   by all reasonable standards, the world is going to hell in a hand basket, the US president and Congress feel it is correct to take off on an undeserved vacaction for three to six weeks .

I could go on, but what is the use, those who care agree with me and just nod their heads and those who disagree aren't intelligent enough to understand.
