time undergoes a cleansing blurring treachery and responsibility its like a legally blind person reading the Constitution he see it but not the cracks within for time blurs our understanding but the pulsating drone heard from the great unwashed to corrupt cities and beyond are in accord and resound in agreement seeing the cracks leading us into a ruthless way of life finally maybe too late maybe not the country is awakening to Houdini-like trickery the second hand of the coming peril ticks away slowly without stopping a democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government when the voters discover they can vote themselves largess out of the public treasury—Alexander Fraser Tytler maybe just maybe a light is being shinned through the closed drapes of professional politics the urge to throw the bums out has never been stronger August 14, 2016 / ©Jerry Pat Bolton ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

"through the closed drapes of professional politics the urge to throw the bums out has never been stronger" Nowadays as elsewhere in other countries, rarely we label politics as "professional", seems the drapes will stay closed forever, unless we do the world a makeover. |

I guess. I'm voting for Trump. Can't even stand the thought about Killery getting into that White House. The only thing about Trump that kinda bothers me is the fact he has never had any but himself to please. He has the whole nation to please this time around. Thank you for your input, Emma.. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

Oh they are professional, jjote. Professional enough to get into the machinery. which is Washington, and professional to keep us voting them back in time after time. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |
