It is so hard to listen to any political news lately. It seems to be an us v. them mentality and the rallying cry is fear. The truth is they are the ones who are afraid. Afraid someone might do something we like and they not get the credit. I honestly believe wars have started over less. It's disheartening. I hope you check out my sequel tomorrow. It's a bit more ranty, but has a point to follow this analogy. <br> On a completely different note, I hope all is going well for you. I miss seeing your smiling face and reading your well thought out, humorous, and poignant writings. I do hope you are keeping a journal of your adventures, which will undoubtedly become the basis of the story you will pen one day. @Heather Kephart, Thank you, Heather.

I like your analogy. I know politics & religion are terribly important, but I am sick to death of the way they seem to inspire people who would otherwise be good, respectful friends to rip each other to shreds like pitbulls. .-= Heather Kephart shares some words of wisdom ..<a href="http://heatherkephart.com/2010/03/the-daily-irritation/" rel="nofollow">The Daily Irritation</a> =-.

Yet, when it comes to politicians it doesn't matter their party, they are all corruptible with a few possible exceptions. @Dave Doolin, I think I much prefer the knife coming at me so I can at least brace for it as opposed to the smile then taking it in the back and completely being off-guard.
