A Commoner in a world that thinks itself uncommonly uncommon

While watching Meet The Press today the words I heard were basically the same words I've heard for 40 years. The topics have changed little as a result of our failure to solve, with any permanence, any of the major issues at hand. The political climate, as perceived through public opinion polls, is manipulated in a see-saw way so some of us are forcibly excused from the table.

This is not to say that discussions should not take place or have no value, it is just that the ones we have seem to lead to the same place we started from.

Listen to common sense not ideology. Judge by results instead of dollars. Even Scrooge eventually learned that lesson! Let us hope we need no ghosts to convince us of what is the only path that reaches all and endures because it does so.
