First I want to recognize that what is happening in Florida,
happened in Houston, the wildfires out west , and the earthquake in Mexico are
much more important that trite political comments so I hope people understand I
understand the gravity of the situation happening to many people, yet I have
been working on my reference page for this blog while watching the cable news
on Irma and also reading other news and one story just got to me.
There was a story on a member of the Freedom Caucus in the
House of Representatives saying the Republican leadership didn’t give Trump a
better choice or better options so he had to make a deal with the Democrats.
My apologies to the victims of all these natural disasters
that I am not keeping them first in my thoughts today and my sincere apologies
to the Eurythmics for this, but it came into my head while reading the story:
Here
comes the blame again
Falling
on my head like a p p rain
Falling
on my head like a new bowel movement
I
want to walk in public discourse
I
want to talk like people do
I
want to talk governance
Is
it raining with you
So
baby talk to me
Like
people do
Work
with me
Like
adults do
Talk
to me
Like
people do
Here
comes the blame again
Raining
in my head like a tragedy
Tearing
us apart like they want to do
I
want to hear rational
I
want to hear reasonable
I
want to dive into common sense
Is
it raining with you
So
baby talk to me
Like
people do
Yes my apologies to the Eurythmics, but the finger pointing
in Washington is doing as much damage to the country as the natural disasters,
unfortunately it is just not as visible.
Can we get Representatives and Senators and Presidents and
citizens to realize we should govern as well as we help each other in these
natural disasters? America is great, we prove it in times like these, why can’t
we take this same attitude and do the daily work of governance?
Hang tight Florida, everyone wants you to get through this.
