Many seem to forget that Democracy is not what we are talking about now. As Hoot'n Annie is so fond of pointing out, we are a Republic, and our vote is sovereign.Margaret Gosden https://www.blogger.com/profile/00253407541215420119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7976656567250803879.post-65395431603187377432012-02-26T11:28:11.470+11:002012-02-26T11:28:11.470+11:00An interesting first line opening ..and then the t...An interesting first line opening ..and then the tale...the blood out of the stone got my attention ~<br /><br />Enjoyed this ~<br /><br />http://a-sweetlust.blogspot.com/2012/02/walking-around.htmlScarlethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03330793338813508704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7976656567250803879.post-50248192844549362012012-02-26T03:07:59.944+11:002012-02-26T03:07:59.944+11:00What a great idea for that first line...how aggrav...What a great idea for that first line...how aggravating it is to try pry money from anyone these days be it charity or otherwise. It reminded me for some reason when I was a kid of the Kirby salesman that would come by and do an elaborate sales pitch for like an hour...my mom would let them clean the entire couch and half the floor before turning them down...lol.

It's nice to think that all people can be as charitable as we are, and it can be quite a slap in the face when we discover they are not.<br /><br />Loved the political poem. It's amazing how similar the political discourse is in different countries, even though we tend to think of "our" problems as strictly our own. I think what I like best about this poem is that you get your point across without some of the vitriol and strident partisanship that seems to dominate much of the political poetry written today.Mary B.

When I was a child, we always used to hide when solicitors of one kind or another came to our door. <br /><br />On another note, could you consider getting rid of word verification. Very hard to read; and I am having to fight with those words to post this; and you already have 'comment moderation' so you have control of what appears.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07366010389846904663noreply@blogger.com
