| 1. Love the Shakespeare quote |

"They jest at scars that never felt a wound". Is old Bill a time traveler? A perfect putdown for Pat Peale.

| 2. Lyons nails the core problem |
|
"But the Democrats’ biggest problem is that ordinary people have trouble believing the depths of mendacity to which their opponents have sunk." I have mentioned this same problem, but not with Lyons' elegant succinctness. Most of us Americans are relatively honest, straightforward and believe in teh ideals expressed in teh Constitution and what we aer taught in High School history classes. We tend to assume that others share these values. Thus, most just cannot believe that the administration - which is supposed to be trying to do the best for the people - is as deeply corrupt and manipulative as it is.
