Thanks Greg, my wife and I were talking about how people can't admit that they have made a mistake. So many of these people have voted for these right wing nut jobs and now don't know how to undue their mistake, actually pretty simple vote the bastards out next time. We don't have a lot of time to right this country of ours, but with your help we can get it done. Thank you.

Thank you for your support and encouragement. You Maine-iacs have your hands full with LePage! He's not just crazy, he's MEAN!
We CAN turn things around, but it'll take a lot of noise. Stay in touch; I love hearing from you. And thanks again.

Best regards,

Greg

Sorry, mtasselin, I confused your comment with one from Maine that expressed much the same sentiment. But the situation is nearly universal, no matter where we are. I don't know how many of Michigan's congressional districts have been gerrymandered into Gordian knots, but we can beat the bastages!

Best,

Greg

Directly to Corporations such as Coca-Cola about GMO funding on the secret, etc. I live in ME and am about the same age as you...we have to keep shouting, but getting those slugs to listen, let alone think, is truly a test.

See my first response to mtasselin above. That was meant for you! I don't know the emoticon for red-faced dummy!
Whatever. Dedicated and conscientious folks like you are the ones that make a difference, even if you sometimes feel like a lonely voice in the wilderness.
Next week's commentary will expand on this theme, unless, of course, some other right-wing insanity demands an indignant rant.

Thanks for your support,

Greg
