I have long implored Republicans in Congress to grow a spine. Many of them disagree with the madness and policies of the current administration, but they are physically and/or fiscally afraid to speak out.

One of the worst feelings one can have is knowing what to do…. and not doing it.

While I feel compelled to call out the daily avalanche of pernicious cruelty, it’s also important to embrace beauty. “Day for Night” Honey Run Covered Bridge.

There is little doubt we are either in the midst or the beginning of a Constitutional crisis. At the same time, it’s good inhale/exhale and enjoy a moment of nature. We are on the cusp of Spring, which around these parts which is signaled by the emergence of almond blossoms.

You get to a point where there's ALMOST nothing to say anymore about the cowardice and scraping servility of a slim majority. Someone ought to purchase 53 of these and place them on the chairs in the Senate chambers of the toadies.

Democracy is more fragile than many of us thought. I continue to wonder what gaping hole people have in their soul that only someone like Donald Trump can fill? The basic tenets of empathy, welcoming and kindness to fellow members of our species have been tossed aside for allegiance to a con man.

Donald Trump Person of the Year? What? Of course he is. Remember that the Time Magazine Person of the Year is the talked about person. In 1938, Adolph Hitler was the Man of the Year.

In 1970, cartoonist Walt Kelly modified a quote to say WE HAVE MET THE ENEMY AND HE IS US.
Yup.
