I am glad I am neither a republican nor a democrat because of the lack of differences in philosophies expressed in these threads. That’s why I’ve stopped posting on the political threads.
Gardening? Helping others? Knitting? The Viaduct? Stop signs? Eating? Getting together? I’m there! National politics — nah. Not good for my mental or physical health.
I realized I’ve been defending what to me are “well, it’s better than nothing” points of view. I will vote for Obama, or Clinton, if she manages to convince racist white men that she’s their only hope. But I’m sure as hell not going to pontificate about them — my heart isn’t in it. :-)
Meantime, I urge you all, left right and center, to listen to and read a lot of stuff that isn’t written here, or linked to here.
And, if anyone wants to show up at BPP, a bunch or few of us will be there at 2 today. :-)
