If one is wrong, all are wrong!

Is there really any difference? I would bet that not a single American would tolerate interference in our government, yet we ("we", used loosely) condone interference in governments around the world. If one is wrong, all are wrong.

We sound hypocritical...

We don't get to write the rules for everyone. But we should be darn sure that what we demand from other countries, we demand for ourselves. Our influence around the world has lead to wars, seating greedy dictators, making countries unsafe for the people, and privatizing public services. We sound hypocritical to demand that Russia keep their nose out of our elections.

Breathe in peace, breathe out love...

This kind of behavior is happening all over our country. It is easy to get caught up defending oneself or even retaliating in kind. It takes a calm person who deeply knows what kind of world she want to live in to turn away, unaffected by vicious hatred. Breathe in peace, breathe out love.

Capitalism, designed for the wealthy...

The capitalistic government, governing only for profit, is frightening. While I know our founders were wealthy, white men, they created a government that has allowed us to evolve into a democracy that works for the benefit of the people. It will be a sad day when benefit is only for the rich.

Honest, civil conversations...

I know, it seems like an unlikely thing to write to our current president. But, I write about the world as I wish to see it, and that means having honest, civil conversations with people with whom we disagree. I am always open to that possibility.

A bit more in-your-face...

This is a bit more in-your-face than most of my postcards. But, my concerns for our country and it's people is getting more and more ramped up the more I learn about what is going on.

The Big Distraction...

And this was only two days ago. Today in the paper he is again saying that Russian meddling is a "hoax". This is a distraction. We must keep our heads from spinning so we can focus on what is really going on in Washington.
