We are creating real hunger and starvation in Africa, Asia and Central and South America and sky high food prices for Americans (our livestock are fed corn) with our soybean and corn subsidies for ethanol. Feel guilty about that, you damned watermelons (Russian word for environmentalists: green on the outside, red on the inside).

An all-around excellent post, Sandra! I served my country honorably in more than just a few of the armpits of the world, where TRUE poverty exists. I consider myself a Ronald Reagan Republican who’s party has lost it’s moral compass, as well as it’s appreciation for unprecedented INDEPENDENCE! That leaves us with fence-sitting conservative wannabes or “watermelons” as you so aptly refer to them running this once great country. We’re all surely in for MUCH rougher times….
