Ahh Mark, you hit the focus of the post. Excellent comment.

Peterike, what can we do to help you with your vision?

Being the jaded cynic that I am, I’ve seen too many people that I thought had a synapse that fired in the right order, but when I talk politics with them, I just smile and move away. I make sure they know where I stand on the issues, but this just feeds the frenzy. They get that spittle in the corner of their mouths and a wild look in the eye… And, I’m amazed at how may there are. How have we gotten to this point? Where the shunning of self-destructive politics and generational thought and care has not set a synaptic path.

With Senators McCain’s VP pick, I see a path to restoration and normal order… Just a path, mind you, but a possible restoration to a citizen-led government. A normal person taking the bull by the horn and saying, “I don’t think so!”. As my wife says – ” A Mrs. Smith goes to Washington”.
