It was a madhouse on square wheels and I decided to take a week off. As I was about to leave the office for my vacation, a member of my staff handed me a bottle of whiskey. I seldom drink whiskey but I thanked him for it and stepped out onto the street and turned toward the bus stop. <br /><br />As I did a panhandler shuffled out of a doorway and asked for spare change so he could buy some "food."

It is so very rare that I hear a straight, simple answer from a politician, that it stands out like a red flag in an empty field. Hillary, Bill, and Obama are the best at giving a non answer that I have ever seen.pc-nothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13786855979790657221noreply@blogger.com
