I actually contacte...Thanks for this post, Phelan. I actually contacted both my senators for the first time...ever...in my life...to send an email about this issue. I'll probably follow up on them soon. The problem with me is that since I hate politics (and politicians?? :)) and I don't LIKE getting into controversial topics all too much, I'm uninformed about the issues. And there are so many issues. And they interrelate. And it seems you have to follow them constantly to even understand what's going on at all. And then there are all the biased sources you have to read to TRY to see through the rhetoric and try to understand the future implications as well.<BR/><BR/>All of which leaves me feeling not so smart and a bit out of my league.<BR/><BR/>Which is unfortunate, because there's really no excuse for my own ignorance since this is a free country.<BR/><BR/>So I rant :) But at least now I'm TRYING.<BR/><BR/>Thank you ...you and some others out here are helping make it easier to sort through, and to act.Robbynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01860870861321231048noreply@blogger.com
