I’ve found a person with whom I am totally in sync! My Postmistress!
Today, when I stopped to send a box to my sister, this lady and I were the only two in the post office. I have decided to be politically incorrect and wish people “Merry Christmas.” They may respond as they wish, so I’m going to say what I want.
So, I told her I knew it was politically incorrect, and then wished her a Merry Christmas. She agreed with me! And that started off a five or six minute conversation about all the things we object to in our current government.
The upshot of our conversation was that if we don’t tell our government that we object to the decisions they are making they will never know that they are on the wrong track. Those of us who have been part of the Silent Majority now need to take responsibility for where things are going. Write your representatives. Tell them what you think, and continue to let them know what you think.
And for my part, I wish you a Merry Christmas!
Arrrgh!!!
It's just my state of mind!
Yep, you’re right Buffy….absolutely right. I think a lot of people are starting to write their representatives about many things. Merry Christmas to you too sweetie… ~Joy
I continually contact my representatives and Senators (both at the state and national levels). Doesn’t seem to have done much good, but at least I know that I have not been silent.
We voted everyone out at the national level in November, so maybe the new crop will listen. A majority of the lot was replaced at the local level too, so hopefully everyone got the message!
Thank you, Joy! I hope you’re ready to celebrate with your extended family.
Bogie, I wish that I felt more positive about the results of the elections. This year, in Illinois, it felt as though we were being asked to make a choice between two really bad options. Honesty and ethics seem to have disappeared, and we are left with a letter writing campaign to make ourselves heard. I’m glad to know that you have been contacting your representative. I’ll be joining you!
Buffy–It was interesting to me to see that in at least two states, a former governor won election over current the governor. Telling.
