"It Seems To Me..." is where I offer opinions on current issues and events. You may agree with me in full or in part or you may be diametrically opposed; and that's OK. The point is it's an opinion to which we are all entitled.
Well, it happened, is anybody surprised? And is anybody surprised that the American public has reacted as it has? The market fell 634 points – that’s the largest single day fall since the recession began in 2008. And what are our leaders doing? Blaming each other; pointing fingers at everyone else; discounting the credibility of Standards & Poor’s. Everything except what they should be doing – LEADING and acting as responsible adults.
It seems to me that someone at the top, and I won’t mention names because it’s all of them, should stop this childish name calling, figure pointing and basic excuse-making and focus on the problem and a solution. Learn the meaning of compromise – act on behalf of the people not your party.
As Lincoln implied our government is –
"…of the People, by the People and for the People…”
It is not a government of the Party, by the Party and for the Party.
And that’s the way it should be… at lease in my opinion
