    They are probably thick and tired of hearing about it.

    You can surrender
    Without a prayer
    But never really pray
    Pray without surrender
    You can fight
    Without ever winning
    But never ever win
    Without a fight

    After watching Schumer explain why he will not support his Party or his President I thought about this quote from 2008.
    “Israel and its Fifth Column in this city seek to stampede us into war with Iran. Bush should rebuff them, and the American people should tell their congressmen: You vote for 362, we don’t vote for you.” P. Buchanan -- Column, “A Phony Crisis — and a Real One,” July 15, 2008

    Came across this again today- one of my favorites from "Uncle" Walt Whitman:

    “This is what you shall do; Love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men, go freely with powerful uneducated persons and with the young and with the mothers of families, read these leaves in the open air every season of every year of your life, re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency not only in its words but in the silent lines of its lips and face and between the lashes of your eyes and in every motion and joint of your body.”
    "It's a sad and beautiful world"
    -Roberto Benigni
