One thing I know is politicians and the only way to deal with them is this way. Years ago I was involved in trying to stop a landfill in my county. We tried to be nice and civil and they wouldn't give us the time of day. So we changed tactics we overwhelmed their telephones, marched on the county executive's building and held rallies that looked similar to those on the u-tube videos.

Somehow that got their attention and then they were sitting down talking to us and listening to our concerns and the result was the County's first recycling law.

Point is these pols just want two things. Re-election and power and they can't get power unless they get re-elected. Being polite doesn't get you anywhere with these people they are thugs in suits.

Remember the Boston Tea Party.

You did not respond to my comments on the demonstrations by the left.
