NOW WE GET DOWN TO BRASS TACKS

SPECIAL POST

The Iowa Caucuses are upon us, and so begins Election Season 2016 in earnest.  This is where the rubber meets the road. 

All of the talk, the posturing and the politicking have been like seeds in the cornfields, and the crops will now start coming in.  Up until now, the talk has been about the White House but, as we progress day-bay-day toward November, we have to also turn our attentions to the Senate, the House and our local State offices.  Ideally done, this means we have to devote some time out of our busy schedules to investigate the candidates, their histories and their predictable futures. 

This nation is, justifiably, extremely unhappy with our federal government.  If we're going to fix it, (and it is up to us to do that), we're going to have to throw the garbage out; we're going to have to arrange for a while new slate of people in Washington.  It's tough; nobody likes to fire somebody, but when they're not doing the job and flatly refuse to listen to and abide by the will of the people... they have to go.  

Let us stand together, united in the common purpose of restoring the authority and power of government into our hands where it constitutionally belongs.  Let's do together whatever it takes to get our country and our government straightened out.  We need everyone in Iowa to participate in their election process and to set the national tone for the next ten months. 

NOW is the time to act.  We can no longer afford the luxury of ignoring the problem; too much is at stake.  

That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
