I try to keep my blog free of political topics; although, occasionally I get a bee in my bonnet and have to let the darned thing out before it stings my delicate pate. And truly, this isn’t a political post as much as it is an observational one.
The age of electronic communication is still amazing. I remember purchasing air mail stamps so that correspondence might reach its intended destination in a couple of days rather than a week.
When I email my congressional representatives these days I receive an almost immediate response. Granted, it’s a form letter, but at least I know that someone in his/her office noted that a constituent felt strongly enough about an issue to make public their stand.
I seriously doubt that Senator Rubio will heed my plea, whatever it might have been. I haven’t the money or the political pull to sway his thinking. That’s the cynic in me. However, the eternally optimistic side of my brain thinks, maybe, just maybe, he’ll read my words and a lightbulb will appear over his head, or he’ll be moved to tears by my story and say,
“Yes! I don’t need the support of powerful corporations and their money anymore! I don’t need to be beholden to the far right. I’m going to seriously consider the words of Nana Noyz!”
And pigs shall fly.
Peace, people!

Oh! Basically they’re saying thanks for emailing your congressman, but don’t send expect a personal response.

When is “near future”?
I am sorry, I got distracted when I read your posts this morning: a troll visited my blog. This troll lives in Ireland, as I was able to figure out… I sent all his epistles to the Spam folder – it prevents them from appearing in my Comments in the “near future”… What our future holds for us?…

I’m fascinated by American politics, as well. We are in quite a predicament these days.

We went to Scotland a couple of years ago and I was astonished by the questions we were asked about our politics. Very astute questions, at that. We must seem like a grand 3 ring circus to the sane world.

I hope you get a favourable and swift response for your letter… And well, speaking of political insanity, Have you heard Canada’s Justin Trudeau lately? Everything that guy says/does makes me cringe! 😛 So thank God for His comfort through prayer and the truth of your previous “tears as prayers” post! 🙂 ♥ ❤
