I do not believe that any political campaign justifies the declaration of a moratorium on ordinary common sense.
Politics is a profession; a serious, complicated and, in its true sense, a noble one.
Oh, that lovely title, ex-president.
I have no use for those- regardless of their political party- who hold some foolish dream of spinning the clock back to days when unorganized labor was a huddled, almost helpless mass.

That was and still is the great disaster of my life-that lovely, lovely little boy.
