My Commentary on Bobby’s or Tony’s Commentary... “Draining the Swamp - Is it more than a Cliché?” | Eastern NC Now

    One of the lines that jumped out at me is..."It diverts out attention from the real problem. Washington is a Swamp".

    George Washington and I wrote a Blog Posting in Foolishness...Or Is It? www.forii.blogspot.com that said pretty much the same thing and we posted it in Beaufort County Now on Thursday, February 23rd, 2017. To save you the trouble of scrolling back, here it is...
    First Time Ever! A Petition Received From Beyond The Grave
    General George Washington has petitioned the Congress to change the name of Washington D.C. to, "Anything else ye damn well please".

    He went on to say...
    "I spent my life in service to this once great country and I no longer consider it an honor to have our capital named after me.
    Besides, my cohorts up here in heaven have begun to laugh at me every time the word "Washington" is mentioned on the news. Since ye now have the 24 Hour News Cycle, the guffaws are never ending.
    Sadly sleep is not needed up here. If we did sleep, I could get away from the ridicule for a wee bit. This being the case, the laughing and finger pointing never stops.
    Benjamin Franklin is the worst!"

    Authorities are baffled at how Ole George went about communicating with Congress. A Senate Committee will begin holding hearings next week to get to the root of this strange phenomenon. Committee Hearings are a sure way to get to the bottom of any issue of importance...Or are they?

    Would I kid u?

    I think this statement Of Bobby's or Tony's is profound...
    "The only way most politicians could say less it to talk more as each pronouncement turns into a way to wiggle out of a previous statement."
    It sounds like something The Fella might have written but, since he didn't, he can only wish he had (and possibly plagiarize at a later date).
