Already from my child I hear, "Why should we be on time when x,y, & z always come late?" Apparently there are plenty of overgrown kids out there who figure, "Why should I be fiscally responsible when the government isn't?"Reehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11194901145059968504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22019770.post-35380532831478160022008-03-16T19:23:00.000-05:002008-03-16T19:23:00.000-05:00I don't know if anything in particular can be done...I don't know if anything in particular can be done. Frankly, hadn't thought about DOING something, I'm more into just stalling at the indignation phase. :-) Maybe write your political party leadership, I suppose. They're the ones who set the rules and now are facing the dilemma of whether to break them. Obviously, your impact on the democratic party may be minimal if you are not a democrat!Coachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16363620753397166453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22019770.post-23471176485304237862008-03-14T22:44:00.000-05:002008-03-14T22:44:00.000-05:00Granted, I have been somewhat out of the political...Granted, I have been somewhat out of the political loop in the past few weeks, but I could NOT believe it when I heard that they are thinking of allowing a "do-over" in Florida and Michigan! So what I want to know is , is there anyway that I, as little Jane Doe in the political sense, can help make it known that Rules should be followed, consequences enforced and Florida and Michigan should not be allowed a do-over?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for posting you post and the link to Becks article too!Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07330252661986641984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22019770.post-29008294519112029322008-03-14T22:16:00.000-05:002008-03-14T22:16:00.000-05:00I totally agree with you Coach.

Why should we pay for someone who makes bad business decisions and people who take on too much debt and know it. I've been a fan of Glenn Beck for quite some time and watch him almost every night on CNN. I had to cut down at times because the state of our society is just insane and highlighted every day on his show. But I do love what he has to say about a lot of topics.JennVanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08913615287994793503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22019770.post-23444188784577691052008-03-14T16:34:00.000-05:002008-03-14T16:34:00.000-05:00Right on!

We need to teach our children how to take responsibilty, also. The only way to have real power is by taking responsibility for your actions. We need to be proactive, not reactive, or worse, inactive.<BR/>Mrs. ZootenhorstMrs. Zootenhorsthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17430264792826501390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22019770.post-64473246384669559892008-03-14T15:52:00.000-05:002008-03-14T15:52:00.000-05:00I'm also annoyed by the Michigan and Florida democ...I'm also annoyed by the Michigan and Florida democratic parties who suddenly want their votes to count, particularly because Clinton only won Florida because she broke her promise not to campaign there, but I am bothered by the fact that there are certainly a lot of voters in both states who had nothing to do with the decision to hold the primaries early but still suffer the consequences. It's just an incredibly stupid situation overall.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
