Facts and reason, Ann.
I’m listening to you, Mark.
Facts and reason (hi, Mark) are all good in their place, but an old saying in politics is, “Campaign in poetry, govern in prose.” I’m afraid that the Republicans are campaigning in “poetry.” Not that there’s anything poetic about TFG’s lies, but the way he lies is practically Shakespearean. The Democrats are campaigning in the prose of facts and reason. We’ve left out the poetry.
As I’m listening to the Democrats and Republicans now, Barbara, I’m hearing many different things.
Sometimes a friend will tell me something and I’ll ask, “What are you really saying?” Because I can hear they’re trying to say something more but I can’t quite hear what it is.
You always come through loud and clear, my friend.
There is something quite soothing about the photos in this post.
I’m listening, Marueen!
