I'm 65 years old, though I read at the 67-year-old level. I'm an old school, independent Democrat. Hell, I can't afford to be a Republican. I'm not for big government or small government; I'm for efficient government, government that works for the people. George Washington, who eschewed the notion of political parties, once said that all we needed was "common sense and common honesty." Unfortunately, these two commodities are almost impossible to find in the town named after our first president.
Indeed, the Democrats and the Republicans have become the bullies of the playground. They amply fulfill my definition of politics: poly means more than one, and ticks are blood-sucking parasites.
