Thanks , mauvepink, for your thoughtful posts...

Yes, the times they are a'changin'... We just need to get thru this last line of Neanderthals and with their $$$ it's going to be a slobber-knocker of a fight... They kinda have the game rigged right now in their favor and they are busy trying to set up as many roadblocks as they can so once we get by them we'll have even more work undoing the damage they are inflicting on out country...

That's the other part of Dyaln's song that is quite relevant:

Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside
And it's a ragin'
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a'changin'

Seems that the $$$ is pushing about as hard as it can to "take the country back" to another time... As a student of American history, me thinks that the early 1820's is about where these folks would be happiest... Just so long as they could take their $$$, their McMansions and their toys with them...
