Sawzaw: "KBO unwed mother. We have to make jobs in Russia before we help you."

....and create jobs in China ..and open and not defend our borders without regulating for quotas, as done in the past, as to not impact employment...oh, and sell guns to drug cartels,...not to mention a trillion dollars that someone just lost track of....and......

and what's this about, Bobert?
"Wow...
You get whiplash from these U-turns, GfinS???"

You're the one doing all the spinning.

Guest,999: "I have had a eureka moment. The US is no longer a democracy.
At the federal level, you have two parties from which to choose. They each do mostly the same things so it's not much of a choice..."

Bruce, I know you are a man of common sense....LH, and I, and others have been telling you that for a while..(I'll speak for myself)...Up earlier in the thread you can find such posts, that I trust will not make you feel so 'alone' in your epiphany, and might even give you some extra insights. Scroll back up and read them.
I find, that regardless of all that, that good music can be directed to the inner soul of mankind, and the effects of hearing and comprehending the music, makes the two worlds, of the needs of humanity vs the bullshit of politics, clearly distinguishable from each other.
Just the boneheads either don't see it, or are not in touch with their soul.....and try to replace it with dizzying logic trains, designed to manipulate masses of non-thinking party robots.

...as for me, and stated before, "I'm not with the party, I'm with the band,".....even solo!

Highest Regards Bruce!
