Union – What you do; Reveals!

“Action reveals the unspoken word; recording for all time what one had concealed by silence.”  

“What you do speaks so loud, I can not hear what you say.”

I must confess I do love phrases such as these; an assembly of simple words set in their own unique pattern in such a way that they are both rhythmic to the ear and intimidating in their meaning.  The first series is my own, the latter belongs to Emerson.

A Chamberlain-esque Pledge to America

So, what is there to say about the GOP’s “A Pledge to America?”  Short answer: Not Much!  It is the quintessential poli-speak shaped, formed and refined over decades in to a supremely indefinable medium of its own.  Or, as I write in We Hold These Truths,

“The politician feels quite comfortable defining whatever they want so long as you don’t insist on their telling you, precisely, what it is!  After all, to press a point of principle is only to render them speechless!”

WiNiP – A Perfect Mission! V9.10

What I Noticed in Passing….

This past Tuesday I was invited to a local “meet & greet” hosting a local politician who is running for office.  I arrived with a few copies of each of the books in the Blind Vision Series, set them on the entry table along with a “promo” hi-lighting the material as well as a “soft pitch” on yours truly and with this administrative task aside, I milled about the hall listening in on various conversations, looking for a familiar face. It wasn’t long until I found myself on the perimeter of a group, 25 or so standing listening intently to the guest of honor making his pitch!

September 11th – A Canvas

I remember that morning, a canvas in red…

Translucent the shadow, no piercing light upon its veil…

Man, as do his structures, fail withering with age…

Wounds, not always, heal with time…

Tragic is in absence and of unknown loss…

Hope lies in present amidst the fog.

Before the final breath, should but one remain…

Remove the veil, it will be known…

The cost of sacrifice is but a price…

For absolutely,

No thing at all.

The Light Exposes the Dimly Lit!

The Body Politic is only just beginning to stir.  Quite easy to observe the stated political machinery in action, finger pointing, name calling and sorted details of miss-deeds and personal failures. The incumbent assails the opposition for their lack of experience whilst extolling their own personal virtues using silence to distance themselves from culpability.

In California, the poster child for all things politically extreme, we see the pathologically miss-informed challenged by the hopelessly ill-informed both attempting to seduce the un-informed.  But let’s not forget the Great State of Colorado presently engaged in the same charade of seduction along with Arizona, Pennsylvania and so on and so forth.
