Tired Of Politics (MM #1742)

If you’re like me, you’re already tired of politics and all the rhetoric being spewed by both sides. The process of getting elected starts earlier and earlier every year. And the added use of social media by politicians seems to make the election cycle sooooo much longer than in years past…

The Rebel Flag (MM #1559)

Most people that know me, know that I usually have an opinion, right or wrong on almost everything. Recently the topic of the Rebel flag has come to the forefront of the news cycle, but it’s not the first time. This discussion has been going on for many years…

Running For Office (MM #1491)

The whole political system is messed up. Political candidates seem to be running for office the minute they’ve begun serving their new term. The election cycle never stops. Look… the 2016 Presidential race has already begun and the election is over a year and a half away…
