Nothing is as troubling today as the frustration that rules American politics.

“When the heroes go off the stage the clowns come on.” Heinrich Heine

 

The questions for most Americans today is the question – When did the clowns come on the stage to dominate the American political scene?  A side bar question is to ask – Are there still some heroes scattered among the clowns? 

Nothing is as troubling today as the frustration that rules American politics.

The continuing self righteousness of both of our major political parties is a national scandal. When do they stop the quest for personal power and begin to govern responsibly? 

If this seems harsh, what else is causing this continuing political gridlock that now threatens our fragile economic recovery? 

We live in a time that demands action that includes the best of both the right and the left. As always, we will eventually get there.  The question is will the heroes take back the stage in time?
