Well Mel
Yes Indeed. This is very un physio but I can't help myself. Why do the
Republicans seem to favour such unintelligent, maliable leaders. No need to
answer I think I know the reason.
I believe the American State/Constitution was brought about by the most
liberal and free thinking people of its time, ie the 18th Century. The
application has been suspect since. I hanker for a more considerate,
tolerant, less self obsessed age, where doing the right thing for the sake
of it, not for some spiritual or personal gain is the motive and is
considered sufficient.
Perhaps this is why I am a poor physio in my native land, or just not very
good at my job.
Sorry, too much Pastis.
