And, yes I think Marylin and Julia hit the nail on the head with their comments. As for our House of Lords, so right, you never know, I might be inviting you there one of these days and then we both woke up LoL. Thanks for selling in, always nice to see you here.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18318793094470458468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132275097242652461.post-87421269776185356962013-01-06T11:42:38.261+00:002013-01-06T11:42:38.261+00:00I think Julia's dad hit the nail on the head: ...I think Julia's dad hit the nail on the head: who the devil would want the job of a leader in any of this? And, not to defend the idiots in charge, but who would want to have to deal with a bunch of whining voters all the time? LOL!<br /><br />I'm not sure what the answer is, but in a fantasy world it would be nice if we could take what we've learned in the experiments in democracy thus far and build a better mousetrap. We'll never make things perfect - we're human after all - but we could build a much better democratic system.<br /><br />Unfortunately, the reality is that we're stuck with the messes we've got. I'm just glad that, as screwed up as things are here in the US, at least we don't have the issue the UK has of an ever-expandingn House of Lords! It sounds like eventually everyone in the UK will have a seat in it... ;-)Michael R.

Privately, he and my mom had agreed there was not way they wanted their children growing up in the political world. <br />What my dad said to the men having dinner around our dining room table was this: "Anyone who wants to be the governor is either oblivious of what's going on, or a little crazy. Neither one of those would make a good leader, and the really good leaders don't want to do it."marylin warnerhttp://warnerwriting.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132275097242652461.post-6714115501045551162013-01-05T23:00:47.841+00:002013-01-05T23:00:47.841+00:00Greta, thanks for stopping by and couldn't agr...Greta, thanks for stopping by and couldn't agree more I think this is the first time we have had a coalition since before the war and it isn't pretty, but then neither are any of the singular parties in power either <br /><br />Drop in any time my sweet Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18318793094470458468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132275097242652461.post-59733437046257194532013-01-05T22:57:58.536+00:002013-01-05T22:57:58.536+00:00Me too, even some of the local ones .....
