Waging WAR on Ignorance, Intolerance & Injustice!
“Tragedy is a tool for the living to gain wisdom, not a guide by which to live.” — Robert Kennedy
(More than a little ironic, I’d say. Huh, folks? Brother Teddy – apparently – used it as a guide, because at least he made it to 77 years. Jack only made it to 46, and himself to 42. It is a noble sentiment, but he paid the ultimate price for his nobility. Why do they always have it out for people of vision? Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

“Yet many of the world’s great movements, of thought and action, have flowed from the work of a single man.” — Robert F. Kennedy
(What’s a guy’s marital status got to do with anything??? LOL! JK. I always wonder though, when a quote is attributed to a politician/statesman, are they always his/her own words, or are they sometimes/often that of their speech writers? Bobby had a great one in Adam Walinsky. I did not realize that Mr. Walinsky had come out in favor of Donald Trump, leading up to the election! His primary reasoning is more a commentary/condemnation on the state of the Democratic party, and its candidate – at the time – Hillary Clinton, and it’s one that I cannot disagree with. I could not bring myself to vote for Mr. Trump, but I also could not vote for Mrs. Clinton, for many of the reasons he cites. I’m posting the link to the article below, for those who are interested. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
