That coincides with a nearly heated discussion I had just a couple of days before our local caucus meeting. I was talking with the District chairman of the Republican Party, and he asked if I would be at the caucus meeting. I guess he took it as a flippant remark, when I asked which branch of the Incumbent Party he represented, the Democrat Branch or the Republican Branch. I heard and saw very little at the meeting to change my viewpoint. Their main concern is to get members of their party elected, whether it's good or bad. The People and the Laws are irrelevant. The issues don't really matter, except as a way to pry a couple of votes from the opposition. As long as party politics is the main focus, We the People are irrelevant. There really are no principals involved, concerning the environment, alternative energy, renewable domestic energy to reduce dependence on foreign oil in the interest of National Security, etc. There may be some principals stated, but there is no commitment behind the words. TALK IS CHEAP! And to quote an old saying,"When all is said and done, there's been a lot more said than done!"
