Carlyle W. Begay Switch from a D to an R Today

Wow.  This is powerful stuff.  I went to high school with many Navajo friends who had to leave their homes for a better education.  I hope they will share their thoughts on this.  I'm very interested in their opinions.

Let's Talk About Actually Solving Problems

This is a small part of a Facebook exchange I had with a friend this morning.  I decided I like it so much I want to share it here.

Also, as part of the same conversation I shared this link.  It's what clued me in to the good work many organizations are doing.  Please don't wait for our bickering politicians to help.  YOU can help right now.  It might seem like donating a few dollars is the easy way out, and it should just be a beginning to what we do for these people, but even a few bucks makes a big difference!  Don't sit in your comfortable house and complain about the situation.  Take some action, even if it's just to share this article.

Ronald Reagan's Idealistic Pragmatism

Want to know why I think Reagan was so beloved? He was an ideologue who was also a pragmatist. Some say he talked the talk but didn't walk the walk but I look at it differently. Even though his administration wasn't by the books a government shrinking wonder, he steered us in that direction as well as he could in the circumstances he had to work with. Reagan inherited a terrible economy and a dicey world security scene but he didnt start blaming others (aside from a few jibes at President Carter) but he got to work. He sat down with the very liberal and stubborn Tip O'Neill and found areas of agreement, ways they could improve our laws. He sat down with the Russians and did the same. He worked to roll back regulations and give people room to improve their own lives because he knew that was the best course and he wanted us to know that, too. His idealistic words also inspired generations to look at government differently. It is up to us to continue his work. We won't get there perfectly, but we can make improvements and strive for progress just as he did. In America, anything is possible.
