Good government

Lately, I’ve been feeling like we are all back in elementary school and the fourth-grade bully is principal of the school.

Enough with all the daily bombastic Shakespearean sound and fury!

Let’s get back to a government that governs for its people and not for its ratings.

There are many examples of good government, both Republican and Democratic, in the history of our great nation.

Pick one to emulate, and let’s move on.
