Be careful what you wish for, you may get it. Bush was not a conservative; not the man who ran for election. Neither was Clinton. Politicians say what they need to say to get elected. Then, in office, they morph. Even before taking office, I see O \”morphing\”.

Bush is the epitome of conservatism. He hates government and to prove how bad government is, he did what all conservatives do, he governed badly, incompetently, fraudulently and criminally. Conservatives say that government is the problem and they certainly prove it when they gain power.

Broken Cord: An Anthology of Writing on Alzheimer’s and Dementia

We are looking to raise seed money for an anthology of writing on Alzheimer’s and dementia. The anthology will be the first project from a new small press. All proceeds will go to research and care groups. Contributors who donate $20 or more will get copies of the anthology and a mention on the acknowledgements page. Writers, we are looking for poems, fiction, and essays on dementia and Alzheimer’s. They can be from any perspective — care-givers, family, the person with dementia.

Contribute here.
