ON THE BACK BURNER

 I use to be apolitical. Now I am not. I need to stop reading the news,listening to the news and talking about the news. It is making me sick. I have become obsessed. I have begun to look at friends who don't agree with me as suspect.I don't know what is true and what isn't true. How do I tell them apart? I am getting a headache. I already had a stomach ache. There is a disconnect some where here. I vote for certain candidates who I feel represent me and what I think I want and need. They said they represent my way of thinking. Then when elected, they don't listen to me. Is my thinking the problem, or are they the problem? Did I miss this in civics class that everyone needs to take in eight grade. Don't these people that I voted for know that I will be voted against them next election. I have that power ! Taking a line from a TV commercial,"I guess it doesn't matter ". It does to me.
