Short Memos

A couple of quick reminders for people who want very much to take the reins of power.

1) While religious faith is very much all about feeling certain that there are answers to whatever questions you have, it is NOT about being certain that only your brand of faith is in sole possession of those answers.

2) Here in the good ol' US of A, it's NOT up to the government to make good citizens; it's up to the citizens to make good government.

3) Regarding the pure arrogance of the organizers of silly things like The Values Voter Summit:  I think you're smart enough to know there aren't any voters who DON'T vote their values, so please just knock off that kinda bullshit.
