Erewhon is an allegorical novel by one Samual Butler written, as I recall, in the 18th Century. It is nowhere, spelled backwards. Read it in high school.

Yup, Gerry,
I do love it when they turn up the heat under my favorite candidate for president. She needs to be told stuff like this, repeatedly. Inside the beltway they can't see things the way we do "out here" in the "boonies."
The tendency to brand "beg to differ" as "seditious" is too strong in DC to not be wary. To be accused is as good as convicted when the news gets it into it's rumenent belly to be chewed and swallowed again and again. Just look at the Swift Boat brouhaha--ot a shred of truth, but it was taken as fact from endless repetition.
I think Senator Clinton can brave it, hell, she might even be saving all out denunciation of the war until the last minute when the time for hawkinsh retaliation has run out. That's what I would suggest to her if anyone asked. I do like the "plantation" salvo she threw. That got good repetition in the dog wagging media tail. Molly is enough of a high profile voice to g et her attention about how much we detest the war, and that's a good thing, as Martha would say.
Best,
Frances

Mike,
I guess this would qualify you as a druggie. What on earth are all these
scripts for?
I take an herbal cocktail I make up containing: Hawthorne Berry, American
Ginseng, Gotu Kola, Ho Shou wu, Ginkgo, and Ashwaganda. Also a male tonic
featuring Saw Palmetto and Wild Oats. For the lymph system I take Dandelion
Root, Red Root, and Ocotillo. Half and hour before big meals a squirt of
Gentian Root to get the stomach acids rolling. And for general immune system
support I take Echinacea. All these in the alcohol tincture form...equates
to maybe a quarter ounce of alcohol daily.
Prescription and over the counter drugs? Zero. For pleasure and relaxation?
Occasional tokes of the ***** varieties.

In case you missed it. Frances will love this...
