Like The Man In A Silo

Friend —

Today I asked for a joint session of Congress where I will lay out a clear plan to get Americans back to work.

Next week, I will deliver the details of the plan and call on lawmakers to pass it. Whether they will do the job they were elected to do is ultimately up to them.

But both you and I can pressure them to do the right thing. We can send the message that the American people are playing by the rules and meeting their responsibilities—and it’s time for our leaders in Congress to meet theirs. And we must hold them accountable if they don’t.

So I’m asking you to stand with me in calling on Congress to step up and take action on jobs:

Sisyphus Stone [Reader Post]

Donald Trump has changed everything, right now O’BigEars finds himself standing naked at ocean edge as the tide pulls out for a major tsunami. He is Sisyphus pushing the stone up the slope and the slope is getting steeper. This dilemma can be such a crush forcing a complete reevaluation and possible resignation. For me, such an attitude can be a one-way ticket to the psych-ward; but remember the verse, “woe comes not in single form it comes in swarms.” (Shakespeare).
