FOOL ME ONCE, shame on you.

Some of the most melancholy letters and e-mails that are sent to me are from people who lament that there is nothing they can do about the bad policies that they see ruining this country.... [T]he letters they send to their Congressmen are either ignored or are answered by form letters with weasel words. They feel powerless.

Sometimes I remind them that ... if politicians can't do anything else right, they can count votes.

What matters is that you let him know what you are for or against and, when enough people do that... politicians get the message, because they know their jobs depend on it.

Fool me twice .... I don’t think that’s going to happen.
