Writin’ ’bout Romney

I’ve been writing about Mitt Romney. It’s more maddening than merry. I’ve been warned not to read the comments. Truth is, the comments don’t bother me. I think it’s grand we live in a country where we can respectfully disagree. Sometimes the definition of “respect” is a little stretchy, of course.

Here’s where I talk about the Romney’s lack of compassion. And please don’t mention church tithing here. I’m not talking about obligatory compassion; I’m talking about the organic kind of compassion that makes you want to reach out of yourself to reach out to someone else when there is no one watching.

And here’s my latest on my take on last night’s debate. Some say it’s not personal, it’s politics. I say it’s political because it’s personal.
