Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Goodness me. I guess they're not "too pretty to work" after all.

None have served in the military, despite the serious need for well-educated officers during the wars.

They could have joined the reserves or National Guard and served a tour in Iraq or Afghanistan and returned to their civilian careers.

One is a physician, couldn't he have spent a tour treating wounded troops in Iraq or Afghanistan?

The contrast between Romney's bellicose words and what he and his family have done could not be more striking.
