    COMPROMISE IS THE ONLY SOLUTION

    COMPROMISE IS THE ONLY SOLUTION

    Finger-pointing, blame, obstinate political leadership, stubborn inability to compromise, allegations of criminal wrongdoing, indecisive leadership, interruption in services, gridlock, instability and uncertainty all leading to government shutdown. I had intended to write a column this week about the budget crisis in Washington and the shutdown of the Federal government over the holidays.

    HONORING SERVICE TO OTHERS

    With the passing of President George H.W. Bush last week, we are given an opportunity to honor the contributions of an individual public servant. Our political focus is so torn apart today that both sides have already lined up to laud too much praise and to ascribe too much blame to this single individual.
