Compromise and Life

Ah, the Democrats and yes, the Republicans.
Will the disparate factors of our American life come together ever?
There is compromise in this country only after bitter bickering and fighting and much time in the argument itself.
One thing seems to have united our differences for a day or so: Hurricane Gustav.
The Republicans postponed to beginning of the convention in Saint Paul, Minnesota, our current President is in the Gulf states and the Democratic Convention is pooling money to send a block of it to the Red Cross or another charitable group and get it that way for help, food, medical and what will be needed.

Gustav has passed and was not the terrible tragedy of Katrina.
Behind are Hurricane Hannah,and tropical storms Ike and Josephine already.
They are on their way across the Atlantic Ocean coming from the heat of the Sahara.
