Common Sense from the Purple State - Hardback

Difficult issues have been placed at the doorstep of our country. Challenges that we are quickly realizing the people we have elected to lead us are ill-equipped to handle. Timely decisions and effective action on thorny issues such as immigration, the war on terrorism and energy reform-just to name a few-have yet to materialize. Instead, a spectacle of scandal, finger pointing and fruitless bickering greets the American taxpayer. <br /><br /> It has become obvious that it is ridiculous to blame any one individual or administration for the difficult position we find ourselves in today. We have arrived here-make no mistake-through generations of good intentions followed by bad decisions. <br /><br /> Here, in the Purple State, we know that national change must first begin in our own lives and in our own hometowns. We believe that there is a lot of good old common sense to be found here... Some thoughts that we hope our friends firmly rooted in the Red and the Blue states might take a moment to consider.
