TommyLog – Find Common Ground!

Hey Kids it’s Dad, and for today’s TommyLog I want to talk about the 2016 election. Talking politics tears families apart, tears friends apart, and does absolutely no good. Social media has become a minefield. It is just horrible what is happening!!

The election is over!

We need to find common ground!

We need to spend more time serving others and trying to solve problems. Everybody has an opinion, but few get swayed by the arguments that are going on. It’s crazy. We have a brand-new President elect. Whether you like it or not that office deserves our respect. We need to line up behind him and make sure that he is successful. I want him to fail just about as much as I want the pilot of my plane to crash land. We need to succeed. We need to succeed together.

The only way we can do it is to find common ground!

TommyLog – Things are not as they seem…

Kids, we live in a day and age where people will say and act in a way that’s deceptive. It’s hard to separate the truth from the false. So many stories and so many people telling us what we want to hear. Both at work and on TV. How do we know? You need to trust your heart. If that’s not good enough, trust in the Lord. He has yet to let us down.

TommyLog – Exciting Election Times in Wisconsin

Kids, what an exciting time it was to be in Wisconsin. The election is all people have been able to talk about since Gov Walker took office. Right, wrong he has got people attention and the recall election was the culmination of that attention. I’m not much for political ads of robo-calls, but watching the process and the passionate people on both sides tackle the issues… AMAZING!

Sadly one has to win and the other, well they are less of a winner as the politically correct crowd may say.

One way or another, it was fun to be a part of this election. Cheers to the winner, and see you in November for the next presidential election!

TommyLog: Loud and Clear

Well the people have spoken and I think there was a clear message. People are not happy with whats going on. Right or wrong, people are really not pleased. Wisconsin has a new Governor, new representatives in the House and Senate and a new tone has been set. Its such a divisive topic and speaking to friends about politics is not something I feel comfortable doing. It never ends well.

The one thing to learn is that this changing of the guard happens every 2-4 years. I have seen it before and it will happen again. We will get through this and we will move forward. I guess the big point is this. When you are hired by the people to do a job, listen to what they say and do their will or this type of thing will happen over again.

Good luck guys, you got your wish..now get ready to go to work!
