While I disagree with Pope Francis on many things, I find myself in agreement with him on many other issues as well; like war and who it really serves.
Both political parties in the US have been far too eager to rely on military might and while there are many reasons for our military involvement abroad, I firmly believe that Pope Francis has explained it perfectly. In our current political landscape, money talks and nobody outspends the US Military Complex. Check out this chart detailing the military industrial complex spending from 2007 – 2017. Maybe it is time to rethink our military spending? It looks like we have plenty of money to invest in things like infrastructure, education and even paying down our deficit.
Here is a photo of a local guy some of you may already know who goes by the name, Bravo Delta. I’ve posted a few pics of him in the past at summer pool parties and the like. Bravo is a nice guy and I thought this made for a great Scruffy Sunday.
If you like what you hear / see you can still catch Well Strung performing through the rest of the summer in Provincetown at the Art House.
When you are against gun control legislation, opposed to ending the death penalty and don’t believe in providing universal healthcare I need to ask, “What about life do you value?” The pro-life movement in the Republican Party is a marketing gimmick wrapped up in religious fervor and it rings hollow to me.
I can appreciate why individuals for either reasons of faith or personal values would be opposed to abortions, but the value of life isn’t summed up by a single issue. If life is sacred then it is always so – not just as it pertains to abortion rights.

In the Summer was written by a Syrian named Nizar Qabbani. He was a poet and a diplomat who lived from 1923 – 1998. I love this poem. It has a slightly melancholic message that makes it all the more romantic, which is pretty impressive considering the entire poem is less than 40 words.
