Edward R. Murrow caught my eye. It’s a simple quote but he makes a good point.
"Our major obligation is not to mistake slogans for solutions."
Can it be we can have a hip hopping day because a slogan says so? Would you try to curb depression based on an advertisement that says Sunny Flakes can brighten your morning? Be advised, problems cannot be solved by heeding snappy sentences created to make you believe there is an easy cure for anything if you buy the product...and that goes for politics, too. M. Beatty
