Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
We need leadership to establish a national plan.

We Can Do It If

by HarryT

My God, I hate this virus
Creeping into every nook and
Crevice of our society
Why can’t we all listen to the
Doctors and scientists --
Mask up, stay six feet away
Wash hands as often as possible
No parties or large groups

Hey, folks --
This should not be a political issue
Think about it, it is a safety issue
We won’t win this war until
All of us in this country are
On the same side.

Leadership c’mon, please stand up
Show us the way to mount an effective
Defense and then pursue an aggressive offense
To once and for all defeat this foe and win the war

Make it safe for our children to go to school
Safe for us to worship together
Safe for our families to gather
Safe for us to go back to work
Safe so our world is normal again.
