Because I Said So

While I watch and listen to all the yelling, posturing, pontificating, etc., I can only think one thing.  Sounds like my kids when they start to protest and whine “It’s not my fault.  I didn’t do it.  Why do I have to help?” and I say “I know it’s not your fault.  I know you didn’t do it.  But you have to help clean up this mess because we help each other and that’s the right thing to do.  Plus we’ll get it done faster and be back doing what we want to do sooner.”
