Happy Birthday to me !

A post showed up on my Facebook page telling me that since my birthday was coming up (I will, in fact, be 63 on Wednesday) I might want a birthday note from Hillary.

How nice.

Hillary was interested in sending ME a note.

I thought that the only decent thing was to respond. After all, she (her campaign really) went to all the trouble to send me this personal message.

The least I could no was say "NO, thank you."

When I clicked comment, there were notes from several birthday boys and girls saying that they would be tickled pink to get a birthday note from Hillary.

So I thought I ought to follow suit. I commented that I did have a birthday coming up and that I would appreciate a birthday note from Hillary ... which explained what she would do about the Keystone Pipeline and why she has not supported the return of provisions in the Glass-Stegall Act ...also, why she was not in favor of closing the revolving door between government and Wall Street.

Those were just a few of the things I would like to hear from Hillary relating to her relationship with Wall Street. There are, of course, many more questions. However, I did not want to seem impertinent in responding to her gracious offer to send me a birthday note.

I will let you know what she says.
