It is incumbent upon me to give you the best presentation I can with this OP and my further comments.
For the record, I'm married to a farmer's daughter from Iowa. My Father-in-Law was a Tank Destroyer in WW2.

None of these articles have Democrats bashing the President.
In fact, I believe the comments from the Boston Mayor are very appropriate. It's the last article.
As many of us came from Politico when they went Facebook, their QUOTES are always the best in these articles.

I've been working on the farm all year since my Mother-in-Law came of need for 24-hour health care.
The mentality one develops on the farm for work jobs is really quite amazing.
Farming is a very special way to live and raise a family, and its a different kind of fun.

So, the vast majority of the quotes you are reading are from Republicans.
Republican farmers and their politicians have quite the way with words.
It really hurts anyone when they feel people are enjoying their economic problems.

We never talk politics. We just Love each other and get the jobs done. Taking care of business.
I look forward to telling you of all that I have learned, done, and am plotting.
I most especially look forward to telling you about farm people and Farm Country.
