It is true that blogging about politics is not one to garner many friends but it seems VM has some influence if it makes government rethink policies - good for her!!<br /><br />"Moran Taing"* Eddie for this roast =-)<br /><br />* - I'm told "moran taing" is Scots Gaelic for "many thanks"The Creative Beasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12650011991825745500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603897690317712031.post-48644557221159505492010-11-14T20:35:56.312+00:002010-11-14T20:35:56.312+00:00What a fantastic piece of artwork!

I'm not familiar with VM, but she seems like a thoughtful person, and I may have to re-think my staying away from political blogs.<br /><br />Your post on Remembrance Sunday (we celebrated Veterans' Day this past Thursday) was very touching. We can give thanks to those who sacrificed so much for us that we have the freedom to post our opinions in blogs today.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603897690317712031.post-40332121439693562702010-11-14T17:39:14.219+00:002010-11-14T17:39:14.219+00:00Good stuff.

But this proves me wrong. I can appreciate her spirit of independence to investigate real news and share her insights on her blog. Her advice to new bloggers is spot on.CiCihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08615265608675467505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603897690317712031.post-38455098161288038122010-11-13T19:23:59.525+00:002010-11-13T19:23:59.525+00:00Oh, Eddie!!

Although I am not politically minded in a big way, there was something that attracted me to her blog.Sincerity, I think. Also her neck of the woods is not far from my area.<br /><br />I agree with so many of your answers. Long posts can be off putting if you don't have very long to spare and it IS quite upsetting when a Favourite blogger suddenly disappears from the scene with no explanation of where they are ..... This has happened to me so often.<br />I would like to hear about life in Wales VM!<br />Maggie X<br /><br /><a href="http://granniemay.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Nuts in May</a>Maggie Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06183886005936250976noreply@blogger.com
