![[PDA - Pledge For Peace - Sign the Petition.]](http://pdamerica.org/images/ads/P4P_button.jpg)
Social and political commentary from a progressive point-of-view. Centered in Kentucky and U.S. politics, but also venturing into global politics from time-to-time. This blog will especially highlight the work of Kentucky progressives, mostly Democrats, but also Kentucky Greens, and others. "I don't belong to any organized political party. I'm a Democrat." Will Rogers

Michael,
Thanks for letting us know what's up. Missed your posts, but understand the need to get a break. As we who blog regularly, this can become addictive. And, when we get too enmeshed in the issues -- well.
Our prayers are with you.
Michael,
When you step back into the blogosphere, please consider cross-posting some of your posts at BlueGrassRoots. I like your stuff and I think our community would, too.
Glad to hear you're alive and well, Michael! I was beginning to wonder if you'd somehow ended up in Room 101 for questioning :-) Enjoy your break!
Just here to say that I just finished reading your blog for the first time, and you do good work, and I can't wait for you to resume.
Thank you very much for your content. It seems very important for us.

You given wonderful article.I like this article.We can't understand politicians and politics.Democracy means for the people,by the people and to the people.In Democratic, country people have right to elect their politicians to form a good government.

Mental health means striking a balance in all aspects of your life: social, physical, spiritual, economic and mental. Reaching a balance is a learning process. At times, you may tip the balance too much in one direction and have to find your footing again. Your personal balance will be unique, and your challenge will be to stay mentally healthy by keeping that balance.

North Korea is already a formal necrocracy (government by the dead), given that Kim Il-sung –who has been dead since 1994– remains the titular head of state there.
