Finally Getting Rove Off Our Necks
I'm a Cleveland, Ohio-based writer, editor and writing coach, with more than 25 years of experience, including stints in Chicago and Washington, D.C. My work has appeared in more than 100 print and online publications, from the New York Times and the Christian Science Monitor to local and regional publications. My work has been recognized by awards (including an Emmy) from four journalism groups.

I envision it more of a grabbing by the throat, shaking, shouting and throwing to the concrete. The lifting off the neck image is a little too understated for me.
I prefer the thought of pouring concrete down the throat enabling a far superior sinking to the bottom of the mud flats outside DC.
I'd have to agree with you, Jill. As for you, Copfer, I'm just glad you're not Italian, because you're already using enough mob imagery as it is. But then, this gang has done enough to warrant all the abuse they have and are yet to received.
Shalom Y'all,
Can't we all just get along?
B'shalom,
Jeff
