Hi Mal
Yeah, but even the mentally challenged kid gets a gold star from time to time. What did it for me wasn't the way he scored in school, it was the way he tortured the English language our fighting men and women fought so hard throughout our history to maintain. It might sound un-liberal, but I miss the man. I disagreed with a few of the things from that blog, but realize it wasn't the specifics, but the general steps behind all our troubles::: that that blog nailed. What saddens me further, is that regardless of the rudeness and blatant "hush little baby, your opinion doesn't count" cast toward those who disagree with some. Even they have to admit,:::but won't::: that regardless of what congress does and the president does or doesn't do? There is the facts that between the two, there wasn't two pieces of legislation passed and signed into law by the president that did any good for this country, else we wouldn't even be talking about it. Add it up, not one veto, as is his right, between 2001 and 2007. One year later, we are in the worst economic crisis:::CRISIS::: not troubles or problems, but CRISIS. And to those who love to point to the auspices of congressional power and blame, it wasn't the libs in complete and utter power that non veto-ing seven years. Oh yeah::: I heard too that Clinton signed the regulation to deregulate weeks ahead of W taking office, The omnibus budget?::: was congress' doing, not Clinton::: and who owned congress that night? Plus such budgetary practice should be outlawed.
Sweet sister Sadie, there it is. Now we have a congress and president with no clue, the "Lib. culture" in utter danger and what seems like the ultimate failure::: and the very same neo-con bandits who robbed our tax base, job market, and financial infrastructure are poised to get it back. The dems are lost it seems and cannot get out of their own way. You have to give those neo-cons credit, they know how to organize and steel to the likes of The 40 Thieves. Truth really is stranger than fiction.
Excuse me I have a lobbyist to see, my HMO is starting to tremble.
