When I think back over 2005 I see that many of my wishes came true! After the shrub’s 2nd appointment, I was down but figured if given enough rope this administration would implode!
[I love to mix my metaphors:)]<\/p>\n
Lived in D.C. long enough to have learned and seen that power corrupts – no matter if you are a D, an R or an I or if you are inside or outside the administration. If you have a position seen as having power and access – you do most anything to hold onto it!<\/p>\n
So the crooks, led by the cheer-leader-in-chief, or is it now the cokehead-in-chief? or the liquorbrained-in-chief? He is so often more incoherent than usual he either is back to abusing substances or his years of debauchery have taken a big toll on whatever brain he had. He’s an embarrassment to the country and to the world.<\/p>\n
I read that he is on his “ranch” dealing with the alleged “brush.” Its not a ranch I gather it was a pig farm and as for his brush dealings – I think he’s out there drinking…he’s not the type to do physical labor – he hires people for that – its a family tradition. And he rides his mountain bike – hip hip hooray – gotta keep buff for the next costumed performance….[he has more costumes than do my gay queen friends] – is there a connection between his interest in his body and those costumes and gayness? I think so – go back and read my April 28 entry.<\/p>\n
Anyway I digressed – a trait of mine – I am a happier camper heading into 2006… The repugs have fires to put out all over the place..indictments, upcoming hearings on illegal spying, a supreme court appointment hearing that worries them, other repugs running as fast as their fat little legs can take them – AWAY from the shrub…. Cunningham admitting guilt, Abramoff probably working out a plea, “lesser” Enron people [remember Enron?] pleading and maybe testifying against the higher ups… I only hope that some progressives stay out there swinging away at what this administration is doing – I have almost given up on the Dem leaders – most of them are repugs in dem clothing- why else are they so quiet? I bet the mantra is stay center, stay in Iraq, don’t rock the boat…well that kind of thinking has lost them power and will continue to keep them out of power- we need leaders who LEAD – not try to stay center.<\/p>\n
We all need to take a pledge to not support ANY candidate who does not make a speedy end to the Iraq war a priority in their campaign. So John Kerry, Hillary and Joe Lieberman – bye bye…and I have added that unless you represent ME and not the corporations I will work against you even if you are a D…<\/p>\n
There are those who say electing D’s will get us chairs of committees. I respectfully disagree..what matters who the chair is if you are still a repug and only put on a costume like the shrub does?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
