Well, now that the dems. are in, I do feel better. The upcoming farm bill has an ammendment slipped in (like the repubs.) which will take away the states rights to keep out genetically altered agriculture. Another bill will take away the states rights to determine where transmission lines will be located for electrical power. Rush Holt’s bill H.R. 811 will continue election theft which allows vote counting by republican owned companies who fight like crazy for a glimpse of transparency. Nancy Pelosi says impeachment is off the table. Why do I feel better?

The reasons keep building. Plus, the horror that our own citizens are paying such terrible costs for our leaders paranoid and belligerent response to 9/11…the mass security at the July 4, lost liberties, putting cameras everywhere, build up that border security..and on and on. Not to compare ourselves with those who have been subject to the war or imprisoned, but our leader has chosen to impose radical intrusions into all our lives. We will see what can be undone.

And in America, the Americans by and large hate the Junta. Even Commander Codpiece knows this as he arranges visits to American locales that entail landing a helicopter or Air Force One flight at a military base of a select state, and delivering speeches that never depart from the script written in the aftermath of “9/11″ to a vetted audience assembled at those sites. He knows he cannot face an audience who might otherwise have access to him and be able to survive, politically. By his actions, it is clear he knows he’s very much disliked by an overwhelming majority of Americans. And, indeed, they dislike him for his freedoms. He should be serving a life sentence, as far as they’re concerned. Him and his puppetmaster, Darth.

Trex, you are absolutely right to list Abu Ghraib first among the multiple reasons for the collapse of US standing in the world. More than any other event or policy, the Abu Ghraib photographs, published much more in the foreign press than here, dealt a death-blow to our standing. And rightly so.

I hate myself for my freedom.

but back to Libby: this is a pretty interesting article suggesting fitz should reopen the whole dang-blanged shabang:

I don’t see how offering Scoots immunity would compel him to do anything other than stonewall and say “I don’t recall not knowing that.” He’s already got immunity from jail, signed off by POTUS.

If I may recite an ancient saying, which is a fav of mine … Bloom wherever you are planted …

not always true petro, oh wise one, not all plants grow under the same conditions…..
i changed that saying into–
you bloom where you grow……..

The saying means that within you is the power to bloom wherever you find yourself,
although I agree with yours, it’s more practical for most people.

Ouch!

But it’s a dry heat!
Yeah, but so’s an oven!!!

I remember going to Phoenix in August on a business trip once. Our studio was 1/10 mile from the hotel, and I couldn’t bring myself to call a cab. I told my colleague I’d carry her bag, and off we went.

It was 120 degrees, and for those of you who haven’t experienced that level of hot, trust me, a breeze is not your friend.

I blame Clinton.
