It’s Collins and Herbert today. Ms. Collins, in “What Happened in Vegas,” says the John Ensign sex scandal has become even more fascinating because every social conservative in Washington seems to have been involved. Mr. Herbert, in “The Human Equation,” says the crisis staring America in its face and threatening to bring it to its knees is unemployment.<br /><a href="http://mgpaquin.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow"><br /> Here they are</a>.</p> <p>The coffee and tea are ready, and I’ve got French toast made with challah. The cold drinks are in the fridge for later, and I’m headed out to have another cup of tea in the garden. It’s a lovely morning here, 68° and a soft breeze. I’m going to enjoy it before it heats up. Have a great day.</p> Good morning, pups. It’s Collins and Herbert today.

Here they are.

The coffee and tea are ready, and I’ve got French toast made with challah. The cold drinks are in the fridge for later, and I’m headed out to have another cup of tea in the garden. It’s a lovely morning here, 68° and a soft breeze. I’m going to enjoy it before it heats up. Have a great day.

Too bad the whole country couldn’t have seen it but then the corporate media is better served by keeping the people ignorant and in a stupor.</p> Moyers had another great program last night with a health insurance whistleblower.

That compromise would have been obvious if mention of single-payer had been permitted. Isn’t there an adage to the effect of he who defines the issue controls the outcome?</p> Yes.

I’m going to call it a night. I’ve had insomnia the last few nights and indulged in spiral dark thoughts. Not fun.<br /> Tonight I’m going to count sheep and give each one a face…Boehner,Mitchell,Gonzales[ newly employed] Bachman, Palin, etc. It kind of worries me that I actually can conjure up the face that goes with the name. I’m going to visualize sending each one over the cliff.<br /> Can’t hurt.<br /> Good night, sweet dreams.</p> Well. I’m going to call it a night.
