Ted Kennedy Must Be Spinning
The Liberal Lion's seat is filled by a Republican's ass. Wow! Who'd have thunk it?
As I've admitted countless times during this year I haven't paid much attention to politics at all. I hear the griping coming from those I'd figure would gripe and I've taken a real wait-and-see attitude and have been a little hesitant to make a distinction on how things are going.
So how are things going?
Suddenly the economy in my field seems a little tighter. Here in Buffalo we are usually unaffected by economic downturns because we are barely out of the toilet bowl anyway. Seems like the water is real close these days. Just a personal observation.
And health care seems like something of a fiasco - I hear the plan is lousy, I hear the plan is good, I hear the plan won't pass and we will continue on as is - which isn't a great idea because a lot of what we have now sucks, and it seems like you're an ass for trying, ah, who the hell knows - it doesn't feel like change though - seems to be the same old fight in the house and senate - and that's what is most tiring.
And more troops to Afghanistan - thought the wars were going to be quick outs - can see why they aren't - where's Bin Laden.
One thing really did make me laugh though and that was Dick Cheney's reaction to the up and coming shoe-bomber - he used it to show that America was less safe with Obama than Bush.
Wasn't that Bush in the kindergarten chair when 09/11 went down? We are less safe because Obama himself didn't escort the guy from the plane, but 09/11 was Clinton's fault?
Couldn't those in the Obama camp have said that Bush-Cheney should have known about the shoe bomber because it happened early in Obama's turn? You can't have it both ways oh great skeet-shooter.
What-freaking-ever!
That's why I don't care anymore - just too many back-stabbing cry-babies, but at least I don't have to sit through any more W speeches.
