I haven't been getting excited about anything lately, plus things going on, so day after day has gone by with no additions!!
Since hardly anyone is reading this (just a couple of close people :-)) ) there is really no loss. But it's about time for a quote.
from Jonah Goldberg
"Once you become a liberal, you can wax eloquent on the glories of the public schools while sending your kids to private
school. You can wax prolix about the greedy rich while making a fortune on the side. You can even use the government to
impose your values willy-nilly, from racial quotas and confiscatory tax rates to draconian environmental policies and sex-ed
for grade schoolers--all of which will be paid for in part by people who disagree with you."
and from Peggy Noonan:
" Do you ever get the feeling that at this point Washington is run by two rival gangs that have a great deal in common with
each other, including an essential lack of interest in the well-being of the turf on which they fight?"
And so Thompson is about to declare he is in the contest. It will be interesting to see whether, in actual running, he arouses
the interest he has accrued during the time he was "only thinking " about running.
While the Republicans do not deserve to win anything but disgust, the country doesn't deserve Hillary Clinton. Her disapproval
rating may be 52% but will the disapproval of the Republicans be so far above that she will get the job by default?
There is a website detailing everything there is to learn about Romney. First of all, I want one doing the same thing to Hillary.
Second, with this type of thing becoming common, will anyone decent ever want to run.
