I keep waiting for Hillary!'s head to explode from the pressure of not
be able to say what she really thinks because she knows she wouldn't
be Senator of the Outhouse if she did.

Seriously. She is so obviously on the edge of a total meltdown that
you have to serously wonder if she's qualified to do anything. It's
entertaining to watch her keep from exploding.

I think you're right, Tom. Her 'Howard Dean' moment is coming, and it'll
probably happen during one of her laughing bouts (which seems to be her
response to any question without a memorized answer).

I would posit that we deserve what we get.

You betcha! Look in the mirror. We only have ourselves to blame.

Rudy's ad (response to Huckabee's) has got to be a classic. ?I don't know if
he's serious or if it's a parody.

The problem with the whole process, from beginning to end, is that the
folks willing to sell out enough and do all the dirty crap required to
win either the primary or the general election are *not* the sort of
people who should be leading anything, except maybe the inmate's glee
club at the appropriate penal institution.

Our representative republic isn't all that much different from the
parliamentary system the New England colonists rebelled against. Major
difference is that our aristocrats have to steal more and much faster
because they are subject to recall by the people. Other than that,
once in office politicians all behave about the same.

The Chuck of yore re-emerges! Well said.

It's astounding that only one senator was really willing to put his
nuts on the line when telecom immunity was about to pass.

It's the system. It takes so much money to run a campaign that they
have no choice but to align themselves with powerful interests -- who
will no doubt extract a price for the support.

Broken system that needs to be replaced.

Let us return to the days when Senators were approved by the several
states legislatures. This would remove the Senator(s) for life, and
return the Senate back to its original state.

Vote Ron Paul.

At least the air will smell different.

He is an isolationist.

And after that, we can reserve the vote to white men with property only.

I was teasing my daughter about that the other day when she was showing
me her 19th amendment project.
