"What color are your socks today?" Gibbs asked one member of the
press corps. Then it was on to the reporter "with the snappy blue tie
and hopefully darker socks," as Gibbs described his attire.
Not long after that came a (ignored) question that must have kept C-SPAN
junkies on the edge of their seats: "Does the president support Senator
Akaka's native Hawaiian government reorganization act, creating a
native Hawaiian government within the state of Hawaii?"
There were jokes about cell phones going off — "Is somebody ordering
a pizza?" Gibbs asked — and of equipment being noisily dropped —
"Careful ... this room isn't paid for!" said Gibbs. "This is just a
rental!" But there were no serious questions about what is contained in
Congress' worst-ever piece of legislation, rammed through in the middle
of the night on a party-line vote.
What, for instance, does the president think about Democrats adding
last-minute language that changes rules so parts of their bill may not
be repealed by majority vote in future Congresses? (ignored) - [IBD Editorial]

A screaming comes across the sky. It has happened before, but there is nothing to compare it to now.
ReplyDelete.....It is too late. The Evacuation still proceeds, but it's all theatre.
Some wait alone, some share their invisible rooms with others. Invisible, yes, what do the furnishings matter, at this stage of things? Underfoot crunches the oldest of city dirt, last crystallizations of all the city had denied, threatened, lied to its children. Each has been hearing a voice, one he thought was talking only to him, say, "You didn't really believe you'd be saved. Come, we all know who we are by now. No one was ever going to take the trouble to save you, old fellow. . . ."
.....There is no way out. Lie and wait, lie still and be quiet. Screaming holds across the sky. When it comes, will it come in darkness, or will it bring its own light? Will the light come before or after? [Gravity's Rainbow, V3-4]
First and foremost let me state that not even this news is going to ruin my day or our Blessed Merry Christmas. This holiday for Christians is the hope and faith we are gifted with each and everyday day. ITNOT Father Son and Holy Spirit I rest my life and soul. Drunkn' sailor mouf and all. ;-]
ReplyDeleteAS for the current destructive pattern of USA government, thanks to the E-V-Y-L-E CMFGS Libs, judgment day is coming.
MERRY CHRISTMAS to the TRKOF and all BARN ARMY members. JUICE
