.... these Republicans from the moment the right wing activist Supreme Court swept GWB into office in Nov of 2000 up until the time they get off this evil schtick of screwing the people in favor of the 1%. Bill Clinton reminds us that this too shall pass, but with everything that has gone down for these 13 years, I'm more than a little frightened that Democracy has been trampled to the ground. The American People cannot seem to see the tip of their noses and keep giving us Republican Congresses. This needs to be drilled into their minds:The President PROPOSES, and the Congress DISPOSES. The President can beg them to write legislation. He can sign and veto legislation. And he can make appointments to his cabinet, and nominate judges and Supreme Court Justices. But he CANNOT write legislation!


On a lighter note, from Ellen Degeneres: Q.) Why does is the bookcase so confident?
A.) Because it has such high "shelf esteem."

Also, We have a Pope. Whoop-t-du.
