Somebody's got to do it...they say....
Hey!  Thanks ever-so-much for sticking by me, 'ol gal.  Sorry if my prose is getting denser but I need to practice finding ways to summarize my stuff, and these blog entries are all writing exercises for me.  I'm afraid that what I'm trying to get across will get lost in all the detailed explanations so I'm trying to encapsulate more information into smaller pieces of writing....  I apologize for the density.  Someday, perhaps, I'll find a happy medium between detail and trying to progress through the ideas too fast.

azur, feeling knee deep in poor analysis, I would rather just be
given the facts and do the rest myself....maybe they analyze better in your neck of the woods....

Trouble is..........................
well where does one begin?

Trouble is that people feel compelled to justify their lousy choices and complete lack of vision.
I suppose they feel it is better to say they belong to something than to think. I don't want reporter's opinions in general but I crave and fall upon good analysis on those rare occasions that I find it.

maj, I'm thinking of the women in Congress in the past, like

Barbara, cut the  BS, Jordan.

I want Molly Ivins in charge of something, like being presidential press secretary or white house press secretary. I used no capital letters as I disrespect the posts right now.

I see the women, gone now, who used to stand up in Congress and tell the truth and I want them to take over as majority leaders, and have them chase the lobbyists out like the merchants  from Chuy's biblical temple.

I want so much.  I'm a needy woman, needing intelligence, honesty, thriftiness and peacemongering as parts of our national agenda and leadership.

I don't find the new ignorant, superificial cynicism amusing, cute, nor part of the news reporting which I want to hear. I want NO OPINIONS from the reporters.

Sigh, be quiet benzinha and go drink your tea.

Don't get me started.

We need Mother TEresa to come back and take over...except for the bunch who disrespect anything female.

Her sponsor could take care of them!
