Well, good morning
Judge - How are you today?
"We are not
final because we are infallible, we are infallible
because we are final." Remember,
Bushfaces, he gets to appoint judges to that club.
For life. We're talking Gene Siskel
coming back with half a brain and loving Babe: Pig
In The City life.
I'm also confused by
the fact that the candidate who wants to put the
power back in the states' hands went running like
a bitch to the Federal Courts.
Speaking of Bush, I
realized something else I hate about him.
After watching Gore's exceptional (in content
& delivery) concession speech, I realized
that while other people write politician's
speeches - they need to be delivered as if they're
coming from the speaker's own thoughts. It's
called being a communicator. It's
called Public Speaking 101. You want
robotic? That's W. You want stiff?
That's W. You want someone who seems like
he's listening to the words resonating in his own,
empty skull - having no idea whatsoever about what
he's saying? That's W. Be honest here,
Republicans. You know it's true(©).
As I may NEVER understand why anyone would
vote for him, we've apparently got him for 4
years. And, as the Republican's have turned
Washington into an arena of scrutinizing the
person, not the job he's doing, we'll see if the
poor little rich boy survives. It's going to
be an interesting ride, kids.
Favorite Song Of All
Time This Week©: "Mystery
Achievement" - Pretenders
Actually, the only
thing more depressing than Bush's immanent
presidency is that 12/15/00 may be the last Howard
Stern broadcast.
The concession of
Gore also brings us our first unkept political
promises: I haven't seen For Sale signs in
front of Alec or Bab's houses...
