Wow, the MadCow is
going ballistic over the fact that the Boehner Fun House could not
even get enough votes to pass a simple funding bill, not for even a
two hour stay in efforts to keep the Homeland Security detail
employed and keeping the nation's airport Starbucks afloat! Just long
enough for Boehner to get some “Fake Bake” time. But who gives a
“Freakin la dee da”, as the dedicated men & women of the TSA
will make a show, even if a paycheck is but a suggestion – its
called “American Spirit” dedication, a.k.a. Patriotism. Imagine
“Congress” working without pay! Or doing something constructive
for what we pay the thugs in slug mode. But the MadCow will be off
the air soon, and peace and quiet will prevail and behave again. Just
like Congressional priorities come the weekend, MSNBC fills the
airways with “Bubba Breaking In New Prisoners – the Rules &
Regulations of Proper Shower Etiquette”. What kind of news' chain
must resort to this kind of shame to keep its advertisers? But here
is a litmus test. Why is there an age discrimination between a U.S.
Congressmen and a U.S. Senator? No not a tricky-Dick question, as the
difference of 25-years of age & 7-years a United States Citizen
in “Good Standing” for a representative verses 30-years &
9-years in “Good Standing” for a Senator, it was based on the
founders concern upon “maturity” in office. “By its
deliberative nature, the Senatorial Trust
called for a greater extent of information and stability of character
than would be needed in the House of Representatives.” Oh,
that in “Good Standing” was stricken from the requirements in
1993, with the 103th Congress as there was already a rumor
that Bill Clinton was a pervert. Anyway, there was a reason as too
why the Senate must act as the more mature body, as when a group of
“Fake Bake Bozos” like Boehner & cohorts hits town, it is
just an “Animal House” mentality. So when the House is not in
agreement with the Senate, just have a kindergarten “Timeout”,
and recite after me:
Share
everything. Play fair. Don't hit people. Put things back where you
found them. Clean up your own mess. Don't take things that aren't
yours. Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody. Wash your hands
before you eat. Flush. Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you.
Live a balanced life - learn some and think some and draw and paint
and sing and dance and play and work every day some. Take a nap every
afternoon. When you go out into the world, watch out for traffic,
hold hands, and stick together. Be aware of wonder. Remember the
little seed in the styrofoam cup: The roots go down and the plant
goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that.
Goldfish and hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in
the Styrofoam cup - they all die. So do we. And then remember the
Dick-and-Jane books and the first word you learned - the biggest word
of all - LOOK. Everything you need to know is in there somewhere. The
Golden Rule and love and basic sanitation. Ecology and politics and
equality and sane living. Take any of those items and extrapolate it
into sophisticated adult terms and apply it to your family life or
your work or your government or your world and it holds true and
clear and firm. Think what a better world it would be if all - the
whole world - had cookies and milk about three o'clock every
afternoon and then lay down withour blankies for a nap. Or if all
governments had a basic policy to always put thing back where they
found them and to clean up their own mess. And it is still true, no
matter how old you are - when you go out into the world, it is best
to hold hands and stick together ~ Founding
Father Robert Fulghum
