Democracy
(2)
Back from the 'fridge with beer #4. Buzzing nicely. Hardball is on. I missed Dylan, darnit. Politicwise, my recent observations of it on tv are superficial but fascinating: my favorite Senator and my favorite (Kootch just appeared in the doorway saying, 'Boy it's good!' while stirring a bowl of her favorite bean dip - Yum) President are totally at odds over the result of recent negotions with the Republicans concerning economic policy. My superficial knowlege of the issues involved leaves me with no real opinion at the moment, but I must say that I liked the emotional displays on both sides. Finally, President O'Bama seems irritated! I love it! And Bernie Sanders is being consistently the 'Outraged Socialist.' My impression of The Republicans is, on the other hand, a 'two thumbs down.' Republicans are the Money Party. Democrats are the People Party. Karl Marx vs Aynn Rand with the truth somewhere in between. (Off to the 'fridge for another beer - #5 - buzzing my brains out.) In my opinion, 'Money' has outweighed 'reason' since the idiot Bush was elected. I thought that after the most recent presidential election Reason would make significant gains, but Reason has been a slower horse than expected. I attribute this result to 'Democracy.'
