This morning I awoke to CNN with John McCain speaking. Beneath his face, I read a title indicating he was speaking about the economic crisis. He spoke VERY briefly, then began a litany about world health, education etc. THEN, a subtitle noted that the "feed" was being provided via by "Clinton's Globalization Group." Obama showed up half an hour later and did the same thing. Millions of dollars are noted to go to this globalization organization......????? What is wrong with this picture? We are up to our keesters in alligators and like most attention deficit sufferers, we want to talk about something else???? Or...IS it something else? Is Clinton's Globalization Organization going to get some of our TAXPAYER 700 Billion dollars??? Some of the 1.5 TRILLION dollars????? Where was the news media...why this specific "feed"??? Did anyone else see this and have the same questions that I do???? Are we to provide our financial institutions with OUR money in order to prevent a deep, deep depression...or are they blowing smoke???? How can they tell us, "Oh by the way, we need millions for health care for africa, education for....??? Whaaaaat?

Hello, micro...How are you? Haven't seen you in a while. You doing okay? I'm beginning to think all this fallderall is just "smoke" to disrupt the election process. If this country is THIIIIIS (measuring off 1 hairs width between thumb and index finger...lol) close to a deep deep depression, then how can ANYONE in or out of government want MORE from us for other countries problems with health care, education etc.????? An analogy....I cannot help you clean your house until I clean my own house...THEN, I can help you clean your house...then, the two of us can help our elderly neighbor clean HER house. In essence, we cannot possibly do it all in one day...the U.S. has to get its house in order...THEN we can help others. CLEARLY, that isn't the way this corrupt government thinks. I hope EVERYONE in this country has a spit fit and says NOT ONLY NO TO THE BAIL OUT, BUT HELLLLLLLLLL NO TO THE BAILOUT....and, for the near term, NO TO CLINTON'S GLOBALIZATION GROUP. WE do not have health care for even AVERAGE wage earners in this country...DO NOT FURTHER DEGRADE AMERICA IN ORDER TO GIVE OTHER COUNTRIES WHAT WE DO NOT YET HAVE OURSELVES! You know, this reminds me of my father. When I was a little girl he bought her a new washing machine. Then, came home one day and said his sister did not have a washer...so he loaded up my mother's and took it to his sister. He promised my mother another new one. A year later my mother was still washing clothing for a family of four in the bathtub...backbreaking work. My mother is 85 and STILL mad at my dad for that...and I don't blame her.

welll...that fourth line from the bottom is gibberish...it should read "When I was a little girl he bought MY MOTHER a new washing......" Sorry, guys. Continued......In effect, our politicians and government are "hauling off OUR money when we need it desperately for this country...and I, for one, resent the heck out of that. I don't mind helping others, but we need to get our priorities straight. If these buzzards want to be REMEMBERED, let it be for getting THIS country straight. Give US health care. Educate OUR children. It won't be long before Venezuela's Chavez and Castro will be donating money to us to educate our kids and to establish a health care system here...because we will be a third world country. The politicians in this country are a disgrace.

Sorry, folks...I am really angry today. Just when you think you have heard it all, there's more loopy stuff flying at ya! Our government is worse than a disgrace. I think I'll take a few years off, stop voting, stop watching news.. ....just contemplate my navel! I am 65 years old and I think I've earned the right to not give a hoot anymore....hmmmm...wish I had some confetti to toss into the air...wheeee...just go ahead and wig out.....

Ave,

They really got your BLEEP in a bunch, today! I’m fine and thanks for asking. I'm really excited, I got two showdowns this weekend: Obama v. McCain and Washington v. Dallas!

Last night, I was listening to Tony Blair’s interview on Charlie Rose. What I found interesting was his talk about his international work through his foundation. I knew about Billy C’s foundation and Jimmy C’s work, too. It seems that western heads of state feel compelled to solidify their legacy by continuing to work for the betterment of mankind after their official service and I think that that is commendable.

But, to direct resources that are needed at home to over seas, in order to fulfill their personal legacy aspirations are, without a doubt, wrong. Private resources are one thing. Public resources are another.

BTW, don’t give up just yet Ave, I think your hoots are kind’a cute.

Welllll....I bow quickly in several directions and toss a bit of confetti into the air. Appreciate the kind words, Linebacker and Micro. Y3...man of few words....please tell us how we get the government we deserve? I didn't vote for the current buzzard...not EVEN the first time he ran...much less the SECOND time he ran for office. Y3, just go ahead and vote for Obama...at least we might get out of the 1950s mentality we are faced with. I know you are going to get really mad because you are a conservative...but, look where conservatism has gotten us. Yeah...Y3, just swallow hard, go to the polls on election day and touch screen for Obama. At least when everything continues down the drain we can do it in 21st century style...not in "complete reversal of the development of mankind" that we see on the other side. Wonder if anyone has told Palin what causes babies????
