September. Where
did it go? One moment it was Labor Day, and the next it was Fall. I think the
older you get, the faster time goes. Some kind of evil, diabolical trick.
Probably has something to do with Bush.
September is
playing some funny tricks on me. I find myself agreeing with Don Cooper from
The Register-Mail about the county board. Of course, heÕs way more polite than
I am. TheyÕre God awful. He suggests no leadership. I suggest no brains. The
best investment the board could make with our tax dollars is to get a good
administrator. Meeting as a committee of the whole wonÕt work because there are
way too many of them. The county board chairman should be elected at-large, and
there should be no more than 7, maybe even 5, board members. It ainÕt a big mystery.
TheyÕre headed backwards. ThatÕs a Flub.
Remember, you
heard it here first. It will be Obama in 2008. Sure, some of the old, washed-up
Democrats will be pissed. So what! Obama says itÕs too early. I say itÕs almost
too late. We need someone young, with a good heart and mind. HeÕs the best bet
out there. He doesnÕt owe any of the good-old -boys anything. He can rally the
young and disenfranchised. It will be a major Flub if he doesnÕt decide to run.
Jerry FaIwell,
the gifted right-wing Reverend from wherever, recently uttered that he hopes
Hillary Clinton gets the Democratic nomination in 2008, because nothing would
energize his constituency more, not even Lucifer himself. Unfortunately, heÕs
probably right. FaIwellÕs constituency donÕt get energized over much of
anything, mainly because of the lobotomies. Besides, Hillary ainÕt going to
run. See above. Some of his other notable utterances include 9/11 being caused
by gays and lesbians, and AIDS being the wrath of God against homosexuals. IÕm
glad heÕs a Republican. Otherwise, IÕd hand in my Democratic badge. FalwellÕs
under the mistaken notion GodÕs a Republican. HeÕs one big Flubber. He takes
SeptemberÕs Flub, hands down.
But a Flub has to
go also to Fox News for trying to out-dual Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton can make
mincemeat out of any announcer Fox News has. Bill Clinton can dodge and weave
questions better than any other politician alive. He made fools out of the
entire right-wing organization trying to impeach him. He can out-debate any
Republican alive. If he could run for the presidency again, heÕd win hands
down. The worst thing that could possibly happen to the Republicans is for Bill
Clinton to be on TV every night until the election. Fox News, that was a great
Flub. Keep up the good work.
