| Somewhere in this brain is my foreign policy. And it'll be great! |
I'm not sure this has happened to everybody, but at a point or two in my life I became involved with a woman that was just absolutely crazy fun and extremely compelling in an almost irresistible way. A week or two, maybe three, even maybe a couple of months, and then something fizzled out or I just stopped calling, or she did. I walked away, shaking my head with a half-smile on my face, half missing her but knowing I had clearly dodged a bullet.
These experiences are the stuff of both rom-coms and psychological thrillers. But when it comes to politics, the less of this the better.
But, oh noes!, the GOP couldn't shake their crazy girlfriends this year. (Or boyfriends, whatever.) At some point the Ego (Republican elites) lost control of the Id (Republican base), while the Super Ego (er, David Brooks?) sat around saying, "This can't be happening, this can't be happening, this can't be happening!"
Sorry, Charlie, it's happening.
Now the Koch brothers are talking about how they could support Clinton. I know that's like offering Hillary a poisoned apple, but I can imagine rational Republicans hearing that and saying, well, it sort of makes sense. gulp.

Well, that's it, no links, no read this or that article. But I'll leave you with the thought that, this is all good for the Democrats, right? I mean, up and down the ticket, right? Then I think of hanging chads and 2000. Gulp.
And then I think of that scene in Fatal Attraction when the Glenn Close character turns to Michael Douglas and says, "I'm not going to be JUST IGNORED!!" And then I think of that crazy girlfriend that was fun for ten minutes back in the day and thank my lucky stars.
The GOP is still trying to figure out how to shake her (or him, it's an analogy...).
Great anology!
ReplyDeleteTwo aspects continue to persist in the preacher's sermon: the first is the standard water fall - the very Water of Lifestyle. The second is the cup with which is attracted motivation upon exposure. It is the cup that is provided us, you and me, from which we drink; let us keep in mind where the standard water came from. While many preachers do make an impression on, many furthermore do not. They combine the standard water fall, and though they may absence no exposure, they don't have the motivation of a C.H. Spurgeon to provide an email 'worthy' of preserving lifestyles for Christ (so some might say). Yet, no concept about Christ is, therefore, insufficient; only to the evaluating ear and the cautious eye - missing to toothpicks of fact and enigmas of eloquence. crossword puzzle help
