I'm much more attractive online.
You were expecting someone svelte and cutsie behind all this insight and wit? Perish THAT thought!

Well, the svelte part, anyway.

From politics (moderates who lean to the right) to Pogo (drools during poker stare) to rants (Whatcha expect from savvy, sassy sexagenarians?) to raves (Have you had your kudo today?) -- we never take ourselves too seriously.

We do, however, reserve the right to slaughter an occasional sacred cow. And in case we fail to mention it -- we will never forget....

The Senate Sell-Out

How can a coalition of "grand bargainers" under the leadership of two of the most questionably unstable members of the Senate -- meeting in seclusion beyond their counter-parts, constituents and Constitutional due process -- be so out of tune with American sentiment?

It was easy. 

Our legislative process and the guardians of our very survival were manipulated by self-serving elitists who sold out to corporate-moguls and capitalists -- placing themselves above our Constitution and the welfare of  this nation.   

No matter that millions of Americans called, wrote letters, sent emails, faxed or responded to polls expressing opposition to the pending McCain-Kennedy coalition for immigration reform.  The deal was already "cut" -- sans public awareness and political process -- by corporate lobbyists, Presidential favor and special interest funding.

And when the McCain-Kennedy Senate coalition could not openly ignore the rules of legislative procedure -- they were supported by the likes of Harry Reid in circumventing them.

Voters must remember the Senators who conspired in the shadows (albeit, in the name of those who supposedly live there) to orchestrate -- not only a facade of bipartisanship -- but the demise of our nation as we know and love it.

If we must rely on the leadership of our Senate, America needn't worry about the threat of jihad or securing our borders and ports.  

When our government allowed a coalition to secretly construct a law  designed to meet the greeds needs of corporate America, the proverbial jihad sword was raised by our own elected custodians.

When 64 members of the Senate voted to "consider" this reform, that proverbial sword fell ....

Remember these names.  There are 64.  During the upcoming debate, up to 4 will have the opportunity to "reconsider" their vote.  It's the game they play, you see.  They'll offer some idealistic bullshit excuse for voting "aye" to consider the bill -- relishing all the while whatever favor they copped in the process.  Hold them accountable for this legislative travesty:

And pray that, even If our sell-out Senators can't hear us, the "House" of the people will.
