The Good, the Bad-and-the-ugly
Today seems downright balmy -- Imagine, -13 with fairly low winds!
Listened to some of Bush's State of the Union Address. I honestly can't believe that man is the President of the United States. He speaks as though he has no idea what he's saying. He's just reading, with the same lousy inflection no matter what he's talking about. He has no conviction, no belief, no detectable intellect or wisdom. None. Nothing. All he brings to the presidency, as far as I can see, is a willingness to be manipulated by stronger men than he.
If he gets re-elected this November I'm gonna freak out. Well, maybe not freak out, but possibly break down and cry. When you think of the truly great leaders the US has elected in its history, this fool makes you wonder where in the world that great country (and contrary to most of my friends, I think it is a great country) is going.
Surely there must be someone -- Republican or Democrat -- who can show this guy up and wipe the floor with him come primary or election time. Or is this the Dark Age of American politics?
