And WHY does Wyoming get more money?
Around 3 o'clock this morning, there was an explosion outside the British Embassy. Basically, some guy put grenades into one of the giant cement planters outside the embassy (to keep terrorists out) and blew a good hunk out of the planter. As the Brits were voting today and there has been a heavy anti-Blair (not to mention anti-Brit/American) contingent out there, it is believed that that is a potential motive for the blast. No arrests as yet, but the search is on. ...and Wyoming gets more Homeland Security Funding...IN THE MEANTIME...
Because Abramoff swings both ways...Of course there were a couple of Democratic representatives who had to get in with lobbyist Jack Abramoff...it can't just ALL be DeLay and his people. But like DeLay trying to cover his ass and avoid the press and deny, deny, deny, Abramoff apparently in two recent NY Times and Time Magazine articles, makes himself to be the victim of these nasty politicians...and as he works with Christian Conservatives, compares himself to Job...
If there's one good thing about this whole mess with DeLay is that is has prompted somebody to run against him...Nick Lampson lost his four term gig to DeLay's "redistricting" of Texas. Now he's moving to DeLay's district, filling out papers and planning his run...
And speaking of DeLay, he's said a lot of stupid things, but Pat Robertson has said more, and according to MoveOnPAC did it again on Sunday...what's more dangerous to America than terrorists? According to Pat, it's liberal judges...yes, you read right, liberal judges are more dangerous than people out to kill us all...then again, this is the man who said that homosexuals and feminists were to blame for September 11th and that a Teletubby was gay (and out to blantantly promote his gayness!!) Is it just me or should be really just not be allowed to speak in public anymore? He seems to be that guy in the office who just says randomly offensive things out loud...except he's on national television when he does it.
And speaking of crazy people with a "message"...The "Stop Hillary!" campaign, fronted by Hillary-hater John LeBoutillier (he's FRENCH even!), isn't giving up yet despite the fact that "We’re getting some traffic, but we’re not getting donations.’
And speaking of sending a message KEEP E-MAILING!!!! E-mail, call, write, fax your friends and family, the press and your Congressfolk and let them know that you are paying attention!!
and on a more personal note, send some positive energy my way tomorrow as I have a chorus audition for New York City Opera (they finally CALLED!)...and after that, send some love to your mother as Mother's Day is this Sunday :)
Peace --Alex
