Presidentin' is HARD!

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/politics/administration/whbriefing/

Apparently, according to CBS News, President Bush has spent approximately 20% (254 days) of his term at his ranch in Crawford. Add to that his time spent at Camp David and in Kennebunkport at the Bush Family Compound, and you're looking at more than 40% of his term. FORTY PERCENT!!!! No wonder the White House is "self-conscious" about those totals.

I guess it's true that US Government workers really do get off easy.

Always the trendsetter

"The plea for unity is not a call for uniformity. There must always be a healthy debate."

This article angers me. Whatever happened to healthy debate? Dissent is unthinkable to the current administration, right down to each and every town meeting and press event....

Got to love Dan Froomkin for pulling aside the curtain...Sorry, Wizard.

Feeling of the Moment

Someone else's fabulous blog posted on this subject today, so I figured I would take a ride on her train of thought.

Anyway...wondering if I should have made my blog anonymous? There are so many things I'd like to say, but don't, for one of the following reasons:

1. I don't want people to hate me.
2. I would prefer to leave my current job voluntarily, not at the request of my employer.
3. It's fun to talk a little smack every now and again, and I feel a bit stifled.
