Well….today’s the day that politics restart in DC and I have been waiting a long time to get some topics to write about…I know there are plenty of other things I could do…sports, science, and space to name three but there is just nothing like politics to highlight the absurdity of where the country is right now….so this one is going to be just a preview of things to come….I found it funny that the first thing on the repubs agenda is passing of the supposed “jobs” legislation that would authorize the Keystone pipeline…even though it will mean a total of about 35 permanent jobs if that many…but the thing I find even funnier is that the WH has promised to veto any pipeline bill…I wonder how many times they will pass this one and have it vetoed before they learn that it’s never going to happen unless Obama decides to approve it? The second bit that I am really looking forward to is the Obamacare repeal legislation that the repubs say is second on the agenda…okay, repubs…go ahead, try to take healthcare away from 20 million Americans with nothing to replace it with….another veto certainty and the political ads will write themselves…we need the dems to be dems in the next election…. not repub lite…let’s go back to FDR for the principles for our side….they are still salient after all these years…stand for something, not just against the other side….geez…
