Re: Turns out Arianna had all the brains, Not all of 'em. We're on the attack: Message 17709345 """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" Quote: There's a telling anecdote in Robert Caro's "The Years of Lyndon Johnson: Master of the Senate," the latest volume in his biography of LBJ. When Johnson was in House of Representatives, broke and going nowhere, he asked his rich backers in Texas if they could find him some income. When they offered him a job in the oil business, he turned them down. His backers then realized the extent of Johnson's ambition -- he wanted to be president, and the people would never put an oil man in the White House. It's amazing how voters' judgments have declined in 50 years. We not only have an oil man as president, we have one who wasn't successful in the business -- until now. sfgate.com And we both know that "now" can be very fleeting. And in the case of the unfortunate mistake the Supreme Follies made, the sooner the better. Can we get rid of insane in-Justices? Message 17708849 This horse's a$$ is a clear and present danger to democracy. He needs to go. NOW!
