Hi Don, Re: At least that way I may appear humorless on one subject at a time. I've been reading your recent posts serially. Indeed you do seem humorless on one subject at a time. <vbg> I'm trying a new tack. Not to sit on, but to attempt to see the surreal humor in all of this. I've found that my friends aren't quite as likely to jump away from my conversation in horror when I drop a joke into some macabre discussion of C.I.A. black ops and the Mossad's agenda. It's always good to lighten up rather than blow up. * Re: Pilger's column -- I also noticed how Pilger had made Kucinich disappear. I figured that Pilger, like many others, simply regarded Kucinich as an unelectable little vegan. A sideshow candidate. While I find my politics more closely aligned with Kucinich than with any other candidate, I certainly recognized his candidacy as doomed because it was so far out of the mainstream and so underfunded. My appreciation for Howard Dean was of a different nature. Until the DLC mercilessly knifed him in the back, I thought Dean had slightly better than a snowball's chance in Hell of winning the nomination. Though I was never wildly optimistic about his chances against the Bush Corporate Crime Machine. I liked Dean not so much for his politics, which are way too conservative to really suit me, but because of his honesty and integrity. Alas, too much honesty and a big mouth and he's back on the bench. A position in life I always assumed was my fate since I cannot abide by being as much of a hypocrite as one needs to be today to succeed as a politician. * I like the idea of sticking to the main topic..... Back to our regularly scheduled programming in my next post..... unless I find some wonderful new distraction, yet again. :) Cheerio!
