You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

We'll never take aid from Cuba. It would be admitting the failure of our government to take care of its own.
Well, if we won't even take an urban search and rescue team from Canada, I suppose this is no surprise. It is a failure of our government to take care of its own, but at least Bush has his head buried firmly in the sand.
"Nobody, especially the president, would have left people unattended on the basis of race."
I really don't think that Bush is racist. I think it's one of the few good things about him. I think that he doesn't care very much for people he doesn't know, and that he pretty much only knows some superrich people. But honestly, I think he would have been just as much of an insensitive ass if they were white.
Trent Lott on MSNBC claiming he is "just like everybody else" because he lost his house.
Yep. Just like everyone else. Except he's rich, white, dry, and has multiple other residences. You know, other than that he's just like everyone else.
And in completely frivilous news, I have now seen six episodes of Farscape from my new Netflix sub. Damn. I still like Firefly better, but this is impressive.

If you like it that much after only the first six eps, Lib, you're going to have fun. Because you're not even on the rollercoaster yet. You're, like, in the middle of the line.

Had a good day yesterday and Saturday. Spent an evening at the zoo and a morning at the Wild Animal Park.
Tell! Tell! Tell!
Spent a lovely afternoon at a friend's house, entertained by her 18 month old daughter and 2 cats. Oh and she and her husband were pretty entertaining. Had gourmet hamburgers. Mmmm.
Did pretty much nothing else all weekend. Got some of that sleep I needed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just had a totally awesome, super easy dessert, which I will now share with you all: cheesecake flavor instant pudding. frozen blueberries. jarred cherries. Stir. YUM.

Yes! Like, explain how you could leave the Wild Animal Park after only a morning.

I forgot to mention, 'Suela, that I'm so glad that your mother's medical problems seem to be getting figured out anyway. The house situation sounds difficult, but it's good that you can go clean up and say goodbye. Hard, but good. Will family be going with you?

Ooh! Between disovering B5 (Fortunately, I'm borrowing a season at a time from a friend, so this isn't on my Netflix queue. Unfortunately, they have huge spoilers for future seasons on the commentaries, so I have to watch through all, then go back and borrow again for commentaries) and Farscape, I feel like I'm all SciFi all the time. I got some movies (not SciFi) from the library, and it feels almost wrong to watch them.

This is really my take. With him, but also people like Chertoff and Brown, I don't think there is a glimmer of caring, or even awareness, of people not in their own privileged millieu. But for Bush, at least, I honestly don't think race enters into it.

I view him much like Jeremy Roenick — an egotistical self-absorbed prick whose one good quality is that he isn't a bigot.

Indifference is a weapon of mass destruction.
From Dennis Kucinich's speech on the House floor. I think that this man is on par with Jay Hammond, which will probably only mean anything to Juliana, but if anyone else remembers my comments on Hammond's recent passing, you will know that this is about the highest compliment I could give a politician.
