I can't believe that there has not been a new post to this blog this year! So.... I don't have a lot to say but I am still passionate about the state of affairs in all things political. I don't watch as much political news (more discerning not less interested). I just cannot believe that there are so many politicos so willing to show their intellectual short comings to a national audience. I also am having a lot of trouble sympathizing with red states who are being blasted with natural disasters. How can two tornadoes large than any in history within two weeks not be a symptom of climate change? Really?
