I am screwed. I have a 1000 meeting at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, have not thought of anything witty or clever to say in a story this morning. There is no time to do so as a consequence of the disbelief at the dysfunction of this great nation I read about in the morning traffic.
Most bizarre issue? Sequestration. It was no one’s idea except everyone’s. You are welcome to all the schadenfreude you wish. We here in Washington have earned it.
Most irritating man in Washington? No, not the elected clowns. It is that patronizing congenital dissembler and Press Secretary Jay Carney. He makes me want to puke.
Most astonishing self defense recommendation? Smokin’ Joe Biden on the value of the double barrel shotgun for home defense, though of course he recommends it as a sonic warning device for helpless women.
Second most astonishing? The Colorado legislator who opposes Second Amendment rights and recommends female students explain to rapists that they are either menstruating or about to throw up as a deterrent.
You cannot make this stuff up. This is no longer a functioning society. I wonder what they will do to us next?
