My Apologies for the Paucity of Posts
I've been off with the family on our summer vacation in Maine. We were in Kennebunkport but we got out before Bush and Putin arrived. I'll try to do better over the rest of the summer.
A few items in the meantime.
First, if you haven't seen it yet, the Washington Post series on Vice President Cheney's power grab is definitely worth a read. Anyone who reads this blog regularly will not be surprised by the revelations but it confirms Cheney's role in determining the course of every decision made the Administration since 2001.
Next, what is wrong with these guys and animals? First it was Bill Frist, who we learned used to adopt cats from the pound when he was in medical school only to then practice dissection once he got them home.
Now it's Mitt Romney's turn, as he apparently went Chevy Chase to Aunt Edna on the family pet, a la National Lampoon's Vacation (and I recall that Clark Griswold didn't have a real good record with Aunt Edna's dog either).
Romney strapped the family dog to the roof of their car for family trips. Nice. According to Romney, his position (this week at least) is that the dog "likes fresh air."
And even more incredibly, he apparently is citing the time that he pulled the car over because his kids noticed a running brown liquid rolling down the side of the car for where the dog was situated as an example in his leadership and crisis management. Shit happens, huh? Animal cruelty happens too.
Unbelievable.
