. . . . about what, I'm not exactly sure.
Obama opened with "My fellow Americans..." Well there's the first lie out of the way. Heh.
He sounds rushed, like he wants this to be over quickly. NOW, I have empathy.
Through all this rhetoric, all I can remember is Joe Biden saying Obama ("this guy" he called him) has steel in his spine. If so, right now I think it's Putin's knife.
And now it's over. I HAVE NO CLUE what he just said. And I'm S.M.ARE.T.

The Last 24 Notes....
Tom Day is the man.
I salute him for standing up to the Pentagon and others, and giving our deceased veterans the sendoff they so rightfully earned.
Like me, the man can't stand empty rhetoric.

Time & Change
Irony? Fate?
In another life, in a parallel universe, I believe I am supposed to be attending a birthday party tomorrow. A 1st bday party for a little girl I've never even met.
At least, it could have been. Was supposed to be?
Regrets. I have many. I thought I had finally forgiven myself for the biggest mistake I've ever made in my life. But it's all been dredged up again, and I am now confused where I thought I finally had clarity . . .
Though it appears there is nothing left for me here, one day I hope to meet that little girl.

Sandra Says We're Stoopid
. . . and she's right!
Former U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Conner is lamenting the alarming degree of public ignorance. I couldn't agree more.
I have often said, "the more you know, the less influence you have." Why? Because my fellow Americans, on average, are less and less able to have a general conversation about most subjects. What often happens is a parroting of sound bytes picked up from Twitter, or someone's Facebook post, or some TV comedy host like Jay Leno or John Stewart. Even Stewart has urged viewers to read newspapers and watch real tv news broadcasts, and NOT to think his comedy show is real news.
I have more and more friends who roll their eyes and rubber stamp anything the current White House administration does, without regard to the implications.
More on this when I have time.
Sandy, you said it all.

Control Freak
On Ariel Castro . . .
Suicide is sad and awful no matter who does it. That being said, I found it hard to give a shit that he hung himself in his jail cell, except that he he robbed his victims of justice they deserved. This is his way to control them. He ruined and robbed those three girls of freedom for a decade, now they can't do the same to him.
Should have been on strict suicide watch.
