DRILL HEER -- DRILL NOW! Just a Minute for 08-06-08

Howdy once again… All downhill from here to the weekend they say.  Of course you never know what’s waiting next week.

 

            Congress does. They’re going to be home explaining how hard they work, and how the voters don’t understand how things work in Washington… I don’t think even the people who are there know how things work in Washington. It’s kind of a “Look Ma! No hands.” When kids had enough momentum to steer without touching the handlebars.  That’s sort how it feels at home.

 

            The war of words – or streams of hot air -- heated up last week. McCain put out an ad that compared Barak to Misses Spears and Hilton… which made Mrs. Hilton angry. The Hilton’s had contributed $4600…the maximum to Senator John’s campaign… to be treated like this?  Strange things happen in politics… we’ll see more before the frost is off the punkin’.

 

            Which makes me long for some cooler weather. I think I mis-wrote about a week ago when I said we were nearing the end of Dog Days… I thought it was this past Monday… but … turns out it’s NEXT Monday. … So… too hot to read straight. Well… the race will heat up but the weather will cool down. I remember working on a campaign in Michigan many years ago… and it snowed on our efforts in the Upper Peninsula before we got through.

 

            Speaker Pelosi has had a tough time getting out of town. People are wondering when she’s bringing out her own translation of the Bible she quotes. She’s used the same quote over and over and no one seems to be able to locate it.  Maybe it’s like we used to say in the Goldwater campaign back in 1964… “Don’t write what he says – write what he means.” I’ll bet a LOT of politicos would love to have that gear to switch into especially when they’re on the stump.

 

            Right now, I’d rather watch baseball!

 

            Cordially, IN HIM
