AS JUDGES KNOW -- EVERYONE DOESN'T SHARE OPINIONS - for Just a Minute Radio on Thursday 111110

Just got an e-mail from a friend – an EMT nursing assistant or something close to that – who has traveled up to Alaska and is experiencing temps in the 20’s … that’s -20 … and they don’t even bother with wind-chills up there.  He’s planning on having the rest of his family join him in a month or so… and hopes within a year to clear enough $$$ to pay off his mortgage.  Now that’s dedication!

 

So… we are basking in our temperate autumnal exhibition of gold and yellow leaves fluttering to the ground… and we’re going to have an abundant crop of that this year. Even the squirrels seem to be rejoicing. BTW how do you like their exhibition of memory when digging up acorns buried since this time last year?  I think they just keep on diggin’ till they find something… they couldn’t have that good of a memory in such a small brain package – could they?

 

Well… it seems some folks get along with small brain packages… mine turns out to be 7 and ½ to 7 and ¾ which is about as big as a standard hatter makes ‘em. I remember how silly I looked in my Dad’s hat of that size… it wasn’t that it came down over my ears… it didn’t… I just still looked top heavy because I was so skinny… I have solved that problem. But I still look…. Well  I think I’ll leave that up to my wife’s pronouncement… she’s better at those things.

 

What are we going to do about Mr. Cain and his “followers” … or the ones who *say* they’re his followers… or would like to be… or … or… well…I’ll drop it there.  It’s a tough deal he’s getting (I think…) and my wife agrees.  Of course with my excellent 20-20 thought processes… My advice from the beginning was don’t go there… there’s no end to that road.  And we have had Christian organization clients who have had problems… these are organizations rather than individuals… and that’s a bit of a handful… but not as much as having 20 people on your staff all with a differing opinion on what you ought to do.  Like a horse between 30 bales of hay..

 

Well…It’s part of the scenery when you get into politics… specially BIG TIME politics… and wind blows….  The Money flows… and the hot air blows…

 and the mud balls throws… (well it sort of rhymes)…I’m just glad it’s not *my* full time job. 

 

We’ll see how it all comes out… And LOOK UP… HE is in charge. All of the stars and even the aircraft carrier astroids that passed between the moon and us… we’re safe… and so are they… because HE IS in control.

 

And I am hitting the hay.  God bless you all … keep lookin’ up!  The view is better!

 

Cordially, IN HIM

 “JUST A MINUTE”

AS JUDGES KNOW – EVERYONE DOESN’T SHARE OPINIONS

Just a Minute: High Judges are, or should be, of the opinion that everyone isn’t going   to share their opinion – caught my attention yesterday when Judge Laurence H. Silberman’s opinion in upholding the Obama health-care plan, along with his colleague, Judge Harry Edwards, runs contrary to what most conservative jurists seem to think. The decision by two judges on a three judge panel will likely send the case on to the Supreme Court most

          I’m not a lawyer – even a jailhouse one – but this is consistent with the record I’ve noticed about Judge Silberman since I was on the Senate staff in the 1960’s. Our legal assistant in the office where I worked – that of Sen. Paul Fannin of Arizona, was quite disgusted with the lack of support Mr. Silberman – who was not a judge at the time – gave to conservative positions. Judge Silberman called his own decision this time a “sparing” one as reported in the Wall St. Journal

          The Journal itself says the “disappointing opinion” shows you can’t count on Republican judges to settle America’s health care problems. <> I’m Jack Buttram.  (END)
