Looks like the Gremlins are mounting a deserved attack on the opposition.
We’ve been getting lousy news breaks from time to time with a 90% unfriendly MSM press corps. [They don’t look for anything that will help us – au contrar’ mon frer’….] They seem to *always* be on the side of trying to magnify any slips or probs on our side. It’s frustrating. Takes me back to the “Goldwater” days when that was also the ‘soup’ we were generally in.
However – I’ve grown up a little since then – and it’s more tolerable and I’ve seen a lot more of the “justice” the Lord metes out (I’m not sure that’s the word I’m looking for … but it’ll have to do for now, I can’t recall a more apt one.—For the most part things do even out in the end although it doesn’t look like it at the time. (L) – but as I said in the DC Mixing bowl it does end up with “What goes around, comes around!” Often the justice you want to see imposed on the other side gets doled out as the Lord sees fit… so I’ve gotten a little less sensitive to thinking “We’re always getting the short end of the stick.”
Sometime we get the BIGGER end of the stick and fewer blows accomplish more. (If you follow my thinking. – Which isn’t the easiest thing to do.)
In the G’water days when I worked first for the G’Water Committee and later for the RNC… I tended to sweat *both* the big and the little things politically. Now I ignore the ankle biters… and commit the BIG guys to the Lord’s justice… and things work out more smoothly… the difference is sometimes I forget.
But I see guys on the other side who have similar problems – they’re human too, just with more errors that are not counted than I think *ought* to be. But one comforting thought ought to help us all…”There ain’t gonna be no need fer no politics in Heaven.” Now that was a quote I pulled right out of Mr. Billy Bob’s notebook – he’s good to have around because I can more readily see the kinds of mistakes I’m about to make before I make them (usually) – but not always. We’re not to Heaven *yet*.
I think that’s about enough ramblin’ for this week. See you next week if you’re willin’ (Billy-bob again!)

“JUST A MINUTE”
THE PRESIDENT OPENS HIS PATENT OFFICE
Just a Minute: Has the President never heard of the Patent Office. His argument is the self-made man is an illusion… He told the folks in the ‘Old Dominion’ (Quote) “If you were successful, somebody along the way gave you some help.” Thus he informs the ghosts of Henry Ford, the Wright Brothers and Alexander Graham Bell they are frauds for acting as if they developed anything new themselves. Mr. “O” says it was government pure and simple that which brought forth those inventions! How dare they claim an inventor’s crown!
Nothing The President has ever said resonates more loudly than Mr. Obama’s Roanoke Firehouse Speech. He’s saturated the Internet with images that Thomas Edison, Steve Jobs and others ought to share stage and spotlight with government gods and goddesses who are up until now unsung heroes of the Capitol.
That’s certainly an unexpected leaf from a heroic paean! -- I don’t recall ever hearing it expressed with such overwrought emotion. I’m hoping it goes down in history as the point at which Mr. Obama put his foot in his mouth and walked off the political stage. What a welcome sight. <> I’m Jack Buttram. (END)
