Just plain mouthing off.

I haven't been "mouthing off" since before Christmas. So, here I am! I am really worried about the new House of Reps. They keep threatening - and seeing how things always went the way of the Conservatives, even before they were the majority, what can happen now!!! To see John Bohner (did I spell it right? Well, who cares!) cry and believe me, when they swear him in, he will cry! My husband cried watching an old, old (naturally it's old!) Shirley Temple movie last week! What can I say?? Anyhow, they keep talking about cutting social security and medicare - sure, cut from the seniors! Cut from the poor and the schools! As long as the top l% of this country get their tax cuts!!!! The big corps like Exxon, G.M., B of A, etc. are asking if they have to pay taxes to get their money from the Caymans or Bermuda, or wherever they stashed it seeing that they made that money in the Caymans or Bermuda (wink, wink) Can you believe them????? This is for real. They do not want to pay taxes on that money that they sent out of the country and never paid taxes on it before, so why should they pay taxes when they bring it back into the country? Something's screwy here.
By the way, I really enjoyed Cenk who took over for Ed Schultz on The Ed Show on MSNBC. He is from
The Young Turks and he is really good. I enjoyed the show emensely. Sam Seder was good subbing  for Olbermann and he has a good sense of humor. Missed Rachel very much. I hate when they re-hash the whole year. Norah O'Donnell is very good and so is Contessa Brewer. Oh yes, also missed Lawrence O'Donnell, also.  Hopefully they will all be back on Monday. I really don't sit the whole day and nite and watch MSNBC altho I could! I tape most of it except Olbermann & Maddow. Those I watch live. Anyhow, I will miss Nancy sitting next to VP Biden and having Bohner there will only make Biden look paler! They are really out to get Obama and I know many people are upset w/him but I am not. I do not want to see a President Palen (oh, perish the thought!!!gag!gag!gag!) or even a Huckleberry! (I know that's not his name, it is what I call him!) Don't know much about Pawlenty but I don't know how we can handle a Rep Congress, Rep Senate & Rep Prez! Too much for my brain to think about. I may have mentioned this before but in 2012, 21 Dem Sen will be fighting for their jobs and only 10 Rep Sens. Chances are that we will lose some Dem. Sens and lose the Senate. I got a beautiful e-mail from Barbara Boxer and I am so thrilled that she was re-elected! I couldn't handle Farina!!!!! Where was our governator when we had all these floods here? Shouldn't he have been available or not? Well, that's about it. Happy New Year to anyone who bothers to read this.
