+ Why is it that people who would castigate, slander and lynch a person
+who cheats at golf, are so eager to preach 'compromise' with those who
+want to cheat at 'the Constitution'?
elementary, Mr. Watson: politicians _must_ pass a law, even a bad
law (so they can go home and say they were doing their job). in
America they call it "log rolling".
with few exceptions, todays politicians are a collection of morally
derelict, intellectually bankrupt, ego-aggrandizing inanities.
power corrupts so vicariously their threadbare cranial vacuities that
they succomb to the ultimate aphrodesiac: governance; any governance
will do since the rules do not apply to them. alone they thunder in
paranoid schizophrenia.
when the day comes, the tumbrils shall roll to the fantasy of
Saint-Saens Organ Symphony (#3) --do not ask for whom the bell
tolls, it tolls for thee. (EH) we are closing the 3rd of 5 movements
and none shall have the loyal lady in Stendahl's 'The Red and the
Black' to caress their severed heads.
