    <summary>MoveOn made a dumb ad, that played to their base. Rush Limbaugh made a clumsy elocution, which when taken out of context, looks dumb. Okay. This is a note from the Heartland to BOTH parties. COULD WE PASS A FEW FARGING APPROPRIATION BILLS, PLEASE? Ya wanna make a statement supportive of the troops? PASS THE DAMN VA FUNDING BILL. How &apos;bout that? Not to mention the rest of &apos;em. Good golly gee, people. And ya wonder why the nation thinks you&apos;re a collection of buffoons? Just watch C-Span. The bills are what&apos;s important, ladies and gents. Not the posturing that...</summary>

<p><em><strong>COULD WE PASS A FEW FARGING APPROPRIATION BILLS, PLEASE?</strong> </em>  </p>

<p>Ya wanna make a statement supportive of the troops?</p>

<p><em><strong>PASS THE DAMN VA FUNDING BILL.</strong> </em>  How 'bout that?  Not to mention the rest of 'em.  Good golly gee, people.  And ya wonder why the nation thinks you're a collection of buffoons?  Just watch C-Span.</p>

<p>The bills are what's important, ladies and gents.  Not the posturing that mostly only interests those who already agree with you.  ARGGHHH!!!</p>]]>

Not really. The messengers have self-identified with the message in this instance, ergo, a slap at the messenger is a slap at the message is a slap at the messenger.

Think of it as a political Moebius strip...]]>

        Hmmm.  I did kinda break my own rulez, didn&apos;t I?

Sigh.  Anger, it&apos;s such an ugly thing.

        Well, except for not passing any salient bills, sometimes non-working buffoonery is good...for the American people that is.  At least they can&apos;t make it worse than it is.

But, money would be good for these two items.  They can wrestle over their little squealing pork projects some other time.

and people wonder why I absolutely detest the possibility of government directed health care.

        Well smote, sir.  If it makes you feel any better (and I&apos;m almost positive it won&apos;t), we&apos;re just as bad up here north of you folks.  It&apos;s like these pols live in a freakin&apos; bubble, where everything&apos;s about the sizzle and nobody cares about the steak.

Frustrating.

        I&apos;ve barely got time to sleep let alone blog and comment, but you sum up my feelings in 1.

Next they&apos;ll be passing a Brittney bill.
