EXCITING TIME

Back from two weeks in The North.
Back to the real world.
Or is the real world Up North?

We have asked that question before in these pages.

Anyway, we are back to whatever world this is and a lot is going on.

Postings have been less than usual. That is what happens when one is with friends and lots of friendly things are going on.

Thankfully, we have a few friends ‘downstate’ too, but even so, posting is easier when home at The Study.

Tonight b.o. presses the argument again for the program it is believed precious few in the Congress have thought through.

As is our custom, we will probably skip the actual performance, opting instead for reading the text and watching immediate and subsequent analysis by knowledgeable folks on both ‘sides of the aisle’.

Even some of the non-knowledgeable folks are ok to scan by – for a moment anyway.

We never watch b.o. in action if we can help it, as we have said before.

He has proven to us that he speaks out of both sides of his mouth excessively, even for a politician, even for a Chicago democratic politician.

And we are persuaded that that is quite an accomplishment, that to do so takes an inveterate liar.

And he is an accomplished one indeed.

At any rate, we will read and watch even more closely the reaction(s).

These are exciting times in the life of our Republic.

How can anyone be bored with such goings on?

Depressed sometimes?

Yes.

Bored??

No!

As Dr. Johnson said two centuries or so ago, “When one is tired of London, one is tired of life.”

When one is tired of the evolution of the United States of America, one is indeed tired of life.
