Cramming

After kicking around yellow dogs yesterday, today has been slow.

We changed out our telephone, cable and Internet providers this morning, so have been playing a bit with that.

Its Uverse, and so far, so good.

The summer doldrums are here, and Congress is rushing to get a bunch of bad legislation through while most people are thinking about vacation, or wishing they had the money to go.

From what I read, a lot of Democratic Congressmen were taken aback by their constituents' reactions to the "cap and trade" bill. I cannot understand why.

One would think that anybody with any sense would have realized that if you pass a huge tax without reading a word of the bill, most folks might get a little upset.

Watch them try to do the same thing with socialized medicine. I saw where Rahm, Obama's man, has threated to cram the socialized medicine down our throats whether we like it or not.

Hope and change.

Congress and medicine

Starting the blogging day wondering why, if socialized medicine is so good for us, Congress is exempting itself from the rules.

Of course, Congress is very good at exempting itself from onerous rules it passes for those of us in the hinterland.

We need to throw all the bums out and start over.
