As the talking heads pontificate,

there are a couple of people that I actually listen to, and both are very apolitical. Art Cashin, Head of Floor Operations at the NYSE, and Warren Buffet, genius investor from Omaha. They both say the same thing. The (idiot, yup they imply that) Repubs are gonna take this shutdown to the VERY end, wrecking a bunch of 401K's and portfolios, before capitulating at the last minute, so Boehner can save face with his Tea Party henchmen. He wants to keep his job, even though he's TERRIBLE at it. AND, even though the shutdown would end today, if he gave it a simple up/down vote in the House, he's not gonna do it. What an asshole, as he plays politics with people's lives. BUT, the good news is that it's gonna come back and bite 'em in the ass, cuz the American people aren't as ignorant as the FOXNews sheep. Not even close. Yahoo, Dems are gonna have all 3 of the legislative branches. There IS hope for us. Can you say President Clinton, again?

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...
