David Vitter’s tele-town hall just robocalled me, and of course, I’m sticking around to listen to the bitter end. What’s really hilarious is that every second or third question, the person also tosses in a slam against Mary Landrieu, commenting on her unresponsiveness especially with regard to the health care bill. If she were up for re-election this year, she’d be toast.

We could do worse. And have, for that matter.
I’d gladly swap these candidates for quite a few current Congressmen. And that includes more than a few Republicans. A homeless gutter punk, tarot card reader – even drug addicts would probably spend more responsibly than the current crop of legislators.

Quote of the day…
“What do I really think about Hawking’s theory? I guess the obvious answer is that you can’t talk about Hawking’s latest work without touching on Richard Feynman’s quantic experiment, which famously involved a double-slit barrier that particles were projected at. You have to accept as Jose Rodrigues dos Santos says, the Hawking explanation that “it was inevitable that a universe fine-tuned for life would emerge – it’s just a statistical accident.” (Admit it, you never saw that paragraph coming. It was like a tightly coiled puma, waiting to pounce.)”
Time to visit D.C. again?
I haven’t been to Washington D.C. in some time (even when we lived in the ‘burbs we seldom went to town to do touristy things, something I now regret deeply) but it sounds like the city’s improved a lot since the 90s. Maybe New Orleans can get Fenty after D.C. is done with him. 
I realize it’s not Shatnerday, but…
an interesting read, nevertheless.
