Even at this late date there are people who call in to C-SPAN just falling over themselves to heap praise upon George W. Bush. He has not lied to us, he has protected us. He is a good man, they say, and even more call him a good Christian man. Invariably these people are out of touch with facts and current events and could care less. What they do know they get from FOX News and Limbaugh or one of his many clones and then they mix that all up.
Often those with the strongest feelings and the fewest facts tend to be the people who speak with a Southern accent. After a while it just gets to me; there will be no convincing such people. They are not open to facts, debate or persuasion. Bush is their beleaguered hero and thats that.
I would say to the Democratic political strategists...yeah go ahead and write off the South.

Slush pile me and W
You are reading--if indeed you are human and are really reading this blog entry- a slush pile blog. Slush pile is the term publishing houses use to describe unpublished and mostly unpublishable manuscripts. The slush pile is the land fill of literature.
OK! I can deal with that, I'm a big boy.
The fact is that I am not disciplined enough in my writing. Which is to say I do not write every day. Real authors do exactly that. They also do an additional thing...they revise. They may feel, when writing, that the spirit is upon them and every word is worth its weight in gold but invariably it is not so. The gold, in fact, comes from considered and careful editing.
Personally, I think that Karl Rove is itching to go to before a Congressional committee and show everyone just how brilliant he is. I do not think he will make any indictable mistakes if he should appear before either Chairman Conyers or Senator Leahy. Moreover, I think Karl needs this sort of appearance and has hungered for it secretly since coming to Washington. After all, what would you want were you 50 times smarter than the man who is President and who out of the public eye dismissively calls you "turdblossom"? One thing really smart people hate it is to be mocked by a dumbass- read W. As much as Karl Rove wants a Republican majority for the future, what he wants more is recognition. Karl has had to take a lot of shit for W and that gets old, especially since W by now is already history. If Karl is going to have a time it is now.
