TidBits #25
The letter I got today was basically a “Thank you note.” You would have thought I sent them five hundred dollars instead of the twenty five I did send them. Since reading Dkos and getting used to sending money to radio stations and political campaigns, I had no idea such a small contribution could be so much appreciated. This was a local radio station.
My biggest surprise was the absence of a return envelope and a donation card asking for another contribution. I am very impressed and thank them for their courtesy of simply acknowledging my donation. Class!
=====================================
Chris Matthew is beginning to irritate me. He appears to have become a trouble maker with Obama/McCain campaign issues. His analyses are off-kilter and, in my opinion, give the impression of being of the tasteless and slimy varieties. I hope it is just a phase one of us is going through.
=====================================
It’s the comparison, stupid! It’s basic communication skills, dummy! If you want to drive a point home, make a comparison. If Sen. Obama is said to be “shifting to center” and if you knew what you are talking about, you would fully explain what the “left” side of the issue is.
For example, “Sen. Obama has shifted to the center of the issues and as you know, and if you did not know, the leftist feel the issues should resolve thus and so and the right feel the issues should be solved thus and so. So you see folks, he has taken a centrist position which is thus and so.”
But then how many of those people themselves know what a leftist, centrist or right view of an issue. More pink slips in mail boxes next payday? They say politics is not for the faint of heart and I would posit the profession of reporting it is not for the wannabe. Sen. Obama had to make two speeches yesterday due to the fact some of the reporters were political reporter wannabes. Inapt, I say. Hard to understand political language.
=====================================
Michelle Willis should know when to use a period. In my opinion, always manages to kick over the bucket of milk. She should write her thoughts and see what I mean. Most of the time I take the advantage of yawning before she starts to give her opinion about something. I take that to be more polite. Andrea Mitchell’s interview today with Sen. Egelburger was a porcelain figurine. Glad Pat Buchanan is a distant memory and {{Rachel Maddow}} is slowly but surely becoming front and center. Love her!
=====================================
Exits Al Wynn, enter Danna Edwards (Dist. 4 MD)
Endorsed by Steny Hoyer, “She’s going to do very well”. (The Gazette June 26) She is backed by some group from California and my barber says she has yet to visit his barber shop to introduce herself to the other guys and the patrons. =====================================
“Prince George’s officials rally against slots” (The Gazette June 26) speaks of one of the rationales for getting slots. “…5.5 of the revenues will go to local governments, about 50 percent to education, 33 percent to license the machines and 7 percent directly to the horse racing industry”.
In Washington, D.C. when they bought in the lottery, most of us were disappointed when we did not get the promise to have some of the revenues going to education. We learned, many years later, money can not go into the education funds of a city that easily. If seems, if memory serves me correctly, that the educational budget, with a lot of money coming from the government, could not be supplemented. We felt screwed. We were screwed. Somebody knew this before we voted for the lottery to be set up in Washington, D.C. and some reporters than as now are lazy dumb ass shit heads and I am still pissed off about my two books!
=================================================================
It is appearing Ms.Clinton has some serious financial problems. More than meets the eye and that was publicly exposed.
Fighting for the dignity of my Ancestors,
God bless Bill Gate, WPFW, C-Span and the spirits of the unborn for the help,
