Will “The Cycle” be “The Cosby Show” for political buffs?

I get all warm and fuzzy anticipating the joy such a show will bring in the afternoons. I can’t wait and wish them well!  (I hope they don’t  sit on a couch  pontificating)

Holder and Charlie Rangel

Within the past few years, I am absolutely positive in  declaring  my most disturbing moments in politics were when members of the House, both Democrats and Republicans, censured Congressman  Rangel for ethics violations.

House censures Rep. Charles Rangel in 333-79 vote
By Paul Kane and David A. Fahrenthold
Excerpt:
Despite a concerted effort by supporters to downgrade Rangel's punishment to a reprimand, the House voted 333 to 79 for censure.

And
With 170 Democrats joining all but two Republicans, the chamber approved the condemnation for 11 rules infractions that included 17 years of unpaid taxes on property in the Dominican Republic, more than $500,000 in undisclosed financial assets and inappropriately raising millions of dollars for a New York City college from corporations with business before the Ways and Means Committee.

I am bracing myself for a similar voting pattern when the full House votes to hold *Sec. Eric Holder in Contempt Of Congress. In cases like this, Democrats, to their detriment,  pride themselves for not being a monolith. I am mindful of The Cheese in the popular nursery rhyme “The farmer in the dell” when at the end of the day,  a Black man in America still stands alone and abandoned  many times by members of his own party. Sad. (Whisper: I won't mention the votes on the laws for cocaine and marijuana violations or that little thingy called Three Strikes and you're out)

Fighting for the dignity of my Ancestors,
God bless Bill Gates, WPFW, C-SPAN and the spirits of the unborn for the help,

Mitt Romney (finally) realizes he has no clothes

There comes a time when people like parents and school teachers realize the person with whom they are dealing  has lost interest. In my opinion and from my experiences, Presidential aspirant Mitt Romney displayed those qualities last Sunday on “Meet the press” hosted by Bob Scheiffer. I think it was a watershed moment for Mr. Romney.

I confess the feelings you get from answers to your questions that the person is no longer interested is a nebulous one  but just like pornography, ‘You know it when you see it’. At some point, I had the same feelings about Presidential hopeful John McCain that I continue to believe  to be true.

People like Mr. Romney and John McCain are not unlike ordinary people; that is what they are. There is a time during their campaigning when they come to realize that winning the office of the President of a country is way beyond their grasp, their temperament and intellect. There is an event or series of events that renders a cold, hard slap to  their face telling  them to “Wake Up! This is not the piece of cake you thought it was going to be. This is serious business. It’s time to face reality and re-view the situation you’ve gotten yourself into!" Enough said.

As always,

 P.S. When the President was interrupted in the Rose Garden the other day, I was surprised a secret service agent or two did not jump at his side. How did they know the heckler was not a diversion?
