Bloomberg not a Republican! What can you trust?

The concrete around which a lot of things I believed were set in crumbled this week.

Michael Bloomberg left the Republican party. The once ultra liberal Democrat turned Republican for the sole purpose of running for Mayor of NY City, has decided that’s not really a Republican. Who knew? So now that dreams of living in a big White House have entered Bloomberg’s mind, NY City’s elected nanny has decided he’s neither an R nor a D. Well that clears it all up. If the Republicans can’t hold a conservative like Bloomberg, I guess all hope’s lost.

Then I’m shocked, SHOCKED to learn that the MSM in this country leans Democrat by a 9-1 margin. Again, who knew? These are the supposedly non-partisan down the middle folks that pick the stories that form the opinions of how the cattle class in America thinks. How could the straight shooters at the NY Times, CNN, ACB, CBS and NBC lean so heavily in one direction? Is anyone in congress looking at some sort of fairness doctrine for the NY Times and the nightly news crowd?

Next, I find out that only about 3% of Americans favor the Comprehensive Amnesty Bill now before the senate. 3%!! Yet, part time talk radio basher and full time weasel Trent - doesn’t–think-a-Lott says they will get the 60 votes necessary to move this abomination out of the senate. How can that be? Who do these people represent anyway? Aren’t they supposed to be making law on behalf of the people? 3% for; 97% against or too stupid to give a damn; but Trent doesn’t-think-a-Lott brags about moving the bill along. What the…?

Then the really hurtful news that the same congress we elected mere months ago has a favorable rating of just 14%. How can that be? No wait. Just read the previous paragraph. That 14% makes sense now.

NOTE: Lex is on the vacation of a lifetime for the next 12 days. Yeah, I know. 12 days whew. As the great Johnny Horton once sang, “North to Alaska, we’re going north the rush is on.” We’ll be traveling the inter-coastal and then going inland. The ship has an “internet café” where I may make post, but given it’s on ship and the rates probably start at $87 a minute, maybe not.

The most important thing is to keep the pressure on the weasels in congress on this amnesty bill. I’m adjusting the two paragraphs above this note to 2nd person and blasting it around to Trent doesn’t-think-a-Lott, Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Grahamnesty et al. We know they have not read this 800 page amnesty, but we don’t know if that’s because they are lazy or illiterate. If they are illiterate, the e-mails will do little good. We may have to start calling their offices.
See ya from the boat or back here on the 7th of July.
