Where are all the crazed lay Democrats
Where are all the crazed lay Democrats who were led to hysteria over how Bush strong armed his political opposition?
Did you see this strong armed tactic by the President's right hand man?
I can't be entertained by the politicians anymore, I expect nothing but the worst from them.
The lay people, now they are bad too, but I can laugh aloud at them.

The light bulb is dim I realized.
The light bulb is dim I realized. Literally, figuratively, and metaphorically.
Early last summer I went to the local hardware store and came across those new compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFL). The marketing was such that it moved me to purchase a sizable quantity and replace some of the incandescent bulbs that were in high use in my house.
It wasn't that hard of a sell, I've always considered myself an early adopter, that guy that buys in early on new consumer tech products. I was being increasingly exposed to the inefficiencies of the old light bulb -- mostly heat, little light for all the energy one consumes -- in print and t.v., and like the perfect mark, I bought into it all. The savings were going to be great!
That is until Day Light Savings Time came to an end and I realized I couldn't see as well with these fancy things. And did you know that if one should break, you need to call the local Haz-Mat Team?
Is it only coincidence that advertising for these new bulbs seems to disappear during winter when the deficiencies of the light is inescapable?
Metaphorically speaking, I hope the filters in your life are allowing the dimming of the whole Al Gore/Environmental/Global Warming bulb to be seen in your home.
I'll talk to you later, I just bought a pack of the old Edison bulbs to replace the replacements. I just may break one on purpose, to see that explosion, while I still can.

Olympic Thoughts
The 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics are over and I have to admit I did enjoy watching them. It was a pleasant diversion and there were some very good story lines that came from these games. It was nice to see the different sports. I can not remember the last time sat down and actually watched the Olympics, winter or summer. I am not sure why, but I watched as much as I could this year. So, will I watch the 2012 Summer Games in London? Time will tell.
7 Year vs 7 Month Bulb
Back in July, one of the headlight bulbs in my 2003 Vibe burned out. It was the original bulb, and lasted almost 7 years. I decided to replace both bulbs at the same time, and I upgraded to a Sylvania XtraVision bulb. The bulb is supposed to be brighter than their standard bulb, but there is a trade off. The extra brightness means a shorter life span for the bulb. Well, one of the new bulbs burned out today, so it only lasted 7 months. I was extremely disappointed. I still had the working bulb that I removed in July, so I just used it to replace the bad bulb.

A True Butlerite of 78 Years ~
"Why We Fight" is a title of an episode
"Why We Fight" is a title of an episode of HBO's Band of Brothers. Its a particular moving episode, on the discovery of a concentration camp in Germany, by the Americans, in the waning days of WWII.
My mind wondered to that series when I was asked recently if I've been on an Olympic hiatus from battling the dastardly villains of the liberal left.
The easy answer would be yes. I've been lax because I've been maxed out on Winter Olympics. I can't get enough of the Hockey and Curling Tournaments!
The harder answer is that, in this era of full-bore disgruntled, enraged, and engaged partisans, I'm not entirely.
Even more so, I have trouble finding inspiration from the genre to write about.
True inspiration, not the self-serving, media driven, cult of personality that is passing for inspiration now a days.
In fact, I'm equal parts indifferent and outraged, but they short each other out.
This affords me a sober response to the rhetoric.
I can't trust either side to get the job done, and it needs done like yesterday, if not yesteryear.
I'm a conservative and I vote, its not apathy, its that the GOP can not incite me where they'd rather I'd be incited, all the while I'm rather excited to the point of pulling that voting lever real hard next time around.
I can't follow anything real close anymore not just because both sides get nothing done, but also because all the while they're doing nothing, its claimed the other side is the obstacle and is distorting the issue.
The reality is that when the Republicans were clearly in power, they got nothing done and in 2010 the Democrats can't get anything done. I'm going back decades with some of these issues that neither side has made positive nor substantive change to.
I'm cynical about the whole establishment.
Truth they say is out there, but I can't trust anyone really has a grasp of it to tell me, and inspire me with it.
