Great links. Thanks.
I personally like the bonobo society. FEMALES rule!!!! yea!!!! Oh well nice try, I know. But you know the old saying is, if females ruled there would not be any wars. So it goes…I suppose. Thanks boo for the good diary…and shame on allen..however I know he is a busted republican, he is a rampant ape with grandiose ideas he is the most important..ha ha…wink wink.
I wonder about Bush reading the stranger. I don’t think he’d have the time or inclination to want to read so complex a book, which is quite philosophical, and requires more than a passing knowledge of Sartre’ if you want to understand the story completely..
However, I wonder if the staffers were trying to tell us in a sort of code, that Bush is like Mersault.
And that gives me the creeps.
I might be inclined to think, like you, on the latter. Could it be that everyone is getting tired of this nonessential prez we all have to tolerate for the next 2 1/2 years. I have heard how bush barks at the staff, when he gets into trouble or does not get his way on things. Maybe he is out of his meds and should be given more time to get back on his maintenance dosage for while..this could be the time he is reading..ha ha…. wink wink…
I do not think bush could identify with anyone else, except his alter-ego, for that matter.
So are Dean and Schumer getting along peachy? I keep hearing about the Dean-Rahm spat, and that they don’t talk to each other, but never anything about Schumer.
And yes, I understand that the articles of impeachment start in the House and that the Dems may arguably have a better chance to take the House over, but nevertheless, the DSCC must also want some of that sweet sweet DNC moolah too and Schumer’s gotta want a piece of that action.
Unbelievable:
