30. I have found myself yelling at least five times in the past day
to Patient Husband, "These people care NOTHING for this country! They only care about their power."

Now the difference between that and what I used to think is that I used to think that holding onto power merely INFORMED everything they do and that they are as patriotic in their own way as the rest of us.

I no longer feel that way.

If they cared one whit about this country, they would not make it impossible to govern.

Two days in a row, I have awakened to C-Span showing the House of Representatives with Republicans saying the most extreme and outrageous things Really over the top stuff.

Now it's been a long time since I've liked any Republicans, but last night when I saw tape of DeLay, Hastert and Blunt approaching a mike to Yap about Sandy Berger, followed by tape of Santorum, Cornyn and some other senator, I thought it was the sorriest sextet of human beings I'd ever seen on one television screen.

I pray to God that more of our fellow citizens start to see it that way, too.

These people are bringing down our country.
