As the party of the hissy fit, Republicans are playing with fire.

1. good read

one quote: John McCain had a positive campaign slogan in 2008 — “Country First.” This week, he vowed “no cooperation for the rest of the year.” This is an adolescent living in the shell of a former statesman.

i hope this approach boomerangs on the republicans so hard they become nonviable. they've done enough damage.

2. Friend of mine called today. He delivers supplies for oil rigs, so

on the road he fills his time with Glen Beck, because Rush Limbaugh is worthless (his take).

And when he talks about how Repubs are going to gain 30 seats in the fall he is nearly giddy ;)

I sincerely hope he is not driving on election night. If there is any good news about jobs or
the economy, (not bloody likely, of course) he might be so mad he would run his truck into a tree.

3. I don't think I've read a better summary ...

"Many people are afraid of the dark, the saying goes. But the real tragedy is those who are afraid of the light."

Thanks for the link.
