It's all about local politics

OK - I'm just going to say it. The new Chinese Immersion School in Verona Wisconsin is called . . . . STONER PRAIRIE Elementary School? Come on man? What were they thinking. Stoner Prairie? I can see them sitting around thinking of a good name for a new school and the best they could come up with was Stoner Prairie? sigh! Let's all vote, pass the bong, raise your hands if you like Stoner Prairie!!
--------------------------------

OK OK - perhaps I failed to mention that the Western Wallop storms are all going to head straight east and hit little ol' Wisconsin. Today we have storm #1, this weekend the big event will be storm #2 with copious amounts of rain and perhaps a thunderstorm or two. Oh, and the total number of storms on this train track can now be counted on BOTH hands!

You see #1 on the map heading towards Wisco and #2 is hitting the mountains, #3 is hitting the west coast and sunny southern California is getting crushed with over a foot of rain in places and Los Angeles County is evacuating hillside residents, even Disneyland is closed.

So while I laugh at sunny California, when this is all over they will be sunny and warm and we will still be cloudy and cold.

This is where I alienate everyone.

The Massachusetts election results. WHO REALLY CARES. I'm done with big politics as both sides are really pretty stupid. As long as the President is not a total ignorant bozo like we had in the last 8 years I'm good.

The Democrats were ignorant in thinking that they did not really have to work on an election, the Republicans are ignorant for just by being anti-democrat just because they are the enemy. The people that voted for Obama and are now voting Republican because they are disappointed in Obama are ignorant because even though they all said "it will take time to fix the Bush/Cheney mess" and nothing is fixed yet. WELL - IT HAS NOT EVEN BEEN ONE YEAR!!! It took 8 years for the Republicans to totally f*ck up America (and when I say Republicans I really mean the neo-cons and the Fox Entertainment News Network).

All I know about the election is that Health Care Stocks went zooming up because they know they will get a ton of income and can continue to overcharge the American lemmings for drugs and make HUGE profits. The election puts the stop to reforming health care (so Americans will continue to have one of the worst health care programs of all developed countries) and puts a stop to healing the climate as new climate change laws on the table will be stopped.

BUT - - - - I don't care, not gonna get stressed, nothing I can do.

Whatever happened to common sense, why not work together. Perhaps it's ALWAYS been this way and that is why in MY perfect world we would always have one side be President and the other side own the House and Senate. Give and take, checks and balances, let's work like a team. But . . . . . .that is not the American way which is pointing fingers and making up facts.

SO - I wash my hands of National politics as it takes way way to much energy and just makes people stressed out and in reality, it's the local politics that have more effect on you and I think our Mayor is doing a fine job.

For you and me it's all about co-mingeling recyclables, the Udey Dam, downtown improvements, snow removal, grocery stores, and the Library Building Project. Those are the things that we should be concerned with.

------------------------------------------

SO - Leno wins and Conon loses. Well, did Conon REALLY lose? I don't think so unless you call getting 40 million dollars and the best advertising EVER a loss. I am not sad for Conon.

OK - gotta run

Have a great Wednesday
