Democracy, Afghan-Style

The nonsense about Afghanistan is stupifying. Hamid Karzai is a CIA-stooge and the election was rigged to an extent that Hizzoner (the late) Richard J. Daley of Chicago would be envious. Jeb Bush has eclipsed Hizzoner in the election theft Hall of Fame. Let freedom reign ring! If this is (fair & balanced) cynicism, so be it.

Vintage Ben Sargent

One of my favorite editorial cartoonists is Ben Sargent. Gracing the Texas state capitol grounds is a granite tablet bearing the Ten Commandments. The Fraternal Order of Eagles gifted the State of Texas with this lawn decoration some years ago. A defrocked lawyer in Austin has filed a lawsuit alleging violation of the separation of church and state. The U. S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear the case. Ben Sargent imagines the state capitol grounds after the decision of the Court. If this is (fair & balanced) fantasy, so be it.

Why?

Why do I blog? I get to vent and I enjoy seeing my blog in a nice Web format. As a former Web page creator, I take pride in the aesthetics of a Web page that is associated with me. I have found my voice in an elegant Web page. Perhaps no one reads my ranting and raving, but youneverknow. If this is (fair & balanced) full disclosure, so be it.

BLOG OFF - why blog
by Steve Holmes
Do you have any theories about why people blog...

To show off ???
To be noticed ???
To make a point ???
To sell something ???
Because they're addicted ???
Because they need to be liked or admired ???
To find friend and lovers???
Because they believe they are good networkers and must keep up the exercise???
To capture the beauty of their own enlightenment???
Because the cat doesn't laugh at their one liners????
Another chance to admire their own logo !!!!
To get themselves a butterfly
To scratch the itch of other people's comments
To share important knowledge
To be cool

Is there a truly worthy reason...
