... w / momentous issues.
in many ways , this blog is a fluff piece
trivial
and ______________ ( words fail here )
Then I got to thinking of the line ' politics happens when more than one person is involved in a conversation '(paraphrased , somewhat ) Thus , if you talk to yourself and there's an argument - well its not political and crazy , only crazy
As well , many personal issues don't get a mention here - TG
This isn't FaceBook , Part Deux
Is politics , interesting ? Yes , only if you don't have a horse in the race. If your horse is involved , it then devolves into stupidity , thoughtlessness and loathsome behaviour - then on the brightside is .......
( kidding , kidding ) but you know exactly what I meant
I get a chance to see older movies e.g. ' All the President's Men '.
Seen w/ perspective , AtPM can be seen superficially as interesting.
I've heard the time of the Watergate burglary and subsequent inquiry and events , described as that moment when America lost its innocence.
The line in AtPM that stands out is when someone at the Washington Post ( Ben Bradley ???? ) says ' its ridiculous why would they do it ? '
And I'm thinking of the line from ' Instrumentalities of the Night '
...' in war and politics , don't waste time looking for deceit or conspiracy when stupidity and incompetence can explain the situation '
I guess they forgot about that line at the W. Post
As well , the truism , no politician thinks that they will ever get caught ... applies ..... they have such a disdain for normal rules of morality
I believe they all got that line ' I love my country ' , down pat. And scarier still that they believe it. They just forget / forgot what it means
Weather : cool , bright blue bird skies , w / a breeze that is stiff and cold - still mostly out of the N / NW.
