Well...at least I got the heel turned and stitches picked up. Not a very productive day and tomorrow doesn't bode well either. I have got to get my decorations up which means I have to clean first. Ugh.
The DH has been keeping me posted on the latest goings on with the Office of the President-Elect. (how pompous is that?). There was some stuff on the newswires about a $30,000 ring His Highness was going to give the First Whateveryouwanttocallher as a thank you for her support. I thought spouses were supposed to support each other anyway but that's another topic. What makes this interesting is the timing and type of gift. First let's be clear on this. I don't give a rat's ass what people do with their money--that goes for number of houses, cars, or whatever. As long as they didn't steal it I don't care. What does strike me about this is here's a guy whose made giving back a linchpin of his campaign. Spread the wealth and all that rot. So he goes out and buys the missus a ring worth more than many make in a year made of materials from another country. Not something made here in the US mind you but something made from materials found only in South Africa. More proof that this guy is so bloody arrogant. Marie Antoinette had nothing on this unqualified tool. If he wants to buy whatever for that shrew of a wife that's his business but for this to get out in the news is such a slap in the face to all those 'middle America' people he sucked up to in order to get elected. You know, those Main Street folks that are losing their jobs as a direct result of the Dhimmicrap Congress and the social welfare programs they forced on the mortgage industry. And yes there is a direct link because all segments in the economy are intertwined. But that's a digression...Back to the main point.
Now I understand his official spokestools are saying he hasn't bought it, that it's a rumor, blah blah blah. I smell damage control. These nouveau riche twits know they've stepped on it and now their sychophants are stepping up to protect him. Not.Buying.It. It's going to be a delicious couple of years watching this incompetent fool try to govern. He couldn't govern his way out of a paper bag. There's your change.
Good news though, Chamblis may pull out a win in Georgia and things aren't looking good for Franken's attempt to steal MN. None of these races should be that tight tho. We need to clean house in the GOP. Get rid of these useless old fogeys like Lindsey Graham (SC) and get some more aggressive, true conservatives in there. I heard an interview between the above and Claire McCaskill and I swear I think I heard him say 'Ah disahgree with mah wuthy ahponent' on some point. What century does he reside in????? I'm a southern gal through and through but this freakin' Colonel Sanders routine makes my skin crawl. No wonder liberals have made such giant strides in the south. I'm willing to bet that if you put what the GOP stands for side by side with the Dems on a sheet of paper without listing them as such and asked any number of people to read through and check which they believe in they'd pick the GOP points. But somewhere along the line they get turned off by the people we have in leadership. Give 'em the boot or our party is toast.
