Nothing Much

I can’t get thoughts about trust fund babies on month long coke binges in Miami and oh shit moments out of my head. I’m not sure why. No, that’s a lie. I know why, I just can’t seem to get coherent and write something useful that ties it all together. Whatever. I hope all is going well with you bastards.
As a side note, I’m really enjoying the oh shit moment we’ve been watching play out over the Miers nomination. If you’re not familiar with the oh shit moment, it’s that really painful moment you want back right after you’ve done something unbelievably stupid, like putting your whole arm into a running woodchipper to try and grab the lit cigarette you just dropped into the hopper.
And just to be clear, I know it’s not the Administration that’s having the moment - the moment belongs to movement conservatism. That “oh shit” we’re hearing has something to do with the jarring realization, for some, that they have spent a lot of money, time and effort to put a trust fund baby in charge of their own country – a harsh reality to be sure. Why this sudden exclamation of “oh shit” didn’t come at a more opportune moment is a mystery that may not be solved in our lifetimes. For now I’m blaming it on solar flares.

That, my dear, was not only coherent, but you tied it all together with a big red bow. I wasn’t too sure where you were going with the trust fund baby stuff, but then you put it together and everything became crystal clear. Good Job.

I don’t quite get what they have against her. She’s reasonably young. She’s pliable and not terribly bright. She’s against abortion. What more do they want? Won’t she vote in a block with Scalia and Thomas?
