Sad Day For America

I just turned off the television. I am so disappointed. I was watching C-SPAN, yes, I am a political junkie, and I just watched the Democratic Congress capitulate and give away our civil liberties while protecting corporate America. Yes, they are supporting telecom immunity. Retroactive immunity. Pretty nice for ATT, sucks for the average American. The vote was not 15 minutes old and President Bush was on tv gloating. When America voted for a change in 2006, this is not what we were expecting. More later, but I am so mad I could spit....

Oh, and by the way, Senator Obama, you are the de facto head of the Democratic party, what have you to say?


Can't hear you

Still waiting...

Before You Know It

It was just a few years ago that I dropped her off at kindergarten. Today was the last day of her senior year. Sunday she graduates and in August she is off to college. Where did all the time go? How did I get this old this fast? Where is that inquisitive and clinging child? My daughter is 18, self assured, intelligent, and independent. All things I relish. But just for a second I would like to have the four year old who surrendered so willingly to my hugs and kisses, sitting in my lap.

My kids are laughing

they are laughing at me because I am way too excited about having a blog. I don't expect that anyone will read this but, hey I am out there. I plan on ranting, raving and venting. And responding to any comments (even yours Alexa). So this too excited Mom enters this as her second post.

plasticgoat is on the intertubes.
