The Rally to Restore Sanity

John Stewart and Stephen Colbert pulled it off.

They had a rally that basically said, "Let's not pretend that the hate-mongers we see on cable television and listen to on the radio represent us." 

They basically said what I have believed all along.  Few of us are purely Republican or Democrat.  We all want the same thing. We all work together every day to make our country strong.  Metaphorically, we all merge by taking turns, "you go then I go then you go etc."  Every now and then there is someone that tries to cut along the shoulder and crowd in at the last minute; but they are in the minority.

I strongly recommend that you watch clips on Youtube.com and read about it.

I went to see Playing For Change last night.  It was at a small venue in Petaluma.  There were about 150-200 of us there.  Here is a clip of them playing: video Playing for Change.

I took my three kids and two of their friends.  They all loved it.  I have watched this video every day for 9 days and have had 9 great days.  Maybe there is a link.

I just noticed that two things are missing from this election cycle.  First of all, George W. is not on the campaign trail.  What is that all about.  I leave it to you.

Secondly, the GOP is not campaigning on "Look what we have done for you." Instead, they are saying, "We will do the same thing and you will get something different from the last time we did that."  I wonder if that is going to work.

I know the GOP will pick up some seats and I'm glad for that.  Every elected official should know their job is on the line if they can't perform.    As for me, Boxer is history.  Pelosi is history.  The rest....I'll have to give it some thought.

I have taken up blogging with a fury.  Here is a list of links to my blogs: My Blog Links.

I seem to have a lot to say.  It's all part of my bigger plan to save the world.  Speaking of which...

Up, up and away...
