rant for today

tell 'em, bob herbert!

when people act in ways that i find repulsive, i try to tell myself that they are doing the best they can.  but sometimes i can't believe that.  then i start to tell myself that people are crazy and you can't reason with everyone.  some of the crazy tea party people?  unreasonable.

(also, how will history remember a political party with the acronym TEA to stand for "taxed enough already"?  THIS IS A RIDICULOUS ACRONYM.  i realize that tea parties in the 1770s were for freedom from an oppressive government and these tea partiers now think they are working for freedom from an oppressive government, but seriously?  it's was on a different level then.  GET A BETTER NAME.)

end rant.
