Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

A Conservative's Wet Dream

Well, it's Sunday and it looks as if China is going to have an emperor again.  They've had one for millennium so I'm not surprised.  They flirted with democracy for almost a century and didn't care for the fit.  Democracy isn't for everybody.  Historically speaking, the vast majority of their emperors were good for the country.  Like the United Kingdom, which still has a Monarch, they are not going to eliminate democracy completely.  Xi will govern for life.
What made me guffaw was see that the Idiot Jerk in the White House said "we will have that too, someday," or something to that effect. That fool is dumb as a fucking brick.  Our democracy is almost 350 years old.  Democracy is all we know.  Of course, having a King, or a Monarch, or an Emperor is a Conservative's wet dream.  Just trying to imagine what tugs and pulls in Mitch McConnell's dreams is... frightening.  This is a group whose members swell and inflate with the mere anticipation of control.  Don't believe me?  Walk up to a Republican and say "Total Control is yours," and you'll see how freaking easy it is to get a rise out of them; no need to whip or beat these instant mashed potatoes to get them stiff.

Wait a minute... is that Paul Ryan?

Anyway, I'm off for the next 4 days.  Of course, I'm going to have to work 6 in a row after that, but that's okay, I don't mind.  Tomorrow is supposed to be filled with sunshine, so I'll probably change out the dining room ceiling fan... though I might take the old one down today.
In a few hours the Paris-Nice bicycle race is being telecast live on NBC Sports Gold, so that will be playing on the big TV downstairs. 
And, of course, tonight are the Oscars.  Years ago I used to host parties... now it's just me and the dogs... well, mostly just me.  The dogs will be up in bed long before the Best Picture gets announced.  One funny thing to note:  last year Casey Affleck won for Best Actor.  This was after he'd been taken to, and I do believe settled, out of court for sexual harassment.  This year he's breaking with tradition and not going to give away the Best Actress Award... he's not even going to show his face at the ceremony.  What a scumbag.  Has his career tanked too?
