Dusting off a post from my old blog . . .

Because I caught a few seconds of Jamie DuPree giving Neal Boortz some flack today. Paraphrasing here, but the remark was something like "and yet, Neal, if he was supporting the Fair Tax, you'd be saying he's the smartest guy in the world!" Ha! Go, Jamie, Go -- jab him again, for me, pleeeze!

Here's my old whine:

Not dead . . . . yet

Though I still like to wear my "Better Fred than Dead" shirt from time to time -- sigh!

I get so tired of the meme that there wasn't a candidate in this election cycle that represented a return to Federalist, Constitutional constructionist values -- feh! There just weren't enough people willing to be patient, let him get his s**t together, and get behind him! They all flocked to the first self-proclaimed conservative that looked electable, then scurried to the next and the next as each one failed. Of course, it didn't help that the Fair-Tax gang went and anointed that dweebus from Arkansas. Up until the Iowa straw poll, no one had even heard of that jackass -- would have and should have stayed that way! Of course, now that the squirrel-eating dweeb is more-or-less gone, having supplied an abundance of embarrassment on his way out, I finally heard his water-carrier-in-chief, Neal Boortz, say that the only way the Fair-Tax plan will ever gain support is from the ground up -- DUH!!!! This after months and months of saying that what it really needed was a champion -- aaaaaaaargh!

Snivel.

So now we're left with the prospect of gang-of-14 McCain and a Democrat congress.

Time for some more chocolate. And a garden plan.
