Unless you live in a cave within the creation museum in Kentucky (strangely apropos location), you have to be bearing witness to the mountainous piles of partisan politics prevalent throughout the land. I mean, can you not find yourself choking down vomit at the prevailing party line rhetoric spewing forth from EVERYBODY? I hate the thought that any of these educated politicians actually blow hardy this tripe because it's what they believe. Come on. Over and above that, I'm insulted that they find the population is so gullible as to believe what they say. Feed me a line and I'll drag you down with it.
I know an election is brewing. I know we are on hard times. I also know that a partisan answer isn't in the works because neither party has one. Moreover, a bi-partisan solution is as likely as a solar eclipse tomorrow.
Don't think for a minute we can oust them all and replace them with common sense individuals like yourself, for if you favor extermination of all politicians and replacement of them, you're not making sense and I don't want you in office either.
Believe me, I'm as frustrated as you, but since I don't have an answer to the country's problems brewing in my head, I watch and listen for a modicum of reason to slip out and then that's the guy I will follow, party aside.

Who's reading this old stuff?
If I'm getting page views on this site the least I could do is to write something- for sure not anything related to ALS. I figure I need to show my considerably infected mind has all variations of spew with a limitless supply of hyperbole. If anybody comments on this post, I promise to bring you to the river and let it flow!

Can't sleep, might as well ramble......
You don't need wings to fly. Simply launch off a tall building and enjoy the experience while it lasts; after all, all experience is fleeting at best. Lots of people talk of eternity as if they have a notion what it is. With many, the here and now is simply a short stop before we are welcomed into the ever after. They are seemingly in waiting. Joyous at the thought of an eternity (again,no conception) where all is good and perfect. Looking forward to that inevitability seems to me close to suicide through wanting. I, for one will accept the fate when it takes me kicking and screaming. I want to look forward to the continuation of LIFE. At least through my perception it is tangible, it is real and it is precious. I'll take the here and now over the theoretical any time. Due to my condition, I look at the world slightly differently now. I see things and experience things in a more raw light. I have yet to figure out how to best deal with the time I feel is wasted in conversation leaning from banal to ludicrous. How do I not feel selfish when I blow off a do gooder who possesses more issues than myself, when I know I can decimate his beliefs and thus destroy his convictions. It would be preferable to me if I could simply say "don't waste my time" or "I don't follow that logic" or "thanks, but I need to leave now- send me an e-mail of your thoughts". Likely, I'd simply garner his pity at MY ignorance. You see, I'm pretty sure the earth is not flat, but we still have some "flat earthers" out there, and they refuse to budge. To me, the world at large would be poorly served with a 2000 year old science book.
