I wouldn't.

There have been numerous meeting in which someone does or says something that reminds me of a python skit, causing me to suddenly snicker at odd or inappropriate moments, doing what I can not to suddenly starting talking in a bad british accent.

Actually I looked "bink" up and it means a "bench." Have to remember that one for the next game of scrabble. And I would like it if judges started saying, "counsel, please approach the bink" or football players would say "i was upset when the coach binked me."

But in the end, if i went around saying I was an emperor because a wet bench threw a scimitar at me, they would still throw me away.

Yes, I don't like being called a disease of cereal plants caused by smut fungi.

But this smut fungi, this intrigues me...

Yet I would hazard that you weren't the only one that has partook in a buzz before watching some python.

Well Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Nothing says America better than a day of gluttony.

Yup. The only question is whether they think they can suppress or minimize the release when the dam finally breaks. In other words, will they flinch?

i should add that i think this will bring some reassurance in that Obama the scrapper (that appeared from time to time during the elections) will appear when it comes to HCR. With the physicians, hospitals, and phamaceuticals basically behind him, he knows it just the GOP and the insurance industry standing between him and real change (even if it is somewhat diluted). He's not going to back down.

i suspect that now that the senate bill is out there we will see a different Obama.

i hear you. but i still believe that Obama has the big picture in mind. rope-a-dope. as community organizer will learn, lasting change will occur only when the neighborhood first chooses itself to go down the path it needs to go down. Getting to that point takes time.

And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

So true.

And shifting our foreign policy approach toward these two countries is the perfect example of steering the ocean liner into a new direction. The complications involved can be easily seen in the brewhaha over Obama's rescheduling of the meeting with the Dali Lama.
