good morning...

I'm awake, in Anza, and staying home from work today. Last night as I was commuting home, I was feeling ill the whole trip, so today I get well, recover, take some time to sleep, relax, get some things accomplished that I have been neglecting, and take a break. I know that don't sound like taking a break, but for me that is taking it easy.

Today...

I'm going to take a nap....something I don't do often enough.

an open letter to Mr. Obama

Dear Mr. Obama:

When I first saw you I knew we had found new hope. You professed ideals I could believe in, you said you were for change. I thought you were different, different from the established politicians I have grown to hate. Now I see you making compromises, I see you drifting into the company of organizations that make me wonder. Faith based efforts need encouragement, not federal funding. We still have a separation of church and state don't we? There were some details that were sketchy from that meeting you had with the evangelicals... what is this about allowing them to use faith as a factor in hiring? Then there is your support for corporate immunity in the FISA bill. You said you would fight it and now you capitulate to the Bush regime and support all they wanted. Hey, the Democratic leadership was bought and paid for by the telecoms companies, that is why they changed their vote. How many dollars did you take? I'm very disappointed. Sure, I'll support you, because you are now the lesser of two evils. You deserve that title because you are betraying those who got you the nomination and gave you the resources to beat Hillary. You went from someone I could believe in to someone who might not betray us too much. When you take that oath of office and place your hand on the Bible, think before you say you'll support and defend the Constitution of the United States, think hard. Remember back to when you voted to re-authorize FISA and domestic spying. Then remember who believed in you. You have started to become just another politician who can't be trusted. Flip flop...flip flop....
