.....I would pay attention to petitions like this one from MoveOn.orgthat demand government do something to stop the influence of the oil companies on national policy. When gas jumps 40 cents a gallon overnight, you KNOW the fix is in.

....if my Attorney General was the kind of person that even members of my own party might like to investigate for legal improprieties, I think it would be a good/great/excellent idea to replace him, with someone who's a really good lawyer instead of someone who's just a dumb friend.
....I would probably say very stately things about the late Rev. Jerry Falwell, but don't really live at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and I don't have to say stately things. I'm a blogger who IMAGINES what it would be like to be in the White House, and thus it made me giggle when my astute daughter IM'd me the day Falwell died with this message: "I bet he'll be really surprised when he wakes up and discovers he's in hell."
My only thoughts were these: Yes, Falwell had a lot of influence, but I truly truly hope that when he arrives at the Pearly Gates, he's totally shocked to discover that god is a goddess (thanks, JIM!) and she's a kickass, feminist, liberal, Democratic, purse-toting gay Teletubby.
THAT would be divine providence, don't you think?
