On MSNBC’s Morning Joe at 6:17a.m., I just realized that former Republican congressman Joe Scarborough is a logical possibility for president in 2012 and his coming book will outline why.
I watch Joe and his crew every weekday but today he went off about Michael Vick doing a real amount of time in prison for a real offense but child rapist get a few weeks or a month. Joe said Vick was done in by PETA’s political correctness and I said amen. I also say people who were offend by Vick’s dog fighting should be equally offended by Darfur, the collateral death toll in Iraq and America’s blood history with slavery.
I love that dog Eddie on the T.V. show Frazier; he is a Jack Russell Terrier I think. But I love humans more. Those who love dogs like their children are entitled to their opinions and feelings but also stop wearing leather into steakhouse for a bloody filet. You seem like a contradiction or a hypocrite. We all love dogs on some level because their offer unconditional love and some people are hard for other people to love. Michael Vick was stupid and he has company.

This is off topic, but I recommend this article on toxic waste dumping in the black South. It mentions Taylor county in Georgia, which I think is in the 2nd District:

I have a follow-on to the story here:

This is off topic, but it might be of interest. The Facing South blog from the Institute for Southern Studies has a story about toxic waste dumping in the black South. The story mentions Taylor county, GA, which I believe is in the 2nd Congressional district.

“Michael Vick was stupid and he has company.”
We can’t fix stupid, but we sure can blog about it.
Good article. In this day and age, keeping perspective about what’s real, and priorities just seems to get lost.
Nicely said.
While I don’t favor intervention in foreign affairs, something like Darfur is the kind of thing I just can’t argue against and it makes Mike Vick and dog fighting look like comparing a serial killer to a serial jaywalker.
I also have to agree with Icarus when he says, “We can’t fix stupid, but we sure can blog about it.” Oh so true. And I’m thankful I have the Albany City Commission 😀
I’m still waiting for Sen. Byrd to wake up, literally, and call Darfur “barbaric.”

I travel in Eastern Europe sometimes, so I use Babel Fish to translate messages from my friends…the same with Spanish.
