JUST A MOMENTS REFLECTION
It seems that in recent months that we have been criticizing the Russian President for perceived “pull backs” of personal freedoms in Russia. Has anybody read the Patriot Act lately? There is an old adage about glass houses.
It would be good if the loudmouths preaching Neo Conservatism remember it.

YOU JUST CAN'T BE A HERO ANYMORE
You know.... that if you were college in the 60's and 70's you more than likely experimented with something. For some the experiment goes on to this day and for some it does not.
Does the President want to admit that he did drugs? Of course not! Why would he? Why would we want him to admit it in the first place? It has nothing to do with anything today.
You know we talk about no role models. We all know that the people that make the Role Models were not perfect. Washington and the cherry tree, Please! The Babe...not a good choice. People have flaws. Clinton, well not exactly what the kids needed for a role model, but you got to admit the whole Monica thing was pretty funny. And for those that think he got away free. May I remind you that the Poor poor bastard sleeps with Hilary and has to listen to her? Any of us guys out there want to live with their wives after we screwed up like that and been caught? I rest my case. Have some mercy.
So we get the Prez to admit he smoked pot. The child we are trying to prevent from starting now says why not?
The Prez has indicated that he used to drink more than socially. He stopped that. I think that I can rest assured that they are not rolling fat ones and drawing lines out on the oval office desk. Even though again there is a certain Cheech and Chong Humor in the visualizations.
You know sometimes we can make people too real. And that makes for lousy role models.
I had a Father in law once that used to say that there was only one perfect man on this earth and we crucified him.
Not that I am Christian at all, but I saw the wisdom in what he said. Seems we are still all too willing to crucify anyone that tries to do a good job. I guess it is just the jealousy.
I know somewhere out there is the argument going on, "Well the election went okay in Iraq. I guess this vindicates him a little." and the response of "Oh hell no, he used to smoke pot and won't admit it." out of some foaming at the mouth anti-Bush Zealot. "He is a monster trying to ruin the world."
Come on lighten up. We got real work to do.
Gosh you folks are funny.
