The new Me - time to start actually blogging

I have finally decided to do my daily blogging as I had planned to do prior to yet another 'am I in or am I out' couple of years landing at Cedars Sinai, which, thank god, I am done with at present. 

I wake up at 3:00am - as my dad did before me and after his dad did before him. I watch - or more correctly listen to the 'Overnight' and 'Early Morning' news broadcasts on the local CBS affiliate as I have had cable TV removed from my house. My productivity was in the toilet, so to speak, with that big color picture box leering and yelling at me about starving puppies and the like - so I yanked it. Here's the rub - antenna TV works just fine for news, etc., so once again the box yells my way for a bit in the am. Ya know what - I get to yell back at it, and I do.

When I hear most of the nonsense that is fed to us listenwatchers (my word), I can't help but yell or can I? Ah yes, the magic of the blog. For instance, the entire Republican Roadshow is more damaging to any of their candidates’ images than all the money spent on ads by the Democrats in the last 10 elections could ever be. Some facts according to Jim:

1. The country is tired of Bushes - period. Bringing 'W' out on the stump is like someone bringing out Joseph McCarthy because he is a good American. George Bush and more importantly his director and controller - Dick Cheney were the most harmful, destructive force ever to plague the White House. Are we forgetting that 'W' lost the popular (and would have lost it all if Florida hadn't been stolen thanks to old JEB's handiwork) election for his second term. The war that did nothing but de-stabilize IRAQ, etc. outside the US and Inside our country, it made a few specific people much wealthier - like the Bushes and the Chen's - while absolutely throwing our nation into a recession that exposed new lows in the character of Bankers, Oilmen and Republican Legislators. I need to mention the little known Cheney (a nick name) Bill that the Republican congress passed that was created by Cheney, for Cheney Family Wealth and nothing else. HOW CAN PEOPLE BE SO BLIND AND STUPID ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY BE CONSIDERING ANOTHER BUSH MEDIATED PLAGUE.
2. Cruz and Rubio or smart-ass, lying punks - who think if they yell the loudest that people will believe the lies. Rubio yelled - 'not in 80 years has a lame duck president had the gall to nominate a supreme court justice' - uh - he seems to have forgotten the Republican demi-god Ronald Reagan who did the same thing. Cruz never answers any accusations - he just smarts off like a sanctimonious pig - but the reality is that he is a young inexperienced punk who knows less than nothing about Diplomacy.
3. Now this one is one I just do not understand - the whining corpulent self-declared Chanteuse - ADELE. SHE CAN'T SING - PIANO MISFIRE OR NOT - IT WAS SHE THAT WAS SO DARN FLAT AND UNABLE TO MAKE EVEN THE 'EAST NOTES' IN HER GRAMMY APPEARANCE. Her songs are all whining miserable pooor me songs - you'd think that she would get the message from whomever it was that she is singing to in that droning tome with the 'called a thousand times' refrain.  How does she make that attractive? She wouldn't have made it past the first audition on Star Search, or any of Simon's shows.
4. One other thing having been a fat kid who got healthy after high school - and happy by the way, I do not understand the celebration of fat people. Take away the look issues, which are daunting - trust me, what about people's health. Carrying around an extra 200 or more lbs. like the sweet black female actress whose name escapes me, is bad for you, your heart, your ability to breathe, your ankles, etc. BY cheering someone’s fatness, we are enablers of the worst kind. It saddens me that this argument has been contorted into a judge not lest ye be judged issue. I am glad now, although at the time it was difficult for me, that my jock judge loved me enough to tell me the truth. So, don't we love any morbidly obese people enough to save their lives?
