A heartbeat away

It is amazing how liberals both fear and scorn Sarah Palin - entertaining surreal visions of a Palin presidency as representing something like a fascist state run by Lucy Ricardo - and yet never give a second thought to the kind of chief executive Joe Biden would make. When last seen, the Vice President of the United States - the serious, seasoned, experienced, politically savvy Vice President of the United States - was engaged in a squirt-gun fight with journalists.

    Hell, they don't even notice that our current president is about as competent as Gilligan.

    I prefer to think of Obama and Biden as Ren and Stimpy, Jorg.

    But I take your meaning.

    More like Mack and Meyer. They were never even good enough to make it to Abbot & Costello level...

    Irobot: I'm touched that you should remember. Thank you. It's also Flag Day here in the U.S.

    I remember there are three things I've commemorated on this day for a very long time:
    1) Flag Day (all my life)
    2) Husband's birthday (29 years)
    3) Paco's birthday (9 years now, since we "met" at Blair's?)

    Happy Birthday, Paco!

    A couple of years ago you mentioned Flag Day in the U.S. and the fact that Flag Day shares the important anniversary of you birth. I share the date of birth, albeit maybe slightly less years than your good self.

    So as long as I draw breath, have access to a computer and have not suffered a degradation of my cognitive faculties, I will always send best wishes from Down Under for you birthday.

    Have a great day.

    prairiecat55kc - Best wishes to your husband as well. We are in good company.

    I may miss the occasional letter when typing a comment through lack of sleep though.

    Thanks, Prairie Cat. I've always been particularly proud about having been born on Flag Day (although I had nothing to do with it).

    Apropos nothing, I guess.

    When I first saw the picture, I thought "Who's the woman in camo?"

    Happy birthday, Paco and Mr. Prairiecat.

    As for our soon-to-be erstwhile leadership, I've long thought they were Mutt and Jeff personified.
