Life in the Banana Patch

A collection of thoughts and asides about life. And if I think of anything that needs to be mocked, it will show up here.

"If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way."
--Bertrand Russell

So, the Republicans in Congress are upset about the amount of spending in Obamessiah's (aka The One) economic bailout bill. (I know I know it's an economic recovery bill, but it's just another bailout: money to people we are giving enough of our money to.) They say it will increase the deficit.

No really! The party that gave us the largest deficit in history is saying Democrats spend too much. That's like the pot calling the kettle bla. . .
