Hard to believe it’s Friday already, isn’t it? So, dubya is now so impotent, he couldn’t even get his boys in the Politburo Senate to pass his immigration bill. I have some pretty unmixed feelings on that. I think it was a shitty bill that only served to help greedy corporations obtain slave labor. And if it makes dubya look even dumber than normal, then so much the better. Of course, the immigrants continue to get screwed, and the whole reason it failed was due to ignorance, racism, and xenophobia, but, well, whattya gonna do? Dubya also stamped his feet and plead executive privilege in a very Nixonesque kinda way. Unfortunately, the law is whatever the Supreme Court says it is, so if he can’t run out the clock with legal maneuvers, he’ll still win. But, hey, it’s Friday, so who cares, right? Unfortunately, I have to train some new faculty today, on things that I know nothing about. I can hardly wait. Let’s get this week over with already.
