Gagdad Bob said...: I know! And those same exit polls showed a close race between Walker and Barrett. I am so depressed.; 6/06/2012 08:35:00 AM
Gagdad Bob said...: BTW, post will be a little late. Had to drive the boy to school. Plus, I'm so despondent about Obama's success last night, that it's frankly a little difficult to get going....; 6/06/2012 08:46:00 AM

As I noted in a comment on AD, no union makes sense to me. If I don't like a job, I get a different one. Any skilled worker can do pretty much the same thing. In my lifetime, unions have been a means to protect the jobs of slackers and losers who don't really want to work in the first place. Public-sector unions only up the ante, garnering job security for the people doing unnecessary jobs, or, in the case of police and firemen, gaining unsustainable pension benefits which will bankrupt cities and states.

Welcome to the real world.; 6/06/2012 09:00:00 AM

But he said later in The Paris Review interview that he did not feel responsible for his own writing success, saying he felt that God helped him write. "The best description of my career as a writer is 'at play in the fields of the Lord.' It's been wonderful fun and I'll be damned where any of it came from. I've been fortunate. Very fortunate," he said.; 6/06/2012 09:13:00 AM

Yep! And getting willian to repeat mumbling points of last gasp desparation idiocies... a fine day indeed.; 6/06/2012 01:56:00 PM
