It was a truly beautiful weekend, so TFL and I took off on a ride last Saturday.
Man, it was good to be back on the bike. We went up 95, which is horrid, but branched off on 7 and then stumbled upon the 33 to 35 route--stunning. The perfect road, all twisty and hilly and charming.
I'm trying to concentrate on that pretty ride and the hope of another this weekend to distract me from the news of the day, and the amoral idiots who are making me spitting mad.
It's like an equal opportunity slime fest, where the game of the day is to mangle language and logic to make the awful seem . . . acceptable, even laudable. I've been livid about this issue for years, and appalled at the willful blindness and nauseating apologetics, and now those who should be cleaning house are all about sweeping things under the rug.
Shame on them. And more shame on us if we let them get away with it.
...what?

Yes! Could we please get back to being the country that takes the moral high ground? Or maybe the one that believes in the rule of law?

I'm glad you got to enjoy a ride, and I'm sure this should be clear to me, but what issue are you talking about? (Maybe because a few come to mind- how sad is that?) I do so miss our political discussions in the halls of the law school!
