While We Get Ready For the Superbowl Our Fortunes, Opportunities, and Liberty Slip Slowly Away On the Tide
Sessions faces a Congressional “grilling” says the news this morning. That conjures images of poor old Jacques DeMolay the Templar being roasted alive in Paris in 1292, but the press throws hyperbole and metaphor around the way monkeys fling dung at the zoo; only less accurately.
Does anyone think Trump won’t get away with absolutely everything he wants, or that the Cable News Nitwits won’t present a panel of apologists to tell us it’s all pretty normal and this is just another president like all the others and we have to let him do his job like good little patriotic Americans do?

An administration organized completely around cronyism and nepotism and personal gain and he’s going to get away with it while Congress goes through the motions, nodding together like serious statesmen deliberating reasonable decisions — while Kellyanne the harpy and the vituperating vermin at Fox explain our horror as just more Liberal propaganda: while we get ready for the Superbowl and our fortunes, our opportunities and our liberty slip slowly away on the tide.
