Dad and I agreed politically for a good five seconds. First thing I get this am, an email from Pop:
"So what is in common with these stories (he cites to, but pick anything this administration has commited) Both have governments lying about what they did. Why is it that politicians can never say they screwed up and make amends? Is it a macho thing? Or are they afraid they will look weak. No wonder the world hates us. We are bullies! We can't even be honest with ourselves, much less the rest of the world. We know what is right why don't we just do it and no more of this P C b$#!t . Ya know it's wrong say so! and act on it. Friendly fire accident, ok we screwed up. What can we do to mitigate our mistake and learn from it. Japan did something 50 years ago step up to the plate and say so then fix it as much as you can and put it behind you. Am I wrong here? love Dad"
So we are totally on the same page. Then in the subsequent email, he follows up with:
"I vote for the straight talk party NO Spin Look what it did for O'Reily ! # 1 In TV He even beats Jon Stewart!! Who is pretty good actually."
C'mon man, we were so close. Then you had to bring in O'Reilly. Good grief. This just set us back a good five years.
Oh and my "PPHD"? Phony PHD and proud of it.
