Live your life each day as you would climb a mountain. An occasional glance towards the summit keeps the goal in mind, but many beautiful scenes are to be observed from each new vantage point.

I Like Emmanuel
January 25, 2009 By
Sure, Rahm Emanuel is a free spirit. He’s a firecracker.
The guy exudes the kind of energy which I suppose can make some people uncomfortable. I’d like to go on the record saying I find Emanuel’s energy and passion refreshing. His antics are engaging and the more I see Rahm Emanuel in action the more confident I feel that he will serve both his country and his President well. Today The NYT ran the following piece on Rahm Emanuel. It’s a good read.
Rahm Emanuel is reconciling his fiery, bombastic ways with the cool and deliberate style of Obama World.

Palin’s $180,000 Wardrobe now stuffed in trash bags
January 23, 2009 By
Would someone from the RNC please dispose of those Palin clothes. Both Republicans and Democrats are tired of following the Palin wardrobe folly. The only thing that will stop the pain of these $180,000 VP frocks is to donate the clothes so they are out of our sight forever.
Someone… anyone… please catalog what’s in this trash bag and report anything which may have gone MIA. And then mercifully donate the clothes to charity so we can stop witnessing the sordid replay of this tragic tale forever.
