There’s a lot happening in the political world, tons of things I’d like to bloviate about. Such as: the Republicans sabotaging ANWR; the Republicans doing a “end-around” on President Bush and wanting an “extrication plan” from Iraq; Republican Rick Santorum holding Bush at arms’ length (and apparently not doing well locally), and the real truth about Iraq’s WMDs. I salivate even thinking about these topics.

But I’m going to take a break for the rest of the week as I find proper eyesight has a great deal to do with making cogent posts. My right cornea is scratched and its subsequent irritation is absolutely maddening. I still have to attend to my “day job,” and being in bright light, wind and weather is not helping a lot. Luckily, the doc says eyes heal rapidly. But it’s certainly made me appreciate good eyesight!
