What a Riot

I just don’t quite know what to make of this. I mean, it’s as though I’m reading about U.S. Representative "My Great Grandmother." While she was indeed the sweetest person I ever knew, and I loved her bunches and bunches, she had something like a 4th grade education, and though she could garden and cook up a storm — and competently do lots of other things — she was simply, utterly ignorant about most things beyond that.

It’s not a crime. It’s not even necessarily bad. Then again, she wasn’t a U.S. Representative.

I will say that Katherine Harris discharged her narrow and specific set of duties, such as they were, competently back in the Florida election debacle. I don’t vote, and I’ve got less than nothing for GWB, but Big Fat Lies are something else entirely.
