This quickly gets problematic. "The PM swears like Richard Nixon? But I know someone who goes to <i>his church!</i>" (Actually, the potty mouth isn't the only thing he has in common with Nixon, IMHO.)<br /><br />Anyhow, if you've got room in that sidecar of yours, I'll be happy to hitch a ride for a stretch.Whisky Prajerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14076228013022881173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329706.post-62239884681394317462011-04-19T11:49:40.004-04:002011-04-19T11:49:40.004-04:00I know I should care, and sometimes I do, but more...I know I should care, and sometimes I do, but more and more I have come to realize that I am butting my head against the wall to try to make sense of the US political scene.<br /><br />It just makes my gut uncoil to listen to these overbloated hot wind bags.
