... meanwhile, our Senators are in Washington debating ... sharks? Yes, really. Sharks. The Hill reports, "The feud between Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) flared up again Wednesday over Coburn's objection to a bill protecting sharks. The shark legislation, which deals with a prohibition on the harvesting of shark fins, was one of several bipartisan bills intended to protect wildlife that drew objections from Coburn on Wednesday."
So we've got Senators in Washington debating the Great Cats and Rare Canids Act, the Shark Conservation Act and the Southern Sea Otter Recovery and Research Act. And over in the House, against the wishes of many in her own party, Nancy Pelosi herself broke the tie to send everyone home until the elections. But what about a budget? What about essential appropriations bills? What about tax increases? Nope. No time. Time for sharks. Time for Stephen Colbert to testify on immigration. But no time for something that will actually affect your life, your future and your wallet.
I'm just an individual who hopes to inspire but not impose his views on others. I seek not to convince but only hope that my words are written well enough to get others to delve deeper into their own thoughts and ideas. I am sincere in all that I say but never so serious as to not listen to the ideas of others
