As I was having my coffee and oatmeal and innocently reading the paper this morning, I nearly lost my breakfast upon reading that the Bushes are going to decorate the White House Christmas tree with representations of 400 birds from across America. That is the most hypocritical thing I’ve heard (at least in the last 24 hours) about the Bush administration (no comment on Laura). If he likes native birds so much, what in the HELL was he doing relaxing all the environmental regulations last week?? Most things about his policies and the giant discrepancies between his words and actions I let roll off my back so that I live to see my 35th birthday, but this irritates me so much I could spit.
Also as a mark against the day, I spent an entire hour waiting in the post office to mail packages to England. Must remember next year to mail items earlier to try to avoid the lines (and, of course, the airmail charges). Luckily I had something to read with me.
