I’m developing two bald spots, one on either side of my head. No, it’s not a new round of chemo. It comes from repeatedly tearing out fistfuls of hair nearly every time I slip up and read the paper.
Today’s coiffure adjustment comes after reading this article in the Washington Times:
Agencies directed to focus on gas cuts

A textbook example of the pot calling the kettle “black”, the Dems are reacting badly (shocked?) that the Administration has preempted their latest tantrums about the environment and gasoline usage. Seems the Administration is elevating the issue of gas consumption by executive branch departments to worthy of some attention and action. Of course, the majority party propaganda machine takes yet another opportunity to impugn the integrity of any effort on the part of the Administration to act responsibly, and calls it (gasp here) “political”. Pish-posh on the fact that this same crowd has politicized everything from the support for the troops to the addition of fluoride to drinking water. Apparently, the majority party believes it has exclusive license for politicization of any given issue or topic. Again, the Administration is damned for doing, after being damned for not.
I fear that by the time the 2008 election finally takes place, I’ll be back to the Sinead O’Connor look.
