Bush's Plans to Legalize Torture

You know why the big push, all the sudden, by the criminal Bush
administration to make torture legal (retro-actively, mind you)? It's
because they know that Americans are about to say 'No,' to their failed
policies. This November, Americans are going to reject the failed
policies of fear, Americans are going to reject Bush's failed foreign
policy, Americans are going to reject this administration's ideas that
it's okay to treat people in our custody in a cruel and inhuman way.
The Bush administration knows that Americans are going to return to
sanity and elect Democrats back to the majority in both the House and
the Senate, and that when that happens, Congress will have, and use,
it's subpoena power to investigate the lies that were told in order to
drag us into a war of choice against a country that did nothing to harm
us. But even morefrightening to the neo-cons, is the fact that Congress will investigate their reliance on secret prisons and torture, and that Bush and Cheney and Rumsfeldand (Atty Gen.) Gonzales will probably be eligible to be brought up on
war crimes charges by international courts. That's why the big push, all the sudden, to retro-actively make torture legal.

Bob Newhart - Comic Genius Passes Away

 A true comic genius has passed away today. One of the first comedy albums I remember listening to as a child is "The Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart." His most famous shtick was the telephone conversation where the audience hears only his end of the call. The most famous and best of this is the " Introducing Tobacco to Civilization " skit.

Math Anxiety

I don't normally blog my school experiences, but I just found out today that I have to take more math. I thought I was done with math, but now I find out I have two more classes to take. I am so upset I can't hardly breath. I am so math phobic it's not funny. No, really, it's not funny. I have anxiety attacks in math class. I start to sweat and sometimes I literally start to shake. Years ago when working on my philosophy degree, I had to take logic and did relatively well. And I get so tired of having people tell me that since I did well in logic, I should do well in math. Well, it doesn't work that way, at least not for me. Otherwise (meaning except for the math) things go well. I am actually ahead in my Cisco class, primarily because I didn't take any math this quarter, and my Net Security class is a breeze. Fucking math! Whose ideas is/was it that one has to be a math whiz in order to work with computers?!
