Just a Heart Beat Away...

Reality in our century is not something to be faced.
Graham Greene (1904–91), novelist

I suspect the fact that the world, no matter who is elected, is going to start to change for the better once the "Disastrous Duo" of Bush and Cheney leave office on Jan.20, 2009. This is finally setting in and Cheney's heart is having a hard time accepting this situation.



Vice President Dick Cheney experienced an abnormal heart beat on Wednesday morning and will see doctors to ''restore his normal rhythm'' -- the second time in less than a year that he will have the procedure.

Cheney, 67, canceled a campaign event he was scheduled to attend Wednesday

Cheney doesn't have a heart and he is too mean to die.

Hey Jack, I agree, I should have made a comment about a normal heart beat too.

Astounding that Graham Greene's observation is meant to apply to the last century. It seems very prescient to me.

Hey Alice, I am not so sure it's prescient than more testimony, as if we needed any, that humankind has not progressed, especially when it comes to greed and power.
