I Have Only Come Here Seeking Knowledge.

You consider me the young apprentice
Caught between the Scylla and Charybdis
Hypnotized by you if I should linger
Staring at the ring around your finger

It’s late. I’m doing school work. I missed posting and reading this weekend because I took a trip late Saturday to the mountains, with a board and a violin man.

I have only come here seeking knowledge
Things they would not teach me of in college
I can see the destiny you sold
Turned into a shining band of gold

Good thing, as it turned out, because my neighbors informed me the electricity went off shortly after I left and didn’t come back on until Sunday evening, three hours or so before I returned home. Yea, my neighbors watch me, they know when I leave, what and who I take with me when I go, and when I return. Take that Doug.

I know it’s kind of creepy.

I’ll be wrapped around your finger
I’ll be wrapped around your finger

Here’s the thing.

Mephistopheles is not your name
I know what you’re up to just the same
I will listen hard to your tuition **
You will see it come to its fruition

Clinton is a rather grand manipulator. Couple that with American’s stupidity, and she is right back in the race, and thinks she’s winning, almost half of us are convinced she is. Her campaign changes monthly, depending on which way the wind blows, in order to make sure we don’t smell the cow shit.

Devil and the deep blue sea behind me
Vanish in the air you’ll never find me
I will turn your face to alabaster
When you will find your servant is your master

We were manipulated into a trillion dollar war by an idiot last time. What chance do you think we have against someone who is actually good at it?

Ohhh, you’ll be wrapped around my finger
You’ll be wrapped around my finger
You’ll be wrapped around my finger

Please don’t make make it a choice between Scylla and Charybdis.

There is a better way.

Peace.

That would be a dire choice, indeed.

Oh baby, I love it when you talk dirty.

But there’s no cause to be dissing good Amish cow shit by comparing it to HRC.

What is up with her offering the 2nd seat to Obama? It’s not as if she’s actually winning the damn race for numero uno. Damn but I hate her arrogance. She must still believe she’s the annointed one. I don’t think of her as a church lady but that’s about the only place where there is ever talk of being annointed.

Or maybe she believes she’s our savior. Idk, but there is but one Savior and his (her) name ain’t Hillary Clinton.

She’s losing. So she offered Obama the VPship to make it appear as if she’s winning.

Harold Ickes daddy was a master manipultor in FDR’s admin–the Ickes Diaries are fascinating. Ickes was a small kid when his father died but obviously studied them

He was out of favor with the Clintons but came back strong. Between him, Hill and Bill they can manipulate big time–and I was a big Bill supporter

The only political signs I have seen here are for her. It’s not comforting.

Glad you were away snowboarding with a violin man when the electricity was out :)

…..I start to really apreciate you girl….dearest Hillary is in my town Scranton, Pa. Like an idiot I got caught in her appearance(TV- not idiot enough to go see her) and missed the news on the other stations. I thought she was sickening as she spouted the name of as many local towns and land marks as she could in 45 min. I did not think there was an overwhelming crowd response for a woman who loves to call herself a local girl. She lets on she visits friends here, ya she had to come when her father died and that’s about the size of it.

A smile for you…..as I am reading here local news is on…50 some yr old man tries to coax 9 yr old girl into truck. Proof as to how stupid people can be…truck is “BROWN AND PINK”

keep up the good work girl!

Yes, exactly what I would have said “If I only had a brain”.

Good song choice, funny how these things work out.

I miss snowboarding.

Cooper -
Every breath you take, every move you make, every bond you break, every step you take, you enlighten me.
Let me try to set your mind at ease.
Unless this country has lost it’s mind (and there is a debate about that) there’s no way in hell that Hillary will ever get into the White House unless she’s invited - and it’s a slim chance that that would ever happen.
Why do you think Columbus, Ohio got buried with 20″ of snow? God was pissed at them for their indiscretion by endorsing Ms. Hillary.
Yeah, Hillary is flopping like a fish out of water. Hopefully the American people will start smelling the stink of her vacillations.
I sure do.

The spin is amazing. She has so many think she is driving from the backseat, when she’s really in the trunk.

The only quibble I have is with the characterization that our President is somehow stupid. That’s an air, a huge put-on. Go look at his debates with Ann Richards when he was running for governor of Texas. You wouldn’t recognize him.

When he does his little monkey dance these days, and mispronounces words, it sends those on the left into an absolute frothing frenzy. It neutralizes them, when they focus on the apparent stupidity. And it works. The puppet-masters on each side of the aisle have perfected this art of the Smokescreen. Get the Bible-thumpers in a lather, and make them spend their energy looking ignorant. Set the peaceniks all a-twitter, and watch them write letters of moral indignation.

While Rome burns.

Nicely put.

I don’t know if Bush is stupid, more like ignorant and sly at the same time. He’s rich though, richer still since this last eight years.

We the People - pretty much stupid, or at least putting on a good act.

One of my favorite Police songs.

I agree: Bush is not an idiot. He is ideolog. And when it suits him, he can be whatever the current task is. His stumbles where a mask; to show he’s just “the average man” doing “important work” for the American people.

I like how you think - though your vote would be wasted on me. (Did you forget - not qualified to run…) ;)

So, did you enjoy the escape to the hinterland?

Nice Police song…an album filled with controlling themes.

Control, not a word used in the Clinton household. (Yeah right.)

“Eliot! Eliot!” should go home, not to phone his hooker. Poor wife - she actually not bad looking - can’t be feeling too swell, as if she ever did, in knowing that her husband’s been getting ‘favors’ for nearly a decade. (And she knew…specially given his top-dollar tastes.)

I suppose ‘Client 9′ becomes inmate #1956788, if the hound dogs get their way.

Nuff said.

Ironic. I figured Obama would be offering Clinton the VP during the convention. And she’d decline, leading to an Obama-Edwards ticket. I still think it might happen - after all, Kennedy’s path to the election was never smooth.

I knew it. Trumpets never win against violins. ;)

Obama-Richardson provides a guy with good advice and foreign policy experience. The question is whether Richardson can remove his nose from Bill’s ass.

mojo: It would indeed. Nov Scotia maybe? N Prince Edward’s Island.

sk:”Oh baby, I love it when you talk dirty.” Oh, I haven’t started yet.

Pia: No, it’s not comforting. And what the hell is wrong wirh Geraldine whatever the heck her name is coming out and playing that game? Clinton campaign strategies make me more certain everyday that I will probably not be able to vote for her under any condition.

KAK: I’m glad you weren’t lured to her side. Could you please go out and talk some sense into the rest of your state. I’d do it, I’m not that far away, but I’m quite busy these days.

G: Be safe G.

Morgan: Smells ever worse today.

Ike: I think it makes them so furious with themselves that they can’t think. Actually we are the stupid ones falling for the show prepared from Nazi Germany’s play book.

Jacob: “richer still since this last eight years ”

No doubt.

Jason P:
Hinterland was nice, but way too brief. There was not much which was winter here this year.

amoeba: They obviously do sometimes.

SK: I always think of Richardson as having his head up someone’s ass, though admittedly I know very little about him - first impressions.

Did you hear the latest in bullshit from her camp? It boggles me that people are still supporting Clinton.

Wombat - clinton’s camp is nothing but a dungheep, or, as we say in the regular vernacular of the American people, her camp nothing but bullshit.

WOMBAT: Yea, I’ve been staying away from watching any campaign news as it is giving me indigestion and I need a break. I’m weary.

sk: oh so bull shit is ok, but cow shit is mean to Amish cows? ;)
ha….

It takes one little click of the mouse sk - come on.
