Indeed the American people are on the verge of running over their very lame indeed so-called Lame Duck Session of Congress, which seems unable to get together to pass any legislation that the people need and want. Whether it’s tax relief, at least for the hard-pressed middle, or unemployment relief or eliminating the hypocrisy of “Don’t ask, Don’t tell” in the military, this Congress is useless. They might as well all go home and just stay there, and hope the citizens with the pitchforks stay in for the holidays.

Hey Chuck, have just been catching up on some of your recent posts, and, boy you are so right about so much. Lame duck congress in more than one sense, Noam Chomskey is a great thinker, and advocate, but you hardly hear anyone outside of Amy Goodman acknowledge that, and can I take it to the bank that you hated the Citizen’s United decision by the Supreme Court? Julian Assange – don’t even get me started on that injustice which is exposing our media for the hypocrites they are. Loved reading you!

Rick: Good luck with your radio program. I’m at Lake Geneva most of the time, but do get into Chi, usually for Monday evening Literary Club meetings on Mondays == Jan 3 onward. Maybe we could catch up over coffee or lunch one Monday.
