I had every intention of finishing entering the book edits tonight so the manuscript would be finished. Unfortunately, the mind and body failed to agree on this, and as I sign off for the night I’m still two and three-quarters chapters shy of the goal. Drat. Ah well. Pick it up again tomorrow.
As to the inauguration today, didn’t watch or listen. Thus, no comment other than observing how ideological differences are not a license to hate or disrespect. (Not that this has ever stopped an alarmingly large number of people on the left, but that’s their problem.) My prayers are for the new President that he governs wisely. And that the loyal opposition, including myself, conduct itself with honor. The “the right hated Clinton and the left hated Bush even more so now…” cycle must end. If for no one else, it ends for me.
I have nothing but contempt for the media’s naked hatred for President Bush and unadulterated worship of Obama, but as has been said earlier what is there to do but do the media’s job for it, since it refuses to do it for itself, and whenever possible report the news with honestly and impartiality? The world has enough opinion, thank you. It needs facts.
G’night.
