Good Morning Students. Welcome to class!

Class is now in session. The rules are simple; you get a grade if you use the WFTD in a sentence, haiku, limerick, or quatrain. You get a "+" if you make a link, or make the teacher laugh, or you offer the appropriate bribes. I hold the grade book; the whip and chair.

"The tragedy behind all this is that just gradually we're escalating the hostility," Ratliff said. "The real tragedy is that it was all predictable and avoidable. But each step that's taken, just by one more step, destroys the Senate that I knew."

I don't know why this man claims to be a Republican, he's a democrat without measure. He's won't condemn the 11 whiners, and now himself joins the whine "Oh woe is me, they've hurt my wittle feelings". Perhaps if he grew some balls he wouldn't be so apathetic about what is happening to our state. But I doubt that will occur, he so wants to be loved, and he can't be loved if there are decisive issues on the table. What a coward.

Ratliff 'distraught' over redistricting, contemplates resignation

There once was a member of the GOP
Who showed such a case of apathy.
Tragedy?
It's a comedy,
Centering around losers such as he!

Morning!

The apathetic Ratliff
Reminds me of McCain.
He needs to go away
Rather than remain.

i saw Terry Schiavo's parents on some FNC show. While her hub may be apathetic regarding her prospects for recovery, her family most definitely is NOT. i have no idea what the hub's problem is, but barring a PRIEST from seeing her is outrageous.

The gasoline "outage" in the East Valley/Phoenix area of Arizona is a complete outrage. Our Governor Janet Nepolitano has sat apethetically on her butt for three weeks before declaring we could use gas not apporpriately mixed for the hot AZ summers. The gas line broke July 30, and today she announces she asked the Federal Goverment if we could use the non-AZ gasoline. Guess what? She's the Governor. It's a State thing.

Apathy is ne'er a vice,
When practiced by the not-so-nice,
But when embraced by honest men,
Her ills are multiplied by ten.

Etymology on the part of Bill Clinton lead directly to the problems we have with world terrorists today. Instead of leading, he read the polls and played 'hide the cigar' with interns. Now he is telling Grey Davis that the vote in California is part of a Right Wing Conspiracy.

Been there, done that for 8 years, see where it got us on 9-11-2001?

Homework?

Homework about apathy?

Awhhhhhh, heck. As the democrats know about election laws, voter fraud and the constitution, who cares how good a punch card ballot you build, if no one would beat apathy to your door.

You know, there are just some stories that manage to take my chronic state of disgust with the world and pound it into a sort of weary, sickened apathy. Ugh.

Russia and the EUnichs show their typical apathy towards terror especailly when it is directed at the Israelis.

Russia, EU condemn Jerusalem attack, call for restraint [look who's talking]

Restraint. Restrain this you moral cowards. Let the Israeli's pave the place it's clear that the other side doesn't want peace.

Muttly need to know how to find Daily Word thread for his experiments.

Does your dog type too ? We find it very liberating, but many of my relatives see no need to expand their interests beyond professional begging, licking, sleeping, and complaining.

Come to think of it...who could blame them ? But Muttly have more on his little mind, and needs the outlet. Otherwise all the running in circles and digging and gnawing on things is hard on the backyard. Does your dog wear a racconskin cap too ? It's wonderful to have relatives in far-away places. I have several in New Zealand...where great, great, great....grand-dad was rudely asked to vacate his official position on a certain famous English Captain's ship. Seems the Captain was not amused by the chewed and "scented" condition of his extra boots whenever Grandpa's Rum-Ration was shorted.

Some people have no sense of humor.
