Pennsylvania = 2p - (Alabama/200,000)

I had a minor acute myocardial infarction earlier.  I was watching the election results come in on the Fox website.  Pennsylvania was blue.  I was bluer.  I was trying to fathom another term of democratic governance, hence the title of this particular blog.  For those of you who don't live in the fine state of PA, first, you're probably not reading this blog, second, PA consists of two separate entities.  One entity is P squared, or Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, the second, Alabama (Pennsyltucky for you purists).  PA is like a giant conservative sandwich of which the only liberals are the crust.  I'm starting to understand why some children prefer their bread without crust.  Mommy, please peel the liberals off of Pennsylvania.  Year after year after year for more years than I can recall, and probably more years than my late great grandmother could recall, the P squares have decided the fate of our state.  We end up with democrat governors who are allowed seemingly endless terms to grind our wondrous state into one of those ugly colors you get when young children are allowed to play with more than one color of play dough at the same time.  So, after the nasty play dough mixes we finally get wise and elect a conservative (I use that term lightly since p2 would never elect a true conservative) to attempt to clean the mess. They never actually get done (think tiny play dough nuggets stuck in the carpet), and then p2 forgets the disaster the liberals created and elect another one to start mixing the colors.  In reality, I was sitting and watching and trying to think if I had a clue who Onorato even was before I started seeing signs planted way too close to the road (and in a hairpin curve).  We all (pennsylvanians) know who Corbett is, he's been here for quite some time.  He's actually done some conservative things (maybe he can come to my house and remove the play dough specks).  He filed a suit against Ocare, which gets a vote from me.  I really don't understand why I still see Toomey is losing.  What is going on here?  Did anyone even know who Sestak was before he slaughtered Specter?  A tested and true conservative is fighting against some ex military liberal (is that possible? oh, yeah John Kerry, and it's still disturbing he's enjoying the late Senator Heinz's wife and fortune, well, only his fortune, she can't actually be enjoyable can she?) and losing.  I think I'll just call the doctor and get some nitro glycerin, I may need it.  Cut the Crust PA.

Toddlers for Congress

Is anything productive happening in Congress? Should anything productive happen there? Would toddlers appreciate a socialist state? Can toddlers comprehend socialism?

It seems that Congress (Dems and GOP included) are spending their time arguing about who's pet project receives the most funding rather than listening to the American people. Is that the way it is intended? Do any of our representatives have our best interests at heart? When a majority of the American people want no part of a "single payer" health care policy, why is Congress still crafting models of it? Can Nancy Pelosi hear, or did a botched botox destroy her aural integrity? Does Harry Reid listen, or do the voices in his head drown out millions of taxpaying citizens? I'm convinced that Mr. Obama doesn't care what the people are saying. If he truly has a degree in law with special emphasis on Constitutional Law, then he should know that the will of the people is the law of the land. But, maybe, the degree with emphasis was for a different notion. Perhaps the Constitutional knowledge would also be necessary to work around, rather than within the law, legally. (I only had to write that sentence once, you may have to read a few times) Sun Tsu, a Chinese General, said (a partial quote) "know thy enemy". If your enemy is the Constitution, a law degree with a Constitutional law emphasis, would be invaluable. If your enemy is Mr. Obama, I'm not sure what to study, he changes his mind too often.

Now to the toddlers:

Let's elect toddlers for Congress. They'll work cheap (animal crackers, diapers, juice, milk, etc.) and it will be relatively cheap day care for parents. And, best of all, when the food is handed out in equal parts, they'll fight for more and behave just like the Congresspeople we're used to, showing us just how unrealistic socialism is.
