Here is another gem from Laura. She came in to my office this afternoon and told me that she had just seen a bit of a speech by Senator Clinton. She thought it very important that I be aware that Hillary Clinton had just told her audience that they wanted a President who would solve their problems, take care of their families and watch out for their children. (I don’t claim that to be verbatim.)
Of course my first thought is that I would prefer a president who would enforce the laws of the land, defend the Constitution, and tell the truth to the American people. I don’t need someone to keep pushing the lies that there are painless, if complex, solutions to the problems we have been busy creating for ourselves.
Upon reflection I realized that maybe Senator Clinton is really making a good offer – free babysitting of my kids. I’ll bet she’s a lot more dependable than many a teenage babysitter. Of course by the time I finished writing this I realized that she never said she would babysit for free – or even for cheap.
No, but hasn’t she promised that she will enforce public preschool? Isn’t that pretty much free babysitting for all? Ichh…
That is certainly babysitting for all, but free is not what it ends up costing.

I agree, definitely not free. Only to a few.
But what I wanted to say is I love the humor, and the fact that you are conversant about these things in your home.
I’m glad you appreciate it. It’s fun to cut loose a little even when discussing a subject as important as our government and the democratic process.
