6. I like it too ... and if we help spread it around, it will be on "everyone's"
lips and it won't matter who said it first!

I really believe in the ability of just a few or even one person to influence many simply by repeating a word or a phrase everywhere they go. When I was in high school, my friend and I thought we'd test the idea and invented a word and a meaning for it and just started using it with others. When they asked what it meant, we'd tell them, but otherwise we just used it like it was already a word.

I swear it wasn't a month until you could hear that word ringing through the halls in our school quite often!

Such efforts produce fruit even more quickly these days, too, with the enhancements of communication we have.

Also, I keep hearing Watergate being mentioned more and more lately, and that's definitely a good sign. I think people are, to use a very old saying, believing that where there is so much smoke, there must be some fire! All the 'Publican scandals and the growing number of investigations of White House people ... it's all building up in the minds of Americans, even those who don't pay close attention to politics.

I'd love to see a lot more of those stunned looks on the faces of that pack of smirkers in OUR White House! Chimpy and his pals don't have a care about all the harm they've brought to our country and us, but they sure as hell care about their own hides!

Am I sadistic to think about their discomfort with a certain level of glee in my heart? Sometimes I worry that I'm getting vengeful, so I just try to think of it this way: I hope they all get what they deserve!
