Every now and then...You have to laugh

We know all about the overwhelming need to laugh out loud, while living in the theater of the absolute absurd.

Finding a Voice: Every now and then...:

Every now and then even in this most serious of times it is hard to suppress a fit of the giggles. It isn’t just the nervous titters that may surface inappropriately during silent prayer in a house of worship for example but rather a sardonic take on the sheer absurdity of this inept administration and the rhetoric articulated by a raft of wannabes vying for higher office.

Take the responses offered up by Alberto Gonzales at the Washington Press Club recently. Not so different from his non-answers to members of Congress they provided nonetheless amusing insights into this man’s off-beat approach to his job as Attorney General. It isn’t funny of course that he has made a mockery of one of the country’s most important institutions but that he seems so smug doing it, as if politicizing the judiciary were simply a Republican coup de grace - - something to be proud of, for which no explanation is required.

Read on, it gets more hilarious...or more suicide inducing, depending on your frame of mind.
