A Frustrated Blogger

I've not posted a lot recently (though there are some new posts immediately below). In large part that's because while there's news, none of it is new. More death in Iraq. More deception about the situation in Iraq from the government. And then more death. And more deception. You get the point.

It's truly discouraging. I keep reading the reports daily and feel like the life is being sucked out of me. A glimmer of sunshine will peak through the dark clouds (like the Conscience Republicans who seemed prepared to stand up to the President on the torture bill) only to disappear as quickly as it can be noticed.

Michigan winters are a bit like this. Not enough sunshine. People grow dark with the sky. The depth of winter is still months away in Michigan.

Just as darker days are ahead for Michigan as winter approaches, the clouds still seem to be darkening for the US because of the Administration's policies in Iraq.

The first ray of light that may actually last would be the TRUTH.

Feeling discouraged,
GP
