breaking boring news

It is just you Beagles complaining about the length of the collusion investigation.  Oh, you and all those guilty Trumpists who feel the hounds nipping at their toes, oh and all those republicans who have sold their souls to that loathsome toad.  Everybody else likes it just fine.  I don't  recall you and all your ilk complaining about the Benghazi investigation that went on much longer and came up with zilch. 

Would you have wished Watergate to end before Nixon was ousted?  Would you have said Oh, I'm bored, carry on Dick, I'm bored of these proceedings?

How have you avoided seeing Woodward on tv or even photos of him?  He is indeed our age, probably a few years older.  I like your comment about fun being more work than it used to be.  I have always thought that the aging process is about comfort becoming more important than fun. 

But like you I am not big on disaster coverage.  I keep thinking why don't these people live in the midwest where god wanted them to live where there are no hurricanes or earthquakes, just the occasional tornado or snowstorm which are much less dangerous?  Right now Florence is kind of exciting wavering in front of the coast slavering her white jaws, but once she hits and then hovers above bringing forty days and forty nights of rain in a couple days and people are digging out I will have lost interest.  I feel for the people, but you know, is it news? 

I guess the news will be how Trump handles it, how far he can toss those rolls of Bounty?  Of course he won't be doing it.  He will be playing golf, it will be Fema and whatnot, led by his hacks who are only there because they puckered the best on his backside.  Then there is that story about Fema funds being diverted to ICE.  Ah, politics, something to liven up a dull disaster story.

Remember when Obama drew that red line in Syria (chemical weapons) and then when Assad crossed it he wriggled away from it?  He caught a lot of flack for that, but I thought drawing the line was his biggest mistake and wriggling out of it was the smartest thing he could do. 

Trump bellows a lot, but thus far he has resisted an actual war.  But have you noticed that weaselly little Lindsey Graham cuddling up to Donald?  He has always wanted to put our troops somewhere, preferably Iran, but really anywhere is good for him.
