Float like a butterfly…

Muhammad Ali was the greatest heavyweight boxer of all time. ‘Float like a butterfly. Sting like a bee.’ I like that.

Today was my day to sting. The war in Iraq? I take the high road. The slumping economy? I take the high road. After all, I didn’t have anything to do with either one. Taking the high road means I get to roll a few boulders down on Hillary and McCain.

Pinning blame on bad situation is child’s play. Both McCain and Hillary voted to go to war in Iraq and now almost everyone who can vote hates the war and anyone who had anything to do with it. That would not be me.

Now we have an economic malaise bordering on a full-fledged recession. Oh, what should I do? What should I do?

I know. Let’s go visit workers at a General Motors plant and blame their woes and the company’s woes on a failure of leadership in Washington. After all, Washington spent a few hundred billion of their taxpayer dollars on a futile and unpopular war in Iraq, right? So I blamed the whole shebang on Clinton and McCain-Bush. Anyway, Hillary got all upset and stated telling anyone in Wisconsin who would listen that I’m good at speech making, and rhetoric, but totally afraid to debate her face to face because I don’t have any depth, details, or plans to offer.

Good point. But, then again, that’s what ‘float like a butterfly…’ is all about.
