Bauhaus... is a Very, Very, Very fine Haus

Bauhaus.

Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.

Forward thinker in the 3o's. The same 30's of the last Great Depression. GD 1.0

B.A.U. haus...

Business As Usual House...White House, House of Representatives and Senate House (forgive me...it needed to fit poetically to make the point...thank you...)

What the hell is wrong with our system you ask? What are they doing in Washington? Pedro of "South of the Border" has it right on his billboard..."Sign broken...made in Washington..."

The more we look the more we see the same old junk. These guys "just don't get it" None of 'em...not even Barry...

The Democrats are playing politics, which, thanks to Tip O'Neill, is only local, therefore not a national problem.

The Republicans are completely "deef", as Walter Brennan would have said.

They're all (Walter) Gropiusing around for solutions...

WE ARE UP THE CREEK!

THE BOAT IS LEAKING!

WE HAVE NO PADDLES, LIFEJACKETS OR CHARTS!

WE ARE TOAST!

But who cares?

Tom Daschle? Oh, sorry, I'll just pay the taxes now that I've been outed.

Tim Geithner? Oh, sorry, I'll just pay the taxes, now that I've been outed.

(...hmmm...a theme emerges Reggie...let's follow on closely as the story unfolds...)

Eric Holder?

Oh, sorry, I'll look more carefully the next time I sign off on a pardon for a billionaire contributor to my boss's vanity production.

Hillary Clinton? Oh sorry...bring on '12...let the campaign begin...!

Judd Gregg...give me a break! Bi-partisan my fantail...it's all about the Senate and the magic number of 60...can you say fillibuster-proof...?

Oh, and who the hell is Kirsten Gillibrand anyway? Gov. Paterson must really be sight-impaired...do the letters NRA mean anything in Albany?...Not Really Alert...

PLEEEEEEEZZZZZZZ!

We continue to elect these self-serving, ego-maniacal idiots who only think of themselves and their fat cat sponsors.

And why in God's name are we sweeping the alleged atrocities allegedly perpetrated by the alleged Bush/Cheney administration under the very real rug? Torture, bank fraud, torture, FEMA incoherence, air/water pollution, global warning (sic...not warming...warning...), Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, torture, The Muddle (sic...) East, Abu Ghraib, Prosecutorgate, Scooter, on and on and on and on...ad nauseum/infinitum...

E Bellicose Eatem'!

The Bauhaus had it right...forward thinking...break the mold...see it differently...do it differently...

What's the saying...?

"The defintion of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results?" You don't need to be Einstein to know that...oh, sorry...yes you, obviously, do...

So we're the ones who are nuts...we continue to put these clowns in charge of the castle and then wonder why we have hot oil poured on our heads from the ramparts above as we tred water and occasionally drown in the moat...

One man...one Moat...! (Why ain't that one in the Constitution...the old one from 1776...not the new one from 2000...?)

Business As Usual House...

Mies van der Rohe is rolling over in his modernist grave....and thanks Ludwig...

...sometimes "less is", in fact, much, much "more"...!!!
