Time to Peek Out of My Shell

WTF going on with Canada?
Is it just me,
(along with the release of Episode III)
or is there a twisted triangle between:

Prime Minister Paul Martin--
George W.--
and the Supreme Chancellor Palpatine
(aka the evil Emperor)??

A triangle framed by the mysterious,
haunting phrase:
"a vote of no confidence"?

A couple years ago,
some bus driver in Canada volunteered
some information according to his perspective;
he said, "You American? It's ok, it's ok.
You know . . . we wanted to help you in this war--
yeah, yeah. We wanted to go fight with our brothers--
you are like brothers. Yeah. But the government?
All French politics in Quebec--
they don't know what we want."

His voice and mannerisms still haunt me.

Why can't Israel have a Red Star of David? Muslim
countries have the Red Crescent,
we have the Red Cross, why not the Star?
Instead, they have to have a "crystal"??
A fricken crystal?

***

Who needs Kyoto,
an entire assembly of negotiating nations
trying to stop the long-term effects
of greenhouses gasses,
when we have Dr. Harlan L. Watson,
senior climate negotiator for the U.S. Department of State?
A man who states that the US is down .8 %
under Bush? or is it the past two months,
because of President Katrina?

***

Saddam Hussein may get off
on technicalities (thanks to an American
attorney--incredulous--a former General Attorney?!)--
if he doesn't die climbing 4 flights of stairs
everyday to his court room.

***

Heh-heh. "Guest-worker" Plan.
Don't guests get fresh sheets and towels?

***

Finally--here at home.
The school levy passed last year;
it has just been announced that the district
plans to hire more athletic coaches.

Thank goodness. Whew. That was a close one.
