I have posted this video every Good Friday since I started this humble blog back in 2005, when we thought we had reached a nadir of sorts with the reelection of W. I don’t think it’s ever been so timely as this year, though I’m of two minds about whether Brian should, in fact, follow the advice of his friend on the next crucifix. There may be some who read this blog that might say, with some justice, that I don’t always follow his advice either, but, generally speaking, I think it’s still good. Still, when you’re in the midst of a plague being used by the forces of darkness to destroy a governmental system “conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all [people] are created equal”, it’s hard not to “swear and curse”. But, looking on the bright side, there seems to be a better than even chance that we’ll beat the genius at the polls in November (assuming we’re allowed to vote) and take the Senate, and after that there’s a chance that progressives in Congress will force a reluctant President Biden to do what needs to be done.
End of rant. At least for the moment, I’m looking on the bright side.
