Brokeback Polling


Folks can rest easy this morning after Good Ole Boy, Daniel Ortega, secured victory in the 2006 Nicaraguan elections.


Jeb Bush, George. W's brother and Governor of Texas, will be kicking back on the porch secure in the idea that he's made a friend for life by taking out ads in the Nicaraguan press linking the Sandinista's with international terrorism and threatening their coffee subsidies.

Yup, an' his old daddy - who used to work down at the CIA when them Contra folks got guns from Iran so they could set fire to villages and run cocaine cartels - must be feelin' mighty proud.

Heh, Fidel! break out em' franks 'n' beans.

Very readable blog, Madame.
There is a fair amount of clever sarcasm in the blogworld, anchored, unfortunately in ill-informed provincialism. There is also a fair amount of highly educated opinion, completely concealed beneath pedantic prose. You, my amazingly resurrected Red Guardette (excuse the latent sexism, but how often does one get an opportunity to use that phrase?) have kept the ledger on the positive side (no doubt, in accord with the new Chinese imperative towards economic success) to an admirable extent.
I shall, indeed, make the Long March back to your blog in the future.
