Too Many Changes to Count

WOW! So many changes in the state and country this week. Deval Patrick won! Lots of us are going to be counting on him!

The Dems took control of the House and the Senate, Rumsfeld resigned and Gates will take over.

Hard to imagine what things will be like on Capitol Hill come February 07. I do hope that somehow they will be able to work put a productive and sane solution to the quagmire in iraq and will deal with iran and No Korea in more promising ways in the yea rot come. It did bother me today tho to hear that El Qaeda released a tape gloating and boasting that Rumsfeld has been chased out of Iraq. Our democracy and the logic behind changes here, the voice of the "people" etc is hard to grasp for people who have never known a system where changes can happen thru things like votes, I guess. It juts bugs me that the working of our system seem to empower them in disturbing ways.
