Well, we all have to go sometimes. It's actually better for the Democrats' legislative hopes; a long incapacitation would've prevented them from getting a replacement. I hope that doesn't sound too cold but, I've seen a lot of politics in my young life. No man is thought of as indispensable for long. Life moves on - fast.

Welcome To My Haven

I know there's other ways to share what you read but, I wanted a blog about it. Someone might be interested in all the crazy things I'm reading around the world.
