Some observations, briefly

Some thoughts have been going through my mind lately,  bumping against each other so hard and so fast it's hard to keep them all straight. In no particular order, some of them are:


1 - People in Washington are now starting to ask “what did he know and when did he know it” about the now-fired National Security Advisor Michael Flynn. Given the track record of President Donald Trump, that could be a really hard question to answer.

2 - Is using a private server more a threat to national security than having a top-level political meeting with the head of a foreign nation at a table in a public restaurant while people around you are taking pictures and recording the conversation on their cell phones.

3 - When, oh when, are some Republicans going to say publicly what they are saying to each other privately about the direction our nation seems to be taking.

4 - Wouldn’t it have been better trying to get our new government up and running than running an endless twitter war against enemies, real or imagined, some of whom turn out to be friends just a few days later.

5 - Is anyone thinking about putting together a national budget. That would at least clarify what our national priorities really are.


6 - Will the first copy of the new Republican health care plan be put into the cornerstone of the new Wall along the Mexican border, to be opened in a hundred years as a historic document?
