Things can only get better

It's been a busy week on Little Hunting Creek, my hometown...I had hoped not to have to say this, but I am very, very disappointed in Massachusetts. As my dad always says, just because a guy looks good, doesn't mean he'll be a good husband..I mean...Senator. Yes, he is hot, crazy Massachusetts voters, but I thought you were better than those crazy California voters who voted for Arnold. At least Arnold is married to a Democrat.
I'm also disappointed in Arlen Spector. Yes, Arlen, I too have wanted to tell Michelle Bachmann to be quiet many times myself,(usually my children lead me away from the TV and tell me to remember my blood pressure) but it is inappropriate for you to tell her to "act like a lady". If that means what I think it means, you just told her to sit down, shut up and let the men talk. And didn't you learn anything from the whole Anita Hill debacle?
Or is it that we can't teach an old dog new tricks?
In my experience, when we act like "ladies", that means we are quiet, submissive and let the older, wiser men do everything for us, because they know best.
Sorry, Senator Spector, there are no ladies here any more.
