Tuesday, moves us forward from a wild wicked weekend that brought Easter, snow in the midwest and northwest, floods and receding water,more weeks of winter, strange comments from Karzai about joining the Taliban, strange behavior from Republicans, specifically, RNC chair Steele but they all seem to be acting more right wing than usual along with the tea party group,  deaths in mines from not just the US but in China, children and suicide seem to be on the rise oh the list of things  going on the first week of April are many. The 7.2 earthquake shook and shook a lot of folks in Texi/Cali; 2 people died in Mexico and many more after shocks since… my relatives were shaken but nothing  substantial.  We must not forget Haiti, Chile and now the US may be in store for some earth changes and preparing more and more.

The Vatican needs to prepare for Americans to push for more transparency as well as accept their responsibility for what happened over the last 40years of child abuse; sex happens with consenting adults no one under 18 is considered an adult and even then the Church is wrong to hide cover up and refuse to accept they either have obstructed and are putting their group ahead of the children or could it be that this group of people actually practice this behavior; it’s accepted and people in the church now will say whatever to hide the truth.

The chambers of Congress are silent until April 12th and with that comes what could have been coverage of townhalls and or guest spots for Democrats to sell our new law of the land and beat back the noise of Republicans with the truth but … well, there are still a few more days left.  The president called out 2right wing nutters in an interview and cable went nuts trying to figure out if it was appropriate? Why are Politicians so willing to put their Political life before getting the Peoples work done.

Speaking of getting the peoples work done? People need to call Republicans Coburn and Kyl to force them into having compassion… to think about families who are affected by Yes to  blocking unemployment; it’s not just the potential hobo the partying person who loves living on what ? enough to pay for rent? the lapse affects those who need help with flood damages is hurting our economy in a big way and when checks don’t show up in Republican voter mailboxes of people out of work maybe politicians will feel it in the voting booth 2010/2012.
