For a little window of time, I could actually stand to see and hear what politicians were saying without the urge to barf.
It ended a while ago. I'm not sure what the threshold was but yea, it's like it used to be... it reminds me of my high school principal's blathering over the PA at us.

But I'm an eternal optimist. The fact that for a little while I heard people talking in ways that make sense tells me ... maybe... the life form is still there... (no, not going into what in my opinion made sense. How was your bike ride today?)
