I'm a political reporter and I absolutely love my job. I get to cover people that without a doubt sometimes break the barriers of believability just by opening their mouths. The 'foot-in-mouth' & 'head-up-their-arse' routines never cease to amaze me. I'm not saying that there are not those whose public service is quite credible and noteworthy, there are. It's just that politics seems to bring out the worst in some folk and the fringe elements that leave average people shaking their heads. Oh and this applies globally, not just here in the U. S. where I reside.

These days, with so much economic turmoil and a government that is for the most part paralyzed by "buy your political" ideology, this was exemplified by a wonder piece on ABCNews last night that highlighted several Republican members of both houses of Congress that are obstructing legislative efforts. The funny part was that they were even voting against legislation that they had agreed to or in several instances sponsored.

So it's with great pleasure I present this bit of comic relief followed by a "map" of the United States as "prayed for" by the former Alaska governor Sarah Palin and a host of 600 that gathered over the weekend for the National Tea party convention:
