In the Sistine Chapel's "Creation of Adam"

Last edited Sun Oct 13, 2013, 09:51 PM - Edit history (2)

Michaelangelo painted god and Adam's index fingers almost touching. Human beings fill that space often. It is how creation myths work. Every explanation wants a home. So too this bullshit demonstration at veterans memorials today. The GOP wants the meme that Obama is being unfair to vets with the shutdown 'he caused' so he had to be run out of town as the tea partiers marched to the white house and symbolically dumped barricades at Obama's 'feet'. I call this 'taking the dog for a walk' where the bases delusions are excercised lest they notice their own culpability in keeping veterans from their monuments, as actually played out last week. A small gap between reality and wishfull thinking can be easily crossed in normal people. It is normal for people other than dyslexics and depressives to make the looser associations.
