But seriously, I am wondering whether some of our environmental irresponsibility might have had any effects in causing or contributing to the multiple-hurricane phenomenon. Guess we won’t hear about it in any case – the global warming warnings have been silenced pretty well.<\/p>\n
The situation in Haiti is horrific. Haitians never<\/em> get a rest, it seems. Dafur continues without respite. North Korea and Iran have moved forward on their nuclear programs. Oh, never mind. The list is too daunting for me to reflect upon today. <\/p>\n I hope that I can bring myself to sit through these so-called "debates" – I for one would really like to see an actual<\/em> debate, or at least some real questioning. Many of these issues are too complex and important for this staging. Isn’t this just going to be a version of mini-campaigning? Short answer soundbites – this is what we’ve reduced this important occasion to now – the whole thing sickens me today.<\/p>\n I look at my son and his sweetness and love and intelligence, and wonder what we leave for him. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Count all the votes and I will lift the plague of hurricanes<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15,13,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-105","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-mommy-stuff","category-humor","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.virushead.net\/vhrandom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.virushead.net\/vhrandom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.virushead.net\/vhrandom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.virushead.net\/vhrandom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.virushead.net\/vhrandom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=105"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.virushead.net\/vhrandom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.virushead.net\/vhrandom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=105"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.virushead.net\/vhrandom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=105"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.virushead.net\/vhrandom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=105"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
