An Open Letter to Ambassador Schieffer
From SanAntonio Express-News:
Dear Ambassador Schieffer,
You "get" to be a Lottery Winner. You "get" to be prom king. You might even "get" to be an Ambassador.
But no one, perhaps with the exception of Rick '39%' Perry, "gets" to be Governor of Texas.
No, that's something you've gotta earn.
Enjoy making money,
MR
“And also remind people that this is not going to be easy. It's going to be really hard. And if they want to do that, I get to be governor. And if they don't want ot [sic] do that, I can go make money, and I've done my civic duty of trying to lay it out.”

Nice post, Rach.
I particularly enjoy reading (and writing, when I can) observations that are focused, telling and dead-on. This is one of those.
Game. Set. Match,

Wow. This sense of entitlement that seems to be re-appearing amongst politicians really makes me want to [not] vote for them.
