BARREL OF MONKEYS: "GENESIS" in Reverse


I consider myself a Democrat. Been called a Socialist. Definitely a bleeding heart liberal.


As a child from a traditional southern family, playing Barrel of Monkeys on the floor, church every Sunday, doing well in public school, learning a trade; in every sense privileged .........


Comfortable in middle age, an avid news reader, on learning the tragic story of a full grown chimpanzee destroying the face of a woman who offered a toy, only trying to help it's owner coax her surrogate child back into his cage......


Today being confrontational, ribald, offensive, restless, rebellious.......


How did I get here from there?

How Bristol Palin Was Criticized on 'DWTS' Gallery - The Hollywood Reporter

How Bristol Palin Was Criticized on 'DWTS' Gallery - The Hollywood Reporter: "'She accepted the challenge. ...She's willing to put herself out there, and she's in the finals ...The left can't stand this, and her mother's TV show on TLC's getting higher ratings than any cable news network show. They can't stand it. And throughout all of this character assassination, throughout every attempt to destroy this family ...they're laughing, they're smiling, and they're having a good time. They're enjoying life as Alaskans and as Americans. It just ticks [the left] off to no end. And that's what makes it enjoyable,' Rush Limbaugh said on The Rush Limbaugh Show in support of Palin, seen here in the Oct. 11 episode when the season's nine remaining couples danced the Rumba or Argentine Tango in-the-round for the first time in the show's history."

I'm not sure I know what Rush is talking about.    I do remember some fussing that the Tea Party were organizing call-in-voting for Bristol Palin.  I can see why the left might fuss.  It would be unfair to the other celebrity dancers; left,  right or in between.  That's not character assassination.  Not for Bristol anyway from what I saw.  In fact, her monkey routine had me wondering if maybe an act of rebellion against her Mother's religious beliefs. 
"They're laughing, they're smiling, and they're having a good time."
Again I'm not sure what Rush is talking about. They all were!  The Tea Party ...remember....stayed home!
