If you believe (as I do) that a gifted politician is one who has masterful skills in negotiation and compromise, then there are no gifted politicians in the GOP. There are only worthless assholes, creeps and dirtbags, some of whom are much worse than the others, but all of whom could be locked up in cells and never missed.
A 'bucket list' is roughly defined as a list of challenging activities one should attempt to accomplish before he dies. I thought awhile about my own bucket list, and came up with one goal.
During the first twenty years or so of my life, I had serious crushes on at least a dozen girls and young women. I ended up marrying one of them, and dated two others. The rest I adored quietly from afar, and they were generally unaware of my existence. I spent hours moping around, wishing I had the guts to reveal my feelings.
My bucket list goal is to compensate for all the hours I spent moping by telling as many of those ladies as possible how much I loved them when they were girls. I've had an opportunity to tell three so far, and their faces lit up like I'd made them very happy. In any event, it made me feel better.
