With about a week to go

You come after the fruitfly, you’d better be ready.  From the always vocal and former Bush-supporter Christopher Hitchens, comes this gem:

“This is what the Republican Party has done to us this year: It has placed within reach of the Oval Office a woman who is a religious fanatic and a proud, boastful ignoramus.  Those who despise science and learning are not anti-elitist.  They are morally and intellectually slothful people who are secretly envious of the educated and the cultured.  And those who prate of spiritual warfare and demons are not just ‘people of faith’ but theocratic bullies.  On Nov. 4, anyone who cares for the Constitution has a clear duty to repudiate this wickedness and stupidity.”

Also, it’s been reported that it is snowing in Madison, Wisconsin. I don’t have a window office — this, despite the fact that when I started here four years ago my boss assured me it would be a matter of days until I would be able to see outside — so I cannot confirm.
