Drones Meeting: Saturday, June 27, 2009

We talked about: Do economic advances result in social decline? Are political indications positive for Republicans? Is there a common human reaction to dictators? Is there a federal law prohibiting states from redrawing their boundaries?

Not related to this particular day, but I would like to note that I warned fellow drones (and particularly the king) about Sarah Palin numerous times. No doubt that Evan will take a position similar to that of Bill Kristol:

"If Palin wants to run in 2012, why not do exactly what she announced today? It's an enormous gamble - but it could be a shrewd one.

After all, she's freeing herself from the duties of the governorship. Now she can do her book, give speeches, travel the country and the world, campaign for others, meet people, get more educated on the issues - and without being criticized for neglecting her duties in Alaska. I suppose she'll take a hit for leaving the governorship early - but how much of one? She's probably accomplished most of what she was going to get done as governor, and is leaving a sympatico lieutenant governor in charge.

And haven't conservatives been lamenting the lack of a national leader? Well, now she'll try to be that. She may not succeed. Everything rests on her talents, and on her performance. She'll be under intense and hostile scrutiny, and she'll have to perform well."

That being said, the prophets always spoke truth to the kings in Israel for a reason I suppose.

So in this illustration you are the prophet?

I am both the prophet in this illustration and in the club (remember). Incidentally, the Times of London reports that Sarah Palin has stated that she is not running for president because she is "fed up with politics".
