This wrinkle in time, I can’t give it no credit*

It’s raining out, I’ve got a nagging headache, and I’m wearing a scarf in the library. Granted, it’s a fashion-y sort of inside scarf, but it’s still a scarf. I’m spending a nice little break looking up New York bakeries on yelp.

I had to post because I just read something on CNN and it made me burst out with a weird bullet-laugh. Politics by turns enthrall and frustrate me, and I love when parties resort to schoolyard kind of tactics. Yeah, I’m talking to you, Mr “I’ll just take my ball and go home then” McCain. What made me laugh was this quote from Chuck Schumer – calling out McCain on his non-vital role in the whole Wall Street Re-do going on in Congress at the moment:

McCain announced the suspension of his campaign shortly after their conversation, Obama said, adding that both campaigns still were working on the joint statement.

Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-New York, said McCain’s move was “just weird.”

“We haven’t heard hide nor hair of Sen. McCain in these negotiations,” said Schumer, chairman of the Senate Banking Committee. “He has not been involved except for an occasional, unhelpful statement, sort of thrown from far away, and the last thing we need in these delicate negotiations is an injection of presidential politics.”

And with that, I’m gone. See you in 7 days, Seattle!
