6 months on the beach


A quote from today’s Cary Tennis column on Salon.com:
But you know, sometimes when I see someone I would like to help I wish I had a lot of money and a mansion on the beach somewhere far away I could send them to. I would say here, what you need is six months on the beach.
Maybe everybody needs six months on the beach. I wonder if President Obama has thought of that: six months on the beach for every angry Republican. Make them stay there under the trees eating coconuts. See how long their anger lasts. I'll bet they could not keep it up for six months. I don't think they have it in them. It would melt away and then we all could move on.
The question is: Are there enough beaches?

There are some excellent articles about how and why the Republican party is shooting itself in the foot, ones you can find yourself but they are a dying breed (or shall we say misbreed?). To me it is completely understandable. But the nice part is, these kind of people can be stereotyped as hating the beach. You know, in general and counting the millions of the hard-core ones, not the nice moderates. Nice prescription but it won't happen...
