I was wrong.

clever ideaI read this headline and figured some hippie named their kid “Civility.” Then that kid grew up to work (the irony!) at MSNBC: ‘Liberal TV Host Rachel Maddow Works for Civility.’   But sadly, I was wrong.

I thought Europe would keep drifting toward anti-semitism.  I may have been wrong; at least, this walkout is a signal that there are some limits to it.

I thought the Obama administration would go out of their way to help poor children, especially poor black children, get a good education.  I was wrong.

I thought the Obama administration and the Democratic Congress would pass legislation legalizing illegal aliens and opening the border wide – shamnesty beyond John McCain’s wildest dreams.  I was wrong; they’re evidently skipping all the pesky legal stuff and going straight for the shamnesty.

I thought I couldn’t be more pleased about the Tea Party Protests.  But after seeing this headline, I have to admit – I was wrong.  h/t Insty

I indulged in a rant against Meghan McCain because she’s a vacuous twit.  I still think I was correct, but wrong in execution.  Plus, I really don’t care that much if she does help take the GOP down.  The GOP was once a third party which ultimately beat out the Whigs.  If the GOP becomes a party for which conservatives cannot vote, then sooner or later a third party will rise from the ashes.  Like a phoenix!  Or not.  Bottom line: when half the electorate is stupid enough to elect Obama, and when the Democrats open the borders wide and create 20 million new Democratic voters, the GOP’s record idiocy is a moot point.  This isn’t going to be recoverable until people get a belly full of consequences.  At that point it’ll be “anybody but a Democrat” and devil take the hindmost in that stampede.

I thought Andrew Sullivan couldn’t beclown himself further.  I was wrong.  He’s evidently determined to give Glenn “Socky” Greenwald a run for his money.

In my quest to reduce expenses because we’re going Galt, I thought I’d never find an easy and cheap yogurt recipe.  Way wrong.  This crock pot yogurt was so easy even I couldn’t mess it up.  When the yogurt was finished, I drained it to about sour cream thickness.  Genius that I am, I don’t have any good fruit in the house, but I added a bit of Splenda and a little vanilla extract (which thinned it out some, but it was well-drained and very thick to start with) and it was excellent.  Since it freezes well, I’ll be making this on a regular basis.

So to sum up: I’m wrong, wrong, wrong.
