I have had enough.   I have finally gotten to the point where I cannot stand it anymore.  Nancy Pelosi is a joke.  I have questions.  Many questions.  Like-  how does a woman like Pelosi make it this far in politics.  How does a person with no real understanding of the fundamental workings of practical life actually get to be Speaker of the House???

She is now speaking out as a believer and actually feels as if she is carrying out the will of God by making her policy against the will of a majority of the American people.  WHAT?!?!  How does she stay in power?  How is she  not run out of Washington.  The stuff that comes out of her mouth is almost as ridiculous as Hank Johnson, a U.S. Congressman,  who thought the island of Guam would tip over if more Marines were stationed there.   There is a video.

Get this– we are PAYING these people.  Really-  we give them our money to open their mouths and say this stuff.  There is nothing in the constitution that sets a literacy, competency or intelligence standard for serving in office.  We need to do a better  job of voting.  If these people ran a company, they would be fired.  Imagine the PR team that would need to follow them around.  Tom Cruise jumping on a couch has nothing on some of the stuff that comes out of our politician’s mouths.

Here is what has finally ticked me off to the point I had to publish this post, which has been sitting idle for 3 months:

According to CBSNews.com “House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) says she believes she must pursue public policies “in keeping with the values” of Jesus Christ, ”The Word made Flesh.”"

WHUT????

Seriously- I said what?!??

I have nothing more I can say about her except that she is a total ass clown.

Feel free to post comments and links on other stupid drivel that has come from her mouth.  I am sure the list is long and illustrious.

I closed my eyes last night and had a dream about black smoke.  The smoke came out of air vents and wrapped around the people in the hotel in my dream.  The smoke sounded like an electric snake and crackled with fire.  I scrambled to get into the basement.  I awoke-

I have never had a dream about something I had watched on TV.  It was a little strange.  The truth was that I was very restless last night.  My brain was processing the last year of LOST.  I could not shake the last episode.  The realization that I had just watched something that my brain could chew on for days or weeks was overwhelming.  I am still coming to terms with the details of the last season of one of the most original and interesting shows ever produced.

LOST-Hatch-Numbers

Each Character Showed Their Soul

The most important part of the last season is that it represents a way of dissecting characters that has never been done before.  The characters are able to live an entire season in a world that they construct.  Each person has died and meets again in a world that is created through their love for life, care for one another and their inability to move on.  They are truly LOST in purgatory.

Many other movies and shows will throw a few words on the screen to tell you how a character turns out years after the film is over-  Like the end of Animal House.  But LOST shows characters living in a world that they create after a life of regret, loss and love.  They are living in a metaphysical world.  Their purgatory gives them an opportunity to out live regrets, relive a life without regrets or just muddle through existence as they wait to connect with others.  All of it depends on their personality.

Desmond-  Obtains the highest level of approval from Penny’s father as his right hand man.

Sun and Jin-  Are in love and happy.  They turn their fear of her father to a shared struggle and not Jin’s burden  to bear as his assassin.

Jack-  Gains the approval of a son he never had.  He become the father his father never could be.

Sawyer-  Takes the struggle for the man that destroyed his life and makes a turn for the positive.  He explained it to Charlotte as a cross road- he had to choose and he chose to be a cop.

Hurley-  Used his money to be the greatest philanthropist of his time.  He took the curse of his money and turned it into good.

The list goes on and on.  Each character was allowed to take on the best dreams and the lessons learned from their life and live them in purgatory.

There is No Time

The key to all of this is not to get hung up on when everyone dies.  According to Jack’s father, there is no time in purgatory.  Purgatory is a world all of the characters needed to have in order to find one another.  It was a landing place for them to sort out their life on earth and come to terms with their relationships.  The connections were critical to moving on.  They needed to move on together.  Most of them anyway…

It is important to understand not everyone form the show needed to be at Jack’s church.  Linus was there, but decided he could not move on.  I can assume he is waiting for his daughter.  Michael is trapped on the island in order to pay for his sins and could not be at the church.  Notably- Richard Alpert was there- he found his end after hundreds of years of life.  Again-  the list can go on…

In the End

I do not believe there is a show that has provided such incredible room for interpretation and dissection.  I am very happy to have been a part of such a great show as a viewer.  The meandering, the  flashes and the suspension of disbelief have been tough at times and fun at others.  The bottom line is that LOST will be one of the most important shows ever to have been produced and the season finale will go down as one  of the most defined events in television history.  Great job guys!
