Auspicious Beginnings

'Tis a brave new world, friends.

The Democrats control the House, and possibly the Senate.

And Donald Rumsfeld has resigned.

And Britney Spears is divorcing Kevin Federline.

Bush and Britney have dropped their losers like the respective bad habits they are. But it looks like Britney will have the bigger fight, because K-Fed wants the children ... and spousal support. Because buying him a record company wasn't enough. I can't say that I'm surprised.

I consider it a good omen that these things all happened on practically the same day. The world feels just a little righter.

Updated to add:

I have been outblogged again. Dooce sums up my feelings about all this perfectly.

Very Intersting, like much of the world you have more comments on Brittany Spears than the change in government. Love, Dad

You know, I really thought that couple would last forever. Rumsfeld and Bush, that is. Hurrah!
