How Ironic!

So first episode back after the death of John Spencer is the vp debates. Media hype is that McGurry isn't going to get moped up by the republican vp. The more the Josh and his gang try to work with Leo the worst it looks to the point Josh calls Toby's cell phone and they have a dule conversation. They pick up their agrueing where they left off 6 weeks earlier. Josh feeling uncomfortable for not call Toby while he's going through the inditement. Toby making him feel worst and say what did you call for. Josh "I put Leo in a no win situation.
he's going to fail on national tv and it's all my fault."
TOBY--I don't think Leo accepted the nomination for vp
wait a minute you were in new york for this did you watch it? Let me know if I need to finsh this for you.

Wing's Back!

Great episode . . . here's the details (sorry no photos)

The post debate campaign is ramping up and hot new issues appear out of nowhere in true West Wing form.

It's Saturday morning at the White House. CJ has come in to help President Bartlett's daughter with wedding details but has to leave as she was getting started to hear about a new international crisis. It seems that an oil deal between one of the Russian republics and China has gone bad. Russia and China are squaring off and China is beginning to mass troops at the border.

Meanwhile, Congressman Santos, has his own firestorm to deal with. He is scheduled to speak at the black church in LA. On Friday night a 12 year old black boy was fatally shot by a latino LAPD officer. The boy had stolen a car and had a gun that "looked" real. Speaking at the church n now was a no win political situation, but they are committed so he has to show. The question is what does a Latino candidate for president say.

Josh puts in a request with CJ for Bartlett to cover, but it's too short of notice. While in DC, Josh calls in on Tody at his apartment. The two have words and ultimately Tody tells Josh that Santos doesn't have what it takes to deal with the tough issues and make the tough decisions.

Sunday morning, the speach is delivered to Santos who promptly puts it in the trash can. He doesn't know what to say yet, but knows it must come from the heart. He arrives at the church to a polite but chilly welcome.

It's awkward as he takes the pulpit. He begins to speak. He says his prayers are with the family of the 12 year old boy . . . and with the officer and his family, not because the officer has experienced a loss but because of the pain and heavy burden he has. He says he thinks about what happened and wants to place blame. Was it the kid's fault for stealing the car? Was it the kid's parents fault? Why couldn't the officer waited one more second? His heart filled with rage. He recalled Dr. King's plea for more compassion. He acknowledged that it had been a long time and still the streets are not safe, that people were tired of waiting (now he was beginning to connect as heads began to nod) . He finished the speach be appealing to everyone the need for more compassion, that it was the only way to make progress as slow as it would be. As he finished his speach and left the church, he had faced the tough issue with leadership and everyone felt good about it.

We are ...No Wings due to a Magic special on TV

We are ...However......... a special report on North Korea. Really have compassion for the folks in North Korea. So many people live under oppression.

On Extreme make over,,,,, a father lost his arm while fishing for lobster for his family. So they built his family a house and his two daughters. Were great kids. The seven year old,,,,wants to save the rain forest and so they made her room the rain forest. The teen daughter loved to dance so she got a dance studio in her basement.

She loved polk-a-dots so they had weird Al sing to her and made her think her room was going to be all about poka...he was playing
his acoridan and she was like what is this?? then was surpirse that all her furniture in her room was round including her bed and all her piillows on her bed were round and it was in all pastels it was really pretty.

The seven year old wanted a safe boat for her dad so for her birthday, she got the safe boat for her dad.

I love that show. We need more shows like this one. There is plenty of people who want to do good in the world. They resotre my faith in mankind and womankind. So I thought you'd enjoy a narriative of that show since wings will be back next week.

Love ya

We are ...The great debate was not all that great!

After plugging the tv into the car and watching wing by candle light due to windstorm. (we are dedicated to serving your west wing needs) the debate was very anti-climatic.
They went around and around on education. and I felt the whole thing was a chance for the writer to have a field day to write into the script what they would want to have the country due.

Vinnik said that head start did not work. So get rid of it. Santos head start works needs some fine tuning. Santos charter schools so parents can choose. Vinnik against education programs that take away education moeny from public schools.

The whole show was rather dry I thought. The whole show was the debate with viewers to vote who won the debate. It was a draw in my opinion. Vinnik had good points and so did Santos.
Santos had an idea to offer medicare to the entire nation because it is more effective and cost effectient that most hmos. Which I fine hard to believe. Get ya an up date from this week. It should be better. Adam was sick this weekend. So hopefully we'll get better info to you.
