mostly TV, teeny bit of politics

The good news: They brought Krispy Kremes in this morning, and I had two.
The bad news: They brought Krispy Kremes in this morning, and I had two.
I haven't talked about TV in awhile (for me), so that's what I'm going to do. List format, because it helps me stay focused. Ha ha.

Not to start a whole political thing in my LJ, but I'm just curious as I haven't formed an opinion yet ... my brother said: "Also, in an apology for his ranting and raving in Iowa, Dean said, 'I was leading with my heart, not my mind.' Well, yeah... and that's why he shouldn't be president." Intellectually, I see the merits of what he's saying ... at the same time, shouldn't heart factor into it somewhere? But politicians, like lawyers, cannot be emotional -- they wouldn't be able to do their jobs properly. Then again, would the world be a better place if, using those examples again, politicians and lawyers did act upon the prompting of their hearts rather than their minds? (Not that none of them do ... I'm talking v. generally, and possibly inaccurately ... but I just keep fluctuating from one school of thought to another.)
