it is what it is,
except when it isn’t, no. 2
Yesterday I heard that some journalists (okay, maybe just one) are saying things like this about The Lorax: “The President’s liberal friends in Hollywood [are] targeting a younger demographic using animated movies to sell their agenda to children.”
Really?
I know Dr. Seuss did have some political leanings and statements in his work and all, but, really?
And then I went to the grocery store and bought myself some tulips. They didn’t have pink, which was what I wanted, so I picked these instead.
The woman checking me out said, “We call these Fighting Irish tulips, because of the colors.”
Really?
Silly me.
I just thought they were pretty.

“It is what it is” was a saying we heard everywhere we went in Maui, made me think it was an island thing!
I think spin doctors can take ANYTHING and twist it into something completely different. But fortunately, beauty is beauty is beauty 🙂

as if we don’t have enough trouble just listening to what they ARE saying, now we are sujected to the deep hidden sutle messages in a Dr Seuss book. good grief!

Beauty appears fragile, but she is tenacious in times such as this. Poets are that way too.

It was your subconscious urge to make a political statement. 😉

I think we can all join hands and -_- together because REALLY? The President is bringing children on board through the medium of animation? Alright then.
