2. The most entertaining and interesting show in town (D.C.) is the Lucha Libre going on in the GeeOpie, Republican, or whatever other name you want.  The extremists do not have any best interests of the people of America at all - just their own selfish agenda, and they don't care who or what dies as they carry out their agenda.   September will be an interesting show:
