Catch 22 on Sessions
So now that Sessions has perjured himself do the senators have to avoid calling him a liar because of this obscure rule about impugning the reputation of a fellow senator? If Senator Franken calls him a liar, will McConnell try to shut him up?
Give Trump Credit When He Gets Things Right?
Wow, health care is complicated, he says now, after bullshitting us for a year. Now a delay on the immigrant ban that was critical because of imminent danger so we can bask in his speech at congress. Where is it? When the Trump Administration gets a thing right it’s an accident. Nothing is thought through […]
About Trump – Written With Gravitas
In talking about Donald Trump I normally just string together a series of four letter words but I thought I would write something much longer with a bit more gravitas. The reason is twofold. First, I want to express my feelings about him and second, I know if it’s longer than 140 characters and has […]
The McCain Un-hearings
The much anticipated McCain hearing on Russian influence was a huge dud as a start to a new Senate. It accomplished absolutely nothing. It did show how smart the heads of their respective agencies are. But questions that should have been asked, weren’t. Did the Trump campaign know anything about the Russian hacking? How come […]
American Incubus
I wake up every morning into an American nightmare. I still have not turned on TV news programs since the election and I definitely have more time in my day as a result. I read the NY Times in the morning and if it’s not there, I don’t give a shit. I’ve had enough talking […]
Listen to What? Ignorance?
I am tired of hearing that we aren’t listening to the white people in the middle of our country and that we really need change. Yes we do need change. We democrats have been trying. But when working class voters overwhelmingly vote for republicans, against their own self interest and then continue to vote for […]
The Non-Partisan Argument
I know, rationally, that I shouldn’t be partisan, that I should tolerate other ideas and be open minded. But, heaven help me, that’s impossible with republicans. There are only two kinds of republicans: white, power hungry, blatantly selfish, short-sighted assholes and ignorant dopes. How does one compromise with that.Tolerate? No way, no f—– way. We […]
Dear Donald
Dear Donald How can you say the media is rigging the election? They are doing exactly what they did from the beginning (at least MSNBC News did). Only at the beginning, your nasty insults, chauvinism, xenophobia, misogyny etc. went over big with your bucket of deplorables (Hillary said half. I think a lot more than […]
More Rant on the Election Travesty
Having just listened to Morning Joe and the MSNBC talking heads ever so gentle admission that they were biased in the early days of the campaign, I was disgusted. They appeared to be deriding themselves, just a bit, in order to avoid the mantle of rigging the election given to them by Donald Trump, We […]
The 2016 Election Travesty
It appears that after all the negative influence the media, particularly the TV news (MSNBC, CNN, FOX etc.), has had on this election, the end result may be where it should have been from the beginning. At least I hope so. For a year and a half, we have been, and are still listening to […]
