Just recently, a friend asked me an interesting question, and it really got me thinking. He asked me about the things I most wanted to be able to do with my time left here. For some background, we had already talked about what we were hoping for as a result…
We have to get it right, right the first time, and starting yesterday
Remember the following 4 states: Florida, Georgia, Iowa & Texas. You’ll understand why a little further down. In case you’re wondering, they total 89 electoral votes. For now, let me pose a question:
What do you suppose were the biggest mistakes the GOP and Trump made in 2020 that were…
It’s the kind of thing one would expect from privileged children who don’t get their way or have someone actually stand up to them
Check out this headline in an article in The Hill that greeted me on January 14th as I had my first cup of half-caf coffee to start the day:
GOP senator plans to introduce ‘Fauci Act’ after clash at hearing
I said to myself: “Self, is that what senators are supposed to be doing? What, there’s not a gazillion other things…
Spoiler: It wasn’t JUST that his lawyers met with the Fulton County DA’s office a few days earlier. They did nothing for him
Many may recall this rant by Trump less than a month ago, and possibly also recall thinking “now, what was THAT all about?” But in the vitriolic mosh pit that is Trump’s mind — and the underlying trigger for this particular rant — one can discern something a little more…
It was a very good question. It seems that the judiciary can appreciate the lack of action by one who creates a dangerous situation
The judge referred to Trump’s silence several times, apparently — and evidently never got meaningful input from defense counsel. Although it’s rather a spoiler, I’ll step right out there and answer the question in a summary fashion myself, then make an attempt to explain my conclusion.
Put very simply, out…
When you’re Right, you’re right — right?
Nothing says a New Year in America 2022 quite like continuing to believe in something for no valid reason. And wasn’t there something said about “believing six impossible things before breakfast” by the Queen in Alice Through the Looking Glass?
The fellow below makes a point, but I wondered if…
What if ego-driven politics, lies, and politicizing of masks and vaccines had not been the way chosen by the far-right?
As of early yesterday (1/2/22) we were at 825,819 dead from COVID in America. What if we had gotten to 75 percent of adult Americans completely vaccinated by June 1, 2021 — when it should have happened? What would things look like now, in early 2022?
Further below I take…
In the old land of baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and Chevrolet…some things simply would not happen
I’m certainly not the first person to notice or say it, but America is not what it used to be — and not in a good way.
For instance, note the image above. It is talking about how Americans will fight for freedom from oppression, tyranny, fascism — and in…
Hint: it ISN’T voting rights legislation, Antifa, BLM, CRT, the southern border, cancel culture, or civil rights redux
Do you agree with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) that Big Tech is the single greatest threat to free and fair elections?
Or do you think, as I do (and Mr. Schneider), that Sen. Cruz is doing what many Republicans are doing these days: trying to rewrite history, to change the…
Some recent nuggets that have made me rethink things
Do you remember from years ago a comedian named Jeff Foxworthy? His main standup schtick was “You might be a redneck if…” and then he came up with some of the greatest “ifs” one can imagine. He was hilarious.
I am not nearly as funny. But I have something similar…
