Oh boy, what a difference a day makes, huh? Not really. It just looks that way since we are always working from less than perfect information. Okay, I normally just incorporate the educational parts of my commentary in the whole. Kinda like burying the medicine in a spoonful of sugar, albeit snarky sugar. Today, I’m going to divide this post into three parts instead. I’ll start off with the political analysis and the second part will be the issues around … Continue reading “Biden Ousted by the Democrats: The Undoing of Democracy”
Will Biden Drop Out?
I don’t know and neither does anyone else. Look, in the last twenty-four hours there have been a lot of reports of Biden being ready to drop out, either by Monday or being in talks about what a withdrawal will look like. Zero of these come from on record sources and zero come from the Biden camp. They could be correct, or they could be hot air. As of this writing on 7/19/24 Noon CST, I suspect they are all … Continue reading “Will Biden Drop Out?”
Will Biden be Removed?
I really hate these clickbaity titles and I hate even more that they are probably the most correct to use right now. Short answer: yes, no, maybe. Long answer: panicky parties are impossible to predict. Panicky, incompetent parties even more so. So, it’s been a week and a half since the debate, has my opinion changed? Nah. Biden has again refused to step aside and no amount of ‘political pressure’ is gonna blast him out of the big chair. He … Continue reading “Will Biden be Removed?”
A Word on the Attempt on President Trump’s Life
A person was shot and killed and a second is in critical condition today. First and foremost, all our thoughts and prayers are with the victims of today’s assassination attempt. We also are grateful that President Trump was not seriously wounded and is doing well. We pray for him and his family as they recover from this assault. Tomorrow, we’ll worry about the political ramifications. Today, we grieve for the victims, those we know about and those we will be … Continue reading “A Word on the Attempt on President Trump’s Life”
Devastation! Biden Debate Meltdown
Well, that ought to be a clickbaity enough title. Sadly, it’s also true. I have GOT to stop overestimating Democrat competence. I expected Biden to perform poorly but no competent campaign would have let Biden within a thousand miles of that debate knowing he was in such poor condition. You’ll be hearing a lot about the Biden family wanting to fire staff. Well, I agree with them on at least one – that campaign manager should have already been fired. … Continue reading “Devastation! Biden Debate Meltdown”
Trump vs. Biden: Get Your Popcorn!
Today’s the day. 9 pm Eastern. Trump and Biden meet for their first debate in Atlanta. Biden and two CNN moderators versus Donald J. Trump in the political knockdown, drag out of the week! You can catch it on CNN or Fox. You can also wait for the follow up coverage all over social media. CNN isn’t allowing livestream reactions. Gee, wonder why? Yes, that’s dripping sarcasm. Sorry about your shoes. Try white vinegar, cleans sarcasm right up. Okay, here’s … Continue reading “Trump vs. Biden: Get Your Popcorn!”
Ten Ways to Tell if You are a Democrook
10) You think it’s perfectly okay to lie, cheat and even steal if it benefits the Democrats but if Republicans so much as jay walk, it’s proof that they are evil. 9) You believe that watching any news source besides MSNBC or NPR makes you a Russian spy – and you’re beginning to doubt CNN. 8) You are convinced that the only way to save democracy is to ensure that only people like you can vote. 7) You have bumper … Continue reading “Ten Ways to Tell if You are a Democrook”
Captured! Can NYC Save Itself?
If the public school systems had done their jobs, none of you would have clicked on that title because you’d already know the answer. Well, sit down kiddies and tighten those seat belts. Democratic Republicanism and how to actually use it coming warp speed at you right now! First off, the obvious. New York City is undeniably a captured polity. Polity is just fancy for the political entity and those affected – you know, pretty much everyone under the authority … Continue reading “Captured! Can NYC Save Itself?”
College Stupid
You have to be very intelligent to accomplish some levels of stupidity. You have to be seriously idiotic to keep doing it. The only thing the Ivy League currently lacks is the goose stepping. In order to prove how not racist (or how allied or whatever crazy thing they are calling it this week) these liberal, elitist, very, very white card carrying members of DAR are rioting on the oh so virtue signaling Ivy League campus’ in support of murderers … Continue reading “College Stupid”
There are NO RINOS or DINOS – Why Conspiracy Theories Do More Harm Than Good
Being a good little political scientist, I will start by defining my terms. Conspiracy Theory: Any supposition, hypothesis, theory or other firm conviction that is maintained despite any and all evidence or logic that might lead to a contrary conclusion. The astute among you will have noticed that by this definition, virtually anything can be a conspiracy theory. The really observant will have realized that the definition doesn’t care if the conviction is correct or not. It’s the irrational level … Continue reading “There are NO RINOS or DINOS – Why Conspiracy Theories Do More Harm Than Good”
