DEBATE DOGS THE VEEP

DEBATE DOGS THE VEEP

Harris may have “blitzed Trump” but polls are showing the post-debate up-for-grabs voters are breaking for Trump. Harris had a chance to score a first impression as presidential candidate and she didn’t make the sale. She never answered a question, she didn’t positively outline any plans of hers, her visuals were terrible (the smirking, smug condescension was off-putting to men and women alike. This hurt Hillary 8 years ago, why repeat the mistake?) Trump is Trump, he’s thoroughly defined, nobody…

TWO PARTIES

TWO PARTIES

Comments 0 Comment

              Its September now. The 2024 Presidential contest is into the abbreviated arc of fall. After the historic and unprecedented stutter-step and pratfall of President Joe Biden and his replacement by VP Kamala Harris in an intra-party coup, the race is on. But the race between who? Yeah, Donald Trump v Harris, GOP vs Democrats. But who are these two parties, these two directions?  In all the shocks and hurricane-force events, one central development has been overlooked: the parties themselves…

              Every now and then you read about a recall of bad food. Some company’s product is discovered with botulism, contamination, rotted stuff canned or packaged. The company throws out all their stuff, cleans and purifies their plants, submits to state inspection and clean bills of health.  All the markets that bought the stuff purge their shelves and trash it.               That’s how you keep consumer confidence that what you’re selling isn’t poison garbage.               Except where it comes to…

NO CEASEFIRE WITH EVIL

NO CEASEFIRE WITH EVIL

Sometimes this is what it takes to defeat and destroy evil. A ‘ceasefire’ in 1944 would have allowed the National Socialists to stay in power, complete the Holocaust, and regroup to strike again. No ceasefire with Hamas. Stand with Israel. See it through with Israel.

          Remember the classic Bill Watterson comic strip Clavin and Hobbes and the immortal game of Calvinball? This joyous anarchic contest had only one rule: there were no rules. You made up laws as you went along, and the only limit was what you could imagine. So, what this have to do with current politics? Simple: the Democrats are playing legal Calvinball.               The latest round of Trump/GOP indictments are out. The Fulton County Georgia Grand…

WHOSE FREEDOM IS IT, ANYWAY?

WHOSE FREEDOM IS IT, ANYWAY?

Whose freedom is it, anyway?             The recent US Supreme Court decision 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis is out, and you’d think it was Dred Scott 2. The case is simple:             —303 Creative is a web design company, owned by Lorie Smith. Ms. Smith accepts all possible clients, but refuses to design sites for gay weddings, because she says it violates her Christian beliefs.             —Aubrey Elenis is the Director of the Colorado Civil Rights Division. The State of…

Ukraine Counteroffensive, Russians Blow Dam.

Ukraine Counteroffensive, Russians Blow Dam.

Comments 0 Comment

              June 6th, the 70th Anniversary of Day—and it’s looking like the long-awaited Ukraine Counteroffensive is beginning.               Exhibit A: the Russians have blown the Kakhova Dam. It’s like blowing up the Hoover Dam, if the Colorado ran through cities and farmland.               This is the Russian Way of War. It’s what they do, it’s what they are. Scorched Earth. If we can’t have it, nobody can. Yep, it’s an ecological and human disaster, to unleash floods all down the…
