U War, Round 2: the Russkie Blintzkrieg.

U War, Round 2: the Russkie Blintzkrieg.

WHEN DOES PUTIN BECOME PUTZ-IN? The Russo-Ukraine War of 2022, Week 2: Round 1, the blitz, went to Ukraine, which stymied Putin’s grab. Round 2, crippling international sanctions crashed the Ruble and isolated Russia’s economy, combined with more Russ force being brought to bear against Ukraine–including artillery & missile attacks on cities, appears to being resolving in Ukraine favor. Lighting war is bogged down. A blitzkrieg’s become a blintz-kreig. Why? Clue 1: where the hell is the Russian air force?…

The U War Roundup, 3/3/22

The U War Roundup, 3/3/22

As of 3/3/22 the U-for-Ukraine War looks like this: A) Russia’s ‘Desert Sabre’ style blitz into Ukraine has failed. The Russki army is bogged down. Ukraine is resisting harder than anyone expected. B) The West (including Japan, Korea, etc.) have imposed economic sanctions that cripple the Russian economy. However, Petro and Natural Gas imports not totally cut off. C) The Russian Army has switched tactics, back to its tried-and-true basics: slow and brutal. Line up the artillery wheel-to-wheel, obliterate everything…

BAD NEWS, GOOD NEWS, BETTER NEWS

BAD NEWS, GOOD NEWS, BETTER NEWS

(Not so fast, hoser!)                 What a difference a week makes. Last Monday I was ready to write all about bad news: Canada had gone fascist; Russia had maybe kicked off the Next World War by grabbing the Ukraine. Now there’s bad news, good news, and maybe even better news.                 CANADA:                 BAD NEWS: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked a State of Emergency, turned police on the very peaceful demonstrators, lied about ‘swastika wavers’ to justify the crackdown, and…

ABOUT FACE!

ABOUT FACE!

That was fast! A whole Establishment turns on a dime! Quicker than a tuxedo-lad chorus line in a 1930s Busby Berkley musical, a whole nation of Democratic leaders have totally about-faced on Covid mandates. Let’s see now.. From Politico: “Democrats are making a U-turn on mask mandates, just in time for the midterms. It’s happening among the party’s governors, several of whom are easing up their masking rules as Covid’s Omicron wave fades. And it’s happening on the Hill, where…

KITCHEN TABLE ECONOMICS: INTRO

KITCHEN TABLE ECONOMICS: INTRO

            What do you and Jerome Powell—Chairman of the Federal Reserve– have in common? Simple: you both understand economics! The most learned and famous professor and the average American can both grasp the basic, simple truth of economic law.

ROCK’N’ROLL LEFT AND DIE

ROCK’N’ROLL LEFT AND DIE

            “Old man take a look at my life.” Aged, 77-year-old rebel Neil Young goes full-on church lady, gets the vapors about a new young troublemaker, and demands the punk be fired. Or he’ll take his classic cookies and go home. Spotify says “don’t let the doorknob hit ya.” Across the room, ole Miz Joni Mitchell creaks up out of her ortho pillow, puts down her Geritol spritzer and warbles “me too-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo.” (“Sometimes it’s a thin line between Joni and…
