Photo of Joy Behar dressed as ‘beautiful African woman’ resurfaces

Okay, now we see how ‘firm’ in her commitment to call out and expose ‘racism’ Ms. Behar is. Or will she get away with that “beautiful black woman” excuse? See what happens when you go digging back into the past? SHE was the one to put her picture out there and she thought it was pretty cute. And it wasn’t that long ago that she displayed it on her show. Now let’s see what happens. I bet it just gets lost in the news cycle and she gets away with it.

Its my opinion that national politics has become hallucinogenic. The corporate media and the political elites do not discuss reality, but rather discuss manufactured nonsense. TPTB have realized that their fake liberal shtick just isn't playing in Peoria anymore. After Obama, people are "not going to get fooled again" by the likes of Harris or Booker or Biden. So, it seems that they decided to make democracy completely irrelevant by making the national political discourse insane.

Manafort is a tax dodging snake oil salesman, not 007. Or even Maxwell Smart.

Shadi Hamid wrote an article a few months back called Why the Center-Left Became Immoderate that really got me thinking. His first brilliant observation was pointing out that the "moderates" are also the most rabidly partisan.
This is the exact opposite of what the news media tries to sell us, and yet it is obvious.

The country has been turned over to the rich and gift wrapped and handed over to our ‘better’.
