She's at 7% and rising. Doesn't that sound familiar? About the same time people started to realize the game was rigged and they were going to have to either vote for Clinton or find a third party to vote for, Stein's numbers started to rise.
Like Wile E. Coyote going off the Dover Cliffs, anti-immigrant blather and the MOE made the destruction of the UK Tory party inevitable but can Labour and the left capitalize on this continuing devolutionary chaos.
well the title says it all. Enjoy. Americans wrote it. Just saying...
The (American) Idiot’s Guide to Brexit
Well, idiots seem to grow like weed. It can make you high and take over the vegetable beds. I don't know if I like the article, but then I read all sorts of things and get happily ever more idiotically dumb. Sigh.
oh well, I am still not over it. So, I ran into this and found it worth to look at, just for "a reality check", though the whole thing is fictional. Hmm, may be it's just hard to not be able anymore to believe in a "European Dream", I have long given up to believe in the "American Dream". I guess we all need to stop dreaming. What a pity. The realities are so sobering. Like Fuck that Shit kind of sobering.
After watching the joke of a Democratic corporate/statist platform last night I have decided to abandon the Democratic Party as a hopeless case. Its time to build a socialist alternative. For those who suffered through last nights Democrat Party platform fiasco, I offer the Socialist Alternative platform as an alternative. I see no reason to continue paying attention to Trumpoclintonian narcissisum and corporate/state cluster fuck.
I missed the first half and this is from memory as my coffee brews. TPP and $15 and hour came earlier so I missed it. Please feel free to correct mistakes or add names and events I may have forgotten.
Hank Paulson, ex CEO of Goldman Sachs and Republican Sec. of Treasury during the 2008 financial crisis has endorsed Hillary Clinton. He seems comfortable that Hillary will in fact cut social programs.

DEMOCRATS APPROVED PLATFORM DRAFT WITH SANDERS' IMPRINT

I don't believe in the prison. I don't care who it is that people want to put in there. Richard Reid. Richard Cheney. Richard Speck. I don't care. Because what happens in the prison, should happen to no human being. Or any other living creature.
Many words, they have been written against the prison. Yet the prison still stands. This is not fathomable to me. But, I know, the prison, it will not stand, always.
Dannie Martin, he wrote many wise and powerful words, against the prison. Words that were truth. Drawn from his own experience and observation. While interned in the prison.
In the summer of 1986, Martin was 46, in the sixth year of a 33-year sentence for bank robbery. He was locked away in the federal penitentiary at Lompoc. He had spent 21 years in various reform schools, jails, camps, prisons, and chain-gangs. He was the son of California Central Valley migrant workers—a "hillbilly." While still a pre-pube, he liked his liquor; later, he liked his heroin. Which is for why he robbed the banks. He was a reader—Shakespeare, Schopenhauer, Robertson Davies, Larry McMurtry, the New Yorker. And he was a writer. And, when he moved, that year, to write about the prison, the prison, it moved to snuff him out.
