Because I am pretty sure that is one of the final signs of the impending apocalypse.
Seriously though, wtf kind of world are we living in where Progressives actually have to make allies out of asshole republicans?

Sen. Bernie Sanders is still talking like a guy who's running for president. But frustrated House Democrats — who booed him at one point during a morning meeting — say it's time to stop.
I had not run across this particular story before today. Not that it is particularly unique or significant, but it does illustrates a point I offered for consideration a few days ago.

As we all saw on the 5th, the FBI seemed to also fall under the Clinton Voodoo spells and while Comey did deliver some well deserved Snark regarding Killary's bad judgment and incompetence as SoS, they did not recommend an indictment in the e-mails case.
However, there is still the investigation into the bad things she did regarding gathering money for her Clinton Foundation from other nations while being SoS.

A few weeks back there was a lot of talk about how the DNC and the Clinton campaign were still campaigning like it's 1999. This is a common human tendency, and it reminded me of a branch of mathematics called "catastrophe theory." I was hoping that I would get some further insight into how the math might apply to the election, but nothing has come up, so I'm just going to describe the mathematics and see if anyone has a good idea how to apply it.
