Resurrected Poem
Submitted by Robyn on Sun, 05/08/2016 - 1:37pmYesterday I was reminded on the Book of Faces of a poem I wrote six years ago. It does a great job of capturing the aura of recent events, so I thought I should maybe share it again.

I missed this two months ago, but it's worth repeating even if some of you previously came across it.
During Maine's Democratic Party Convention an amendment was submitted to the rules that would change the way super delegate votes are distributed.
The new rule, which passed to by a voice vote and chants of Bernie!Bernie! also included a call for other states to do the same in the conventions that follow.
This could be a BIG DEAL...
Lee Camp has presented some very compelling evidence that there has been massive, systemic fraud committed in this year's Democratic primary elections to deliver votes to Hillary Clinton and deny them to Bernie Sanders. By the very same metrics used by the US government itself to gauge the integrity of elections in foreign countries, these primaries have been revealed as exercises in cynical and criminal manipulation designed to create the illusion of voter consensus favoring Clinton, irregardless of voters' actual preference. And naturally the corporate media has done everything in its power to assist in this fraud.

As if you're not disgusted enough with the Democratic Party, the weasel Ed Rendell just doubled-down on pissing off half of their voting base:
Let's pick a serious topic and guess what would be the first thing that Teh Donald would think of in response. Put into words what his honest answer would be if asked a question. For example,
SCIENCE
Q: What is the Big Bang?
A: Have you seen my daughter Ivanka?
Q: What is Quantum Mechanics?
A: They are the jerks who screwed up the tuning on my Rolls. Gonna sue those jerks.

Lately I've been looking into installing solar panels.
My house faces east, with the peak of the roof running east-west so I have a pretty good stretch of roof that is south-facing. However my neighbour to the south has a pretty tall maple tree -- at least as tall as my house -- so I'm not sure whether that would affect efficiency. A similar tree on the neighbour's property behind me might block any southwest-facing panels.
Welcome to Sunday Brunch. This is an open thread so grab a seat and let us know what is new you.
