I can't explain why I keep watching Fareed Zakaria when he manages to piss me off each and every week. There must be a deep masochistic flaw in my psyche. This week's outrage? The United States is "a miracle" of peace and stability. Yeah, right.
This is quite a series of tweets by our Idiot In Chief
Do you notice we are not having a gun debate right now? That's because they used knives and a truck!
The carrying of most types of Knives is already banned in the UK. So are guns.
Have you been keeping up with the Maxine Waters & Michael Tracey confrontation?
No, I am not referring to the terrorist attack in London that has a death toll of seven people and is dominating the news cycle. Nor am I referring to the suicide bomb that was set off outside a concert venue in Manchester. No, I'm referring to the one in Kabul, Afghanistan.
Last week I pointed out that the Manchester terrorist has actually been an MI6 intelligence asset in Libya.
is it complete?
The success of the corporate oligarchy is evident all around us.... from a “for profit corporation in chief” to his cabinet that owns as much as half the citizens in the country. Like it or not (aware or not) we are subservient to the oligarchs. Remember the fellow hauled off the airplane last month? How about the corporate mercenaries attack against the water protectors at Standing Rock? Or, what about our helplessness as we use our own tax money to finance corporate wars for fossil fuels?
Flashpoint: a spark which initiates an explosion.
First time I went to Las Vegas, me and a college friend drove down there from Olympia, WA on the way to Oklahoma City via Palm Springs, CA (but I've never been to Spain). I remember we decided to stand around and study the craps tables for awhile until we figured out how to play. After deciding we had learned enough to lose money, we placed our bets. Two bucks, on red. The dealer took a quick look at our bets and plainly stated, "no action".
Two bucks, no action.
Candia, New Hampshire includes the villages of Candia, Candia Four Corners and East Candia. Total population is less than 4,000.
Thursday night, the School Board hosted a hearing to gather public input on its transgender policy. The hearing was forced by a warrant article approved 518-335 at this year's town meeting.
If you liked the most recent Iraq war, you'll absolutely love war with Iran.
Make no mistake, war with Iran will be an epic disaster. A Napoleon invading Russia in 1812 level of catastrophe.
But facts and reality has never been enough to change Donald Trump's mind.
Trump has loaded his cabinet of trusted advisers with anti-Iran warhawks.
When I was young most towns, villages, suburbs and such had "the repair guy"; a little shop with gaskets and parts for most household appliances and gadgets, vacuum tubes and a tube checker, refurbished small appliances for sale, and a Mr. Fixit type guy. When soemthing broke you took it to him to have it fixed unless you could fix it yourself. Even if you could, you might wind up at his place to get the parts that you couldn't get from the dealer, depatment store or hardware sore.
The recent rantings of hateful Hillary have lead me to conclude: she is delusional; she thinks she is the president; and everybody left her down.
Sounds like the ravings of a previous monster, nein? Because of this similarity, I was going to title this: "Adolph Hillary schläft im Führer Bunker". But since I did want to draw the ire of mimi and lotlizard, I avoided that title.
UPDATE: I just wanted to apologize for my cranky ranting and commenting. I wasn't even capable to
read aside from write or thinking. BAD NIGHTMARES. But it helped to kill the time. Thank you for sticking it out with me.
and you guys and gals all take a break, shut down the internet, go fishing, take a deep breath and the come back next week or next month and ... fight like hell....
Europe is beginning to toy with the idea of Universal Basic Income, and boy is it controversial.
About a month ago I explained that "we must unite to defend health insurance legislation that is “the craziest thing in the world”, and that sometimes "catches fire", that its premiums rise more than 20 percent on average every year, that is in a "death spiral", and that is vanishing in large parts of America."
