Ebola was a horrible emergency, so the GOP response was to ban travel, arrest and hold travelers to this country, and to harass and embarrass medical workers who did their best to stop the pandemic.

With a few exceptions, the Democratic response, led by President Obama, was to work with other countries, apply the best science and medicine, and eventually stop the spread of this killer disease.

It feels good.

Ok, I still have inter-tube access, and Apple TV, which is great with movies and films. And they have a surprising number of TV shows that I enjoy, and even good news. (CNN, Reuters, NBC ((with MSNBC one-two hours after bored cast) and others)

And because Honey loves local sports, we are pitching in for a digital antenna. Chicago's signals are so strong,that we will get everything else we need. And she gets to see some of the games.

I've been trying to keep track of Clinton's appearances of late and came to two conclusions.

1. He really is not the same man. His choice of words, his mannerisms, even his demeanor aren't what they used to be.

2. The media is studiously ignoring or refusing to comment on it.

In an AOL article, the purported topic was his inability to deal with current technology, but the real gem was right there to be read:

It really does a great job of covering Billery Clintons.

The Yang part of the equation is reportedly having billy goat tantrums because the Yin boss (Huma) is limiting his access to his worse half, especially when he calls to bitch about poor decisions by Hill's top aides. Like Huma.

Do we call it Saloon?

For those folks blindly, almost religiously devoted to a horribly flawed, graft, grift, and grime based democratic candidate, should we call it Our Daily Cross?

If we all want to succeed and Win Win Win like Trumps promises us to, should we not rename this place caucus1percent?

Usually, some cable or boredcast news program is on in the background in my office. Originally I had planned to do a scathing review of the state of the state of the state of journalism in our state. For example, Blitz Wolfer was talking to some legal official about the charges being brought against Trumps campaign mangler, Corey Lewd'n'nasty. The official clearly stated, "Charges have been brought but the Defendant has not been arrested."

A conservative radio station had the opportunity to spend 10 minutes with Teh Don. I never heard of the radio host, but Charlie Sykes actually did a decent job. He was prepared, he followed up, and he asked questions to which people really want answers from him.

"Congrats on the birth of your grandchild."

When our country was grappling with the scourge that was slavery, we held a party. For reasons unknown, this very uncivil event was misnamed the Civil War, at least by the Yankees. To the loser south, they called it The War Between the States.

One sorry result of our (very un)Civil War was the rapid, widespread growth of a group that named itself after the sound of a firearm being loaded, Ku Klux Klan. Its first appearance was in the late 1860s and slowly petered out to something much smaller by 1890. It was violent, it targeted black leaders, it targeted Republicans. At that time, the GOP was the party of Lincoln. It was liberal, empathic, caring, anti-slavery, pro-worker, and pro humanity, as we might describe it now.
