This is pretty cool…

Well…yeah, I’m running really late today but I have an excuse…did two bike rides and spent 6 hours painting the last awning today…what a pain with all of the detail…oh, the pretty cool thing…after RBG’s death Friday night, the dems have raised over 135 million dollars from small donors across this country to put toward defeating the cheating, hypocrite repubs who have vowed to fill RGB’s seat before the election. One of the names being mentioned is a woman who thinks that being a lawyer and a judge is just a means to and end…to do god’s will here on Earth…can you guess how she’ll vote on a woman’s right to choose? Let’s make this really, really clear…to everyone who has health insurance because of Obamacare, it is gone after this seat on the SC is stolen…to every woman who thinks the government has no right to control what you do with your body…that is gone after this seat is stolen….to everyone who thinks that legalized religious discrimination is wrong…that will be allowed after this seat is stolen…to everyone who thinks that voting rights are important to this democracy…they’re gone too after this seat is stolen. So, at this point, the only thing we can do is get out and vote these assholes out…and then spend the next 4 years undoing all the damage they’ve done….vote, vote, vote….it’s all we have left…

The media can’t do math….

Well…I really do wonder if most of the media are just stupid or if they are getting paid off to push the repub candidates. Just today, Andrea Mitchell went on her show to tout the fact that the dementia suffering trump raised 45 million dollars in the last quarter of 2019 and that it is more than any dem candidate and the dems are in trouble…yadda yadda…first…apple and damn oranges Andrea…trump is raising money for the general election while the dems are raising it for the primary season but, lets do some math and lump all of the dems together and see what the results are…with just the three that have reported so far, the dems have raised over 77 million dollars and that is without either Biden or Warren included…and their number should be close to 25 million each so, again, do we need to give the media a math lesson? Which is larger, dementia sufferer trump’s 45 million or 77 million+50 million? I’ll give you a guess but just one…yep, you got it…127 million is larger than 45 million but it seems that the media doesn’t get it. I think it’s just more of the “horserace” bullshit that the media has to push to keep the right wingers happy and continue to get access to the repubs…and that’s it….this isn’t a damn horserace, it’s the future of our country and the future of truth in our country…media, quit this bullshit and report dementia trump’s fundraising as anemic as it is….something like “dems smash trump in fundraising” would do it….and the bonus? It’s the truth so it’s a two-fer….geez….

The real reason for trump on tv…

Well….now we know the real reason for the grifter in chief to go on tv last night with another one of his racist screeds…money…nothing but money…and not for the wall but to fill the coffers of his campaign. Just before he went on, his campaign blasted out an e-mail to his followers telling them they will get on trump’s “nice” list if they send money to a “wall” fund that will allow trump and his cronies to continue to “fight” for the wall…and right after they sent out another e-mail saying there was still time to get on the list and contribute to the “wall” fund if they do it right now. We all know that if the idiot is speaking he is lying…and in the fine print it is revealed that the money is not going to any “wall” fund, but straight into idiot boy’s re-election fund…so now he’s even lying to his base so he can scam more money out of them with the one issue he still has left that mobilizes them…the stupid wall that will never be built. I wonder how he will spin it when the repubs abandon him and pass government funding without the wall? should be fun to watch…impeach…

Mitt’s just such an easy target…

Well…I know you may be getting tired of all of the focus here on ole Mitt, but he is just so darn tone deaf about everything that I just have to keep hitting these hanging curveballs. The latest bit of idiocy from his campaign just points up the crony capitalism that is part and parcel of the circles he runs in and should disqualify him from the presidency if only for his stupidity. The latest, if you haven’t heard, is his fundraiser that is being put on in London in a couple of weeks…and who is it being put on by? The chairs of this event are all involved with the interest rate fixing scandal that just cost Barclays bank (headed by one of Romneys supporters) 450 million dollars in fines…and these folks include at least three other bank executives that are also involved in the scandal….one of them being Barclays chief lobbyist in Washington. So, these are the type of people that Romney is “pallin’ around with” and who are trying to buy Romney the election so they can steal even more money by their unethical behavior. Is this the kind of America we want…one where the banks can steal with the blessing of the president? I sure don’t…but if anyone votes for Romney, that is exactly the America we’ll get….geez….
