Well…the media is going crazy since desantis said something the other day…in an interview over the weekend, ole ron said that the idiot trump lost the 2020 election and that Joe Biden was the legitimate president…then he went on to say that all of the conspiracy theories that the right spouts have been proven wrong…and the media has now started to push the idea that this is a “new” ron…one who is willing to tell the “truth”…but my question is: who cares? Ole ron has been lying his ass off since the 2020 election and has toed the line of the crazies in the repub party until now…and he is furiously trying to walk back these comments by trying to say the election “was not run good” but the result are the results and we “have to” live with it…but we won’t have to live with ronnie since his campaign is going down in flames as measured by crowd size as he stumps in Iowa where less than a dozen people came out to listen to him prattle on about nothing…he couldn’t even get people to come out in NH where he offered free beer…so, let’s just ignore ole ronnie from now on and let him scuttle back and continue to ruin Florida…geez…

I’m a Bernie fan, too…
Well…as I said yesterday, I think I’ll do a series on the good candidates, not the idiot trump…okay, after 3 years I still can’t understand why any one would vote for idiot boy…but, Bernie I could…since I first became aware of Bernie quite a few years back, his outspoken unabashed liberalism where he understands that government needs to be the referee between people and business is just what I have always said…even though I used to be quite conservative when I was younger and did believe that the less government “interference” the better… in my personal life experience where I have been discriminated against just because I was old, and couldn’t find a real job from the time I was axed from Steelcase in my late 40′s until I gave up and retired…it made me realize even more that people need to have the power equation balanced by government to give everyone a fair shake….and that is one of the central ideas of Bernie’s campaign, that the playing field needs to be leveled and the rich and corporations need to be forced to play fair since they won’t do it without the government getting involved. I can get behind that since I’m tired of the rich getting everything they want and leeching everything out of our society and leaving nothing but crumbs for the rest of us…again, I will get behind any of our candidates because any of them are light years ahead of idiot boy….and we won’t see them getting installed by a foreign power and destroying our country bit by bit every day….
Mark Chelgren, repub sooper genius…
Well….you gotta hand it to the repubs, they never miss a chance to try to enact unconstitutional laws across this country, and now we have another repub sooper genius trying it in Iowa. Mark Chelgren, sooper genius, has just introduced an unconstitutional bill that would require universities in Iowa to “balance” the political affiliation of professors and would force the state to use…hmmm….what’s the phrase? Oh, affirmative action, to make sure that white repub professors would be given preference in hiring until there is essentially an equal number of repubs and dems in the ranks. Now, I wonder why there are more dem professors than republicans…could it be that dems believe in science and the scientific method, and think that objective facts are what should be taught and not opinions? Or could it be that dems value the idea of giving back to the society and that we have a duty to try to make it better instead of plundering and pillaging it for personal profit? I think the dems in Iowa should attack this law with the same derisive use of “affirmative action” that the repubs used to demonize any preference to help make society more equal….and turn it around on this idiot…this sooper genius….
It’s a tie in Iowa….
Well…not sure if you have been following the causcases in Iowa, but I’m pretty sure you’re as tired of it as I am…the cool result was that Bernie and Hillary basically tied with only two tenths of a point separating them and the policy that they stressed was what the dems wanted to hear…not like the right who are filled with crap and personal attacks that I am just tired of. I probably should mention that Ted Cruz won on the repub side with Trump being the first loser as he calls it and Rubio coming in third that he has been touting all day as a win…the delusion runs deep in this one. the one thing I want my side to remember is to not go overboard on that support…that when or if your candidate loses, we have to remember to support the other candidate on our side….to sit out to just spite the chosen candidate will hand the presidency to the repubs…and I’m not sure that damage will ever be repaired…look how long it took Obama to fix the mess left by ole GW…geez…
We have a new worst person in the world…
Well…as you know, there are times when someone does something so egregiously creepy or nasty that I have to comment on it by stealing Keith Olbermann’s “worst person in the world” schtick and now is one of those times. On Wednesday, Carly Fiorina took her already creepy behavior to a new low when she hijacked a bunch of 4 and 5 years olds who were visiting a botanical garden in Iowa to use as props for an anti abortion screed…yep, little kids that just wanted to look at plants were subjected to this child abuse by another repub asshole who is so stupid they think everyone would just love to have their kids used for an anti abortion photo op….now, if I were one of those parents, I would have filed a lawsuit for the many felonies that she has committed here…photographing children without parental consent is one of them….and I would say since the children were not allowed to leave for almost an hour, that would be kidnapping as well…just typical, typical repub behavior….real presidential….geez….
A little political stuff…
Well…there have been a few developments in politics in the past few days but I’m not sure if they have given me enough to do a whole one on each, so I guess I’ll just start and see what happens. On our side, it looks like the race is tightening in Iowa with the latest polls showing it to be close…not quite a dead heat but Bernie has been gaining…or, Hillary has been sliding back and now we see what is going to happen from the Hillary camp…they are now starting to attack Bernie and I had hoped that we would have stuck to the issues instead of the nastiness that flows from the right….but, I guess it’s politics and to be expected…especially when Hillary was the anointed one back in 08 and she lost that one, too…then we have the latest where Carly and Rand have been demoted to the “kiddie” table debate and ole Rand is throwing a hissy fit about it…saying that he won’t participate…basically saying that the rules don’t apply to him…just like every other repub when they don’t get their way…what a bunch of losers…geez….
I predicted this one….
Well…a few days ago, I expressed my hope that one of the outcomes of the Iowa repub nonsense would be that both Perry and Bachmann would just go home and we would never have to hear from them again…and I predicted that poor showings would have that result. I am happy to report here that ole Rick is heading back to Texas to “think” about his campaign…I don’t know what he is going to think about…can he even think? Or, will his donors and cronies do the thinking for him while he styles his hair? Then, ole Micheel has a news conference scheduled for this afternoon for a “major announcement” on the direction of her campaign…but the only direction I see for her is to head due north back where she came from….maybe we can hope that she will retire and go back to “un-gaying” gays in Minnesota. What a couple of know-nothing losers that even the delusional repubs have rejected as being unqualified…now, if we could just do the same for ole Newt and Santorum, the IQ of the entire party would rise about 50 points.
One last thing, I’m going to keep hammering on Mitt for the lies on job creation that he keeps spouting on the trail…the latest is that he “created” over 100K jobs while at Bain Capital…but he never nets that with the hundreds of thousands of jobs that he killed while stealing the assets of the companies that Bain purchased..so folks…you can tell when ole Mitt is lying about his jobs record…it’s when he opens his mouth…geez…
Maybe the Republicans are getting some sense….
Well…there is not much going on with politics but the Iowa nonsense with the repubs but I can’t believe that there is so much time and attention being expended on this weird, throwback of a process. When you do the math, the whole caucus there and all of the votes amount to less than one-half of one percent of the total electorate in the US and the winner comes out thinking that he or she is presidential material and has earned a mandate to continue. But that is not what this is about…this is supposed to be about the repubs getting some sense and abandoning the idiot Newt for the nonsense he has been spouting…now, ole Newt may be right at home in a Dickens novel, but he is certainly not presidential material and it looks like even the hard right that controls the elections in Iowa has wised up to that fact. Well…maybe I’m wrong that they’ve gotten smarter…since they have pushed Rick Santorum to second place in the polls and have even kept Ron Paul in the running…this could be fun to watch if you like slow-motion crashes….I know, not too lucid but I’m really trying so bear with me a while…if I don’t get better then abandon me…
An Independent judiciary…
Well… this is not the one I was thinking about earlier in the day but it is a topic that needs to have some light shone on it after the recall of three judges in Iowa this election. If you didn’t read, there were three judges that voted for equal protection under the law in ruling that gays and lesbians have the right to marry in Iowa. What the crazy right wingers are saying that judges should reflect the will of the people and because they are against it, the rights of gays and lesbians should be suppressed until they say it okay to grant them the same rights as the rest of us. The founders established the independent judiciary specifically as a counterbalance to popular opinion to ensure that the majority couldn’t repress other citizens…what’s next…when judges vote to protect minority rights will they be recalled? These are the same people that thought “separate but equal” was just fine and it took an independent judiciary to end segregation and the many other instances of discrimination that “popular opinion” thought was just great. Again…it just another instance where the righties are all for the constitution unless it goes against their ignorant opinions….geez…
