Wednesday Stuff

Well, I got one right anyway – congratulations to Kevin Strouse, and thanks to both Allyson Schwartz and Shaughnessy Naughton for their class in pledging their support to their party’s respective nominees (not quite sure how good Tom Wolf is at slinging back the mud that surely will come his way from Corbett and his pals, but we're about to find out).

Now, Strouse goes on to fight Mikey the Beloved in the fall (and please, for God’s sake, dispense with campaign ads like this one...sorry, but "happy touchy feely" doesn't work for yours truly)…



...actually, this is MUCH better - sorry I didn't show it sooner...



…and drat that tree-hugging Obama and his Bureau of Land Management (the same bunch trying to enforce the rule of law against wingnut welfare recipient Cliven Bundy) for trying to protect our environment and create jobs (removing my tongue from my cheek)…



…and here is an update to Robert Greenwald’s fine documentary “Koch Brothers Exposed” (Keith Olbermann's Special Comment about Citizens United looks more and more prophetic, unfortunately)…



…and I would have liked to see Alan Grayson, Pete DeFazio (a veteran) and Joe Crowley named to the BENGHAZI!!! circus instead (here), but I think these are good choices, particularly Rep. Cummings (part of me wants to see the Dems sit this out, but unfortunately, the cable news channels have a bigger squawk box than just about any other blogger out there, and for the Dems not to provide some kind of push back could be fatal from an electoral perspective)…



Update 5/22/14: And if this is true, than Steny Hoyer is more pathetic than I ever imagined.

…and happy belated 70th birthday to Joe Cocker (among other things, probably the greatest Ray Charles-cover artist of all time...yeah, isn't it great when a divey little bar magically turns into a high-gloss '80s music video?).
