Anthony Vincent Gallo of Occupy Democrats brings us a video of Louisiana’s U.S. senatorial mistake Cornpone Kennedy trying to give U.S. Army Gen. Randy Manner a hard time over the latter’s praise of fellow Gen. Mark Milley for standing up to Cantaloupe Capone...like many of you I’m sure, I still have vivid memories of people all over our beloved commonwealth of PA who couldn’t wait to slap yellow “Support The Troops” ribbon decals on their vehicles in the runup to Dubya’s Not-So-Excellent Adventure in Iraq (leave it to #43 to invade the wrong country after the worst terrorist attack on our soil)...the reason I mention that is because, back then, you wouldn’t DARE imagine even questioning the military, but my, how the worm has turned (and yes, our military should get the benefit of the doubt because of their sacrifice, but they’re not infallible either, which Gen. Manner readily admits here, even though a certain Oxford transplant to the bayou thinks he knows it all...what a pitiable life form Kennedy is, and more proof is here)...
...and Jesse Dollemore lets us know here that CNN’s Scott Jennings is apparently happy that Daniel Penny is free, which means that Jennings believes that murder is OK, in the case of Jordan Neely anyway (more here - another lifetime ago when I rode the Philly subway a lot, one of the first things you learned was that you got up and moved to another seat or another spot on the El or a train if someone was acting nuts, and NEVER make eye contact...also, let a transit cop know what's going on)...and good for Garrison Hayes for talking to folks about Kamala Harris, even if the guy on the horse was an idiot...because of Trump, people like “horse guy” can just say straight up that someone who isn’t “cis” or binary should just get back in the damn closet where they belong; I’ll give you a little insight into something, and apologies if I’m repeating myself...earlier this year, we were able to take a really nice trip to London, and you know part of what we saw? Women wearing a hijab, and other women walking around holding hands, and a guy walking around St. James Park with his arm draped around the shoulder of another guy. And do you want to know what happened? Absolutely nothing, because NOBODY GAVE A SH*T BECAUSE EVERYBODY MINDED THEIR OWN DAMN BUSINESS, THAT’S WHAT!...Jesse also needs to be careful and say that this Luigi Mangione guy is the “alleged” killer of Brian Thompson, and I respectfully disagree with Jesse on the Hunter Biden pardon; I think that decision was mainly driven by the prospect of loopy Kash Patel potentially taking over this country’s most powerful law enforcement agency (and Patel making it pretty damn plain he would go after Biden Jr. for no good reason IMO), so I’m good with it (more here)...
Update: For everyone praising the Penny verdict, I just have the following question; what would your reaction be if Jordan Neely were white and Penny were black?
Take your time – I’ll wait.
...and I now give you the latest installment of “This Day In Doomsy History,” and this time we’re going to take a quick jaunt back a year ago to this clip from Chris Hayes listing the accomplishments of the Biden Administration (more here)...funny how you’re not hearing much about gas or the price of eggs now, isn’t it (and as I noted at the time, the baby formula shortage had more to do with a market monopoly of that that anything else as noted here)? Gee, it’s kind of like those yammering on constantly about that may not have been serious all along, and just wanted their guy to win, facts and logic be damned, huh? And yes, I’m never going to stop vilifying the @DNC for completely falling down on waging the messaging war; not saying that would have guaranteed a Harris/Walz victory, but at least they would have gone down with a fight (instead of all of this “weird” stuff and trying to make the campaign about “joy”...to be honest, when I heard about that, I had a feeling we were in trouble)...
...and Emma Vigeland of The Majority Report presents Ben Wikler talking with Jon Stewart, with Wikler trying to get the nod as DNC chairman (again, can’t find the words to communicate how useless of an organization that is as far as I’m concerned)...as Emma says, Wikler had a lot to do with fighting Hosni Mubarak Walker and Act 10 in Wisconsin, and just as importantly, Wikler definitely understands the importance of down-ballot races and their impact on a statewide level and how that can lead to awful stuff like supercharged gerrymandering (and yeah, I think Wikler understands the messaging issues faced by the DNC also, as Stewart mentions)...If Emma wants to criticize Biden and Di-Fi for geriatric deference (or whatever that was about the New Hampshire primary), fine, but I think bringing RBG into that discussion is a bit of a stretch...I didn’t know Jaime Harrison was a lobbyist before he ended up as DNC chair, but that sure fits his profile, and Tom Perez didn’t exactly light up the genius meter either...I’m not sure I agree with their criticism of Obama here, though I think it should be noted that #44 hasn’t done that well as a campaigner for other Dem pols, though I also believe that needs to be chalked up a bit to other people’s racism to be honest...
...and after having inflicted all of this verbosity in this post, I'll now shut up and present these seasonal selections.
