Monday Stuff
(By the way, I have some updates to this post about Bri-Fi and the Humane Society signs, and my Senate contests post is here, and to help Heidi Heitkamp, who needs our help, click here.)
I’d love to gloat over this, but Sen. Mr. Elaine Chao is way too cagey to NOT be playing some kind of a game by saying this typical nonsense…namely, that the Dems shouldn’t investigate the Gropenfuhrer because, gosh, McConnell is just SO WORRIED about how the Democrats will make out this year and in 2020…uh huh, sure – Farron Cousins explains…
…and when it comes to being branded a “troublemaker” or part of a “mob” (here and here), Francis Maxwell reminds us about MLK Jr., Rosa Parks, and many others who wore that mantle bravely (but let’s get it straight with Almost Silent Clarence Thomas – “harassment,” bad as it is, isn’t “assault”)…
..and Kyle K. of Secular Talk tells us that our corporate media, of course, ignored the New York Times story on all of Trump’s tax fraud…I know Kyle thinks the Russia story is a nothing-burger, you might say, but I think he’s wrong…NSFW – and praise “the old gray lady” for the tax coverage, but pan them for paying yet MORE attention to Trump voters in red America…how many of these damn stories are they going to publish (here)?
Oh, but we MUST write about Trump voters or else, if we blow them off, they'll claim that the li-bu-ruul media refuses to understand them so OF COURSE they end up voting for Trump. News flash: THEY'RE NOT GOING TO VOTE FOR A DEM ANYWAY!
And by the way, Kyle, you DEFINITELY don’t have “a rinky-dink show”…
...and Cole Porter died 54 years ago today, believe it or not – I’m kind of in the mood for a show tune, so I give you this with Seth MacFarlane doing the Sinatra part and Curtis Stigers doing the Der Bingle part (if you ever get the opportunity to see it, “De-Lovely” with Kevin Kline and Ashley Judd is a GREAT biopic).
