Monday Stuff


 


David Doel tells us about MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle’s and her most recent cluelessness on a Biden remark about “Scranton and Park Avenue,” which of course is a dumbed-down framing anyway because most voters have short attention spans and Biden knows it...sorry if that’s unkind, but it’s true (rich lives matter, to paraphrase Ruhle...as I and others smarter than I have said, the real “bias” in this country is over ratings and money, not ideology...this whole “conservative vs. liberal” shouting match ends up putting $$ in the pockets of the one percent, who no doubt are laughing their metaphorical asses off over this nonsense...the one percent definitely includes Comcast, who tell Ruhle and everyone else at that network how and when to dance as far as I'm concerned)...



...and turning to Biden’s opposition, this news report tells us about this life form named Norbert Logsdon, a Trump supporter who assaulted a teenaged girl with a flagpole (here); I have to admit that I’m a little irritated by the “both sides-ism” here... I don’t see any Biden supporters reaching into cars and attacking young girls, to say nothing of showing profane messages in public; if there is, present evidence and make the case - don’t just throw out lazy innuendo...



...and keeping with Our Orange Pestilence, nice fake-out by Thom H. in the beginning here about newspapers calling on Clinton to resign – sync is still off (there’s a link to iwillvote at this site in the right column under Check Your Voter Status, by the way)...



...and John and Francesca remind us once more about the Gropenfuhrer not caring about anybody getting COVID besides him (”even the mannequins would need consent” – good one)...



...and turning to 45’s enablers, Farron Cousins reminds us that Sen. Mr. Elaine Chao continues to stand in the way of COVID-19 relief, including this (I wouldn’t be so quick to give up on Amy McGrath, though I’ll admit that it’s an uphill fight for her for sure...looks like Cousins had some kind of a carpal tunnel procedure – hope everything went OK)...



...and Kyle tells us about a mom who went to Tennessee to get health care for her kids and now faces a maximum of 27 years in prison for it (what country am I living in again?)...



...and Minot, ND city councilwoman Carrie Evans is my latest hero (heroine?) for this...



...and I’m actually trying to find ways to expand the variety of musical selections here, and in so doing I happened to come upon this number – hope this gives you a bit of a jump to begin the week.
