So, would a dictator really be so bad?

The End May Be Here In 32 Days! Let's try to look at November 5, 2024 as the end of a democracy or the beginning of a Trump/Vance disaster. Let's pause and try to be adults about this. Practically none of us has ever lived under a dictatorship before and I, for one, have no idea what it will be like. Maybe the "big guy" will finally loosen up and treat us okay. Maybe he will be so happy to finally get his long awaited crown and scepter that he will be nice guy. Maybe? It could happen. He might be a completely different guy as a real dictator. After all, he's only "played" a dictator - he's never really been one before.   We need to give him some time to get into the job. He might have to learn a few "on the job" secrets. I'm betting he's never really jailed an Attorney General before. He probably hasn't even exported a group of immigrants before - much less two million. And what about jailing all of his political enemies? I bet

Oh, lies and crimes. . . where are thy punishments?

  Let's just take one  example - out of hundreds- that comes out of the mouths of MAGA/Republicans: JD Vance : " Murders are up by 81% because of what Kamala Harris has allowed to happen in Springfield." Daniel Driscoll, Republican Prosecutor in Springfield: "During the time that I've been with the office, 21 years now, we have not had any murders involving the Haitian community." V ance's retort to a different lie he told during the debate was, "I didn't think you were going to fact check me." America, what in the hell are we doing to ourselves?  Why are we allowing this crap to misinform the most uninformed of us? Why are we letting member of the MAGA/Republican Cult to tell the voters that "they are to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears." As in the case of Trump's attempt to overturn the 2020 election, the Special Counsel Jack Smith has new, solid evidence that solidly shows that Trump "resorted to crimes that

Maybe his next rally will be held in jail. . .

  The Truth about Trump the Arsonist "The wheels of justice turns slow, but they does turn," said the elderly gentlemen from Alabama. Last night brought an excited group of MSNBC hosts to inform us that there is brand-spankin' new evidence about Trump's attempt to overturn the presidential election of 2020.  Jack Smith, Special Counsel for the United States Department of Justice since 2022, just revealed new and exciting evidence about Trump's conversations - and attempts - to get Vice-President Mike Pence to declare the Electoral College's vote results null and void ! Contrary to what has been told to the public, Trump was forcefully involved and guilty up to his double-chin in the threats made against Pence to kill the election results and use the "fake electorate's fake sheets" to announce Trump the winner, instead of Biden! Never in our history had this ever happened because never in our history have we ever had a man like Trump in the Oval O

T he way this new Primary Election ballot in Montana will work sounds simple enough, and I'm hearing a lot of ornery grousing about it from the Republican/MAGA folks? With the "Red Tsunami" last election, you'd think it would be like they are about to land in a big field of four-lead clover. Of course. the have been known to use "reverse psychology" on us to confuse us - more than we already are. The driver in this new concept is "Political Party." The plan is to move the four top vote-getters - not from each Party - but just the "Top four winners" of the Primary election.   As each issue is tallied for vote count, the top four will advance to the General Election - regardless of political persuasion. Supposedly, we won't know what they are until the top four high votes are selected.  I'm guessing a lot of us won't know until we're told what Party is theirs. That is supposed to be the beauty of "Open Primaries."

The Elephant in the Room. . .

  The Elephant in the Room We've all heard about the elephant in the room that seem to suck up all of the oxygen and steal every decibel of sound with the incoheren t and rambling dialog of nonsense he has to offer.  He is that elephant in the room. Worse yet, he now announces that there are two of them!  Good grief! They are the epitome of self-righteous arrogance by the sewage truck-load.  When we appear on stage, we best have our "stupid signage" ready to hold up and "shine" like an elementary school class at the Christmas program. We are the ones who look like dorky little kids in our little red caps. We chose to let our bodies and minds do things that will humiliate and haunt us for the rest of our lives.  We stand behind the "big dumb guy" and at the back of the stage. We are the cheerleaders for the uninformed and in need of being noticed. When they lie, we cheer and chant "Make America Great Again." When they lie again, we laugh and

The Deadliest Duo!

Donald Trump and JD Vance Traitors to their Country Literally the entire informed world is keenly aware of these two "politicians" who think they should be America's next President and Vice-President.  They are but two misfits, crying in the wilderness and assuming there is a horde of like-minded traitors standing behind them. It is a pitiful sight. They are oblivious to the snickers and head-shaking going on at their back as they skip through the graveyard  with nary a care in the world. Trump and Vance trip over their own words as they try to cover up mistakes made in the past. They are both causing great consternation among their supporters as they keep altering their beliefs - or possible beliefs - on a near-daily basis. As an example, Vance recently once said, "No abortions! They are to stop NOW!"  Last night, however, during his debate, he seems to have backed off a little. His partner takes great pride in being the one who changed the Supreme Court's

Enter the "Twilight Zone" at your own risk. . .

Imagine, if you will. . .  You are staring at your empty ballot and the time is drawing near. Two candidates are holding you up. You don't know whether to pick Trump or Harris. Just then, two men  approached your front door, one man holding a "rule of law" book in his hands and the other with a book tucked under his arm titled "Project 2025." Both men will attempt to sell you on their idea for America.  The one with the "Project 2025" book looks like the image we have of "The Anti-Christ." He's a snappy dresser, fast-talker, plastic smile on his face, and the book is only open to page one. You'll notice all of the pages are glued together, too. What he is about to sell you isn't what you'll want. His sales pitch is the old "bait and switch" scheme. He'll explain that what it may look like is just not what it really is. He wants us to buy it after he explains what it is.  Only then will it be exposed as "I a

Weird ain't the half of it!

  WEIRD JD VANCE There is a possibly-white, probably-male, of standard height and weight, speaking good English, and as near as we can tell, is of normal intelligence, and will be in a debate tonight with Tim Walz for Vice President of the United States of America.  If anyone watched MSNBC last night, they would have seen the true meaning of not only the pure, unvarnished definition of  "Weird" but - much worse - a showman who firmly believes that America MUST drop our democracy and submit to his own belief that we are meant to become a full-fledged, mean-as-hell dictatorship. There is no question about why we should do this - he has all of those answered - and then some. Again, I repeat, this is a  debate for the office of theUnited States of America! After listening to him last night, it seems to me he believes we are overdue for the white, ultra-right-wing, and richest in  this nation to be handed the reins of power. It is disturbing and scary. It is as right-wing as anyth

Older than Dirt, Dumber than a Fence Post, and Poorer than a Dirt Farmer

65 YEARS A GREEN BAY PACKER FAN   I'm older than dirt, I'm dumber than a fence post, I'm poorer than a dirt farmer, but I have always had the Green Bay Packers to make me smile.  I've also had television networks that brought me their games. Whether it was Sunday, Sunday Night, Monday Night or Thursday Night. . . there they were, and all I had to do was turned on the television with my remote. But, our supreme television gods have bestowed upon us a much better idea. They have contracted with heretofore unheard of networks such as: Peacock, Hulu, ESPN+, WuHo, Sassafras, WhoNu, JabberBox, and TinkerBell, to name a few.  My Spectrum Silver Package was promised to be their very best bundle. We took a second mortgage on our house and went for it!   Now, that's just no longer good enough. Our family and friends tell us to disconnect that damn Spectrum and get these strange little boxes that will give you oodles of channels. . . at oodles of charges. Our question was: &qu
