Progressives (Liberals)

When trump withdraws i'd think about backing you.

damned straight.

I'll be singin this old Rufus Thomas tune:




Translated to chinese, the name of the tune is "wokkin the dog."

While we're here tellin stories, and all, I might as well post this one, from my favorite story-teller, eh?

Whistling in the dark???

I suspect the hopelessness on the left is a thing of their own making that began some time ago. The several dramatic acts in their continuing, but failed, efforts to destroy Trump have left them with the recent awareness that they have wasted precious time, and now approach the election with (1) no record of legislative achievement; (2) no viable platform to offer the voting public; (3) virtually no internal unity among still ardent Bernie supporters, the crazy Green New Deal activists and the feckless party Legislative leaders still, in the grip of TDS, unable to address the issues facing the country; and (4) a dotty, corrupt lifetime politician of no notable achievement as a Presidential candidate.

The initial enthusiasm among Democrats for the failed Bloomberg candidacy was an indicator. Biden's win in South Carolina and the short period during which he accumulated additional wins in State primaries, provided a brief intermission from the gloom. However more public exposure to Biden's dotty confusion and lack of situational awareness soon ended that.

Now hacks such as the quoted Jeef Heer are trying far too hard to make a virtue out of necessity by claiming that ole Joe represents a return to normalcy under a "generic Democrat". We're hardly in normal times now. Biden is merely a tired, corrupt relic with no leadership potential at all. More to the point, the voting public is keenly aware of all of this.

It is sad to see Blatham reduced to offering this crap as a strategic insight of some sort.

Yeah, that's kinda what I thought too, George. Except I wouldn't say "sad," as sorry as it is. I would say "predictable."

These cheese-eaters, to a man, have a uncanny ability to ignore all facts and stand reality on it's head in their minds. Whatever they want to be true must be true. They aint exactly quick learners, know what I'm sayin?

Nancy Pelosi's last minute holdup of urgently needed legislation to include unrelated tokens of the Green New Deal and a few payoffs for favored organizations like the Construction Trade Unions was a sad and almost laughable example. (Her husband owns a very large Construction company) .

Pelosi no doubt sees herself as a shrewd operator and a political sophisticate, but she just comes across as completely sophomoric most of the time.

If she was half as smart as she seems think she is, she would realize that everyone else in the world isn't stupid enough to be persuaded by her sophistry. or misled by her attempts at misdirection. She just insults the intelligence of the average voter.

Hey! Look at me! I just tore up Trump's speech. I''m sure you'll vote for me now, eh!?

Pelosir: "Walls are immoral!"



Well, maybe not when they're surrounding my mansion, but, still....

Here's a political cartoon from back when the Democrats were still holding up the legislation:

Tucking this away in a text document for later...

Please don't Praise Chomsky. He's a piece of **** and doesn't deserve it. What next? How devoted Michael Moore is to Patriotism?

Indeed he is. And we're all shocked. Even though he tweeted this morning about how good the ratings are for his press briefings. We're still shocked. So unlike a narcissistic sociopath.

Sho nuff

With so many young families isolated at home and now faced with the burden of keeping their children engaged in worthwhile activities and learning hour after hour and day after day, one very positive outcome we can expect is a renewed appreciation of what teachers do every day. That will be a blessing.

I suspect you need a twitter to watch this graph. But give it a try. Just to get an idea of how fucked up Trump's people have been in the covid pandemic.

Yes. I agree with most everything they say. Think of something specific either if them said that you don’t like.

I think I speak for everyone when I say Chompsky chews the chubby one, eh?

As devoted as Thomas Paine. (I'm not even a fan of the fat guy.)

You and Moore happen to define "patriotism" in different ways.

Wait! So, you’re leaving my Chompsky Seminar? I’m not sure I can authorize your departure.
