I Promise...

If you watch the CNN Series of the Sixties and the Seventies...BTW, they are absolutely awesome!...you would find that all candy men and candy women pretty much say the same things...every single campaign...even way back then...

Kind of starts with, "I promise"...and then it gets lost in rhetoric...and then...we finally get a bloke who is out of the good old boy and girl political field...and lordy, he will say almost anything...and we get a bit unearthed...does he mean what he says?...

Is this the path of the new politics?...people that are not made out of the same cookie cutter?...it's not that Trump hasn't wanted the job...he started his feelers back in '88...part of the Ross Perot Reform Party...which fell flat on it's bloody ears...and realized to get it...he had to be part of the mainstream...had to be a Repub or Demo...

And here we go...the Repubs are shaking in their tree...they want a Prez...but at what cost?...their inner values would be stretched if it were the Donald at the top of the ticket...and if it be true, that he won't take their lobbyists moolah, how are they to control him?...it is, as one says, a sticky wicket...

So there you go...the people...and the countless polls have him up by at least 20 points...they keep trying to find one that doesn't...and if there is glitch...I'm not sure it's not coming from the Repubs, rather than the Demos, to point it out to the world...they want to find a trend that he is falling from the pedestal...just listen to the pundits who are trying to make Cruz and Rubio the real race...I mean, THE REAL RACE!...

To be absolutely fair about this...the other side has been tame...yes, I know the pundits are trying real hard to find issues between Bernie and Hilz...however, they are both on party lines...they stick to what that segment of the USA stands for...er, I think...and you could throw a blanket over the two and come out with one set of singular thoughts...which for every demo out there, is a good thing...I reckon...

OK, we are always trying to find the biggest and best stories of the year...most are of the real negative...who was killed..and by whom...think about our news sources...99% about what happened bad the day before...and now, the annual overview...it will be the top ten...bad things...mark my words...

In lieu of that...why can't we find the good things that our country has done?...the top 10 best and beautiful things?...I bet you can't even find ten things that the pixels, the web net, or the written word has even talked about...for the ENTIRE YEAR!...am I wrong?..

I suppose that is why I turn so much to the field of sports...where you can dwell on either side...the pos or the neg...pick a team and root...it will bring you elation...but shoot, don't waste your time about why your team lost...embrace the fact that it is good...

The moral of this blog today?...find something good to talk about...get into it...turn your frown upside down...you'll be surprised how the people around you will light up, too...

Happy Holidays...

He is alive and kicking...

Top of the morning, friends...as we embark on a shortish Cosmo trip (6+ hours) up north to see the kids. ..we try to see them every month or two....whatever works for us, and them...school has just started for them...and Cy has both football and soccer, he is playing...Cas, at 3, is still a wannabe... The distancing of trump with the public, was a bit weird, right?. ..he emerged and was talking the same...his appearance was a bit shaggy...he must have had the flu, or, well, Covid, or something...but, he is NOT DEAD....and still up to his shenanigans...same old...anything to bring up, to divert the people from hearing about the Epstein Files ...he unabashedly, called the whole thing a 'Democratic Hoax'... Hmmm...as 6 of the Survivors of it...(the Epstein Case) ...were talking, not only to the House....but, to the public, yesterday...as MTG was front and center with it...which, too, was odd...a fallout from trump?...or, a plant within the group?...no, trump, it is not a hoax.....

The Ignominy

So much for diplomacy ... the absolute embarrassment by the current President of the US...his actions in 'hosting' the Ukranian President Zelensky ... as it turned out, a highly visual representation of bullying by trump...the manners and methodology that he uses on people...aligned with his arse kissers, waiting their turn to take potshots at Zelenksy...all well orchestrated ...it was the ULTIMATE IGNOMINY of our country's 'leader'...unfortunately, for us, too...as somehow we are connected to that ogre...in reality, we are not... hoping the rest of the World can see that...here are samples of the headlines throughout that depict the sentiment of the slaughter... We are NOT aligned with Putin...WE ARE NOT!...trump is ...which begs a different query...how much longer can this idiocy go on?... I keep asking this...what does Putin have on trump, anyway...it must be a formidable foible... Talk to me, kids... This ploy of the orange...to actually simulate a firing squa...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
