The Art of Debating

Make that 'combative' debating...ah yes, the present day right and left arguments...our 2 party system in limbo...the base of it all...is the man sitting in the White House...who triggers passionate responses...from the ones who support him, and the others, who don't...

I get in the mix of it all...lost in the rhetoric of what is thrown my way...I fail at keeping my cool in the onslaught of the information, misguided as it may be...see?...I can't just sit and absorb the statements...smile, nod me head, and blurt out "you may be right"...knowing full well, there isn't any way in the world, that that is so...I have to respond...usually with incredulous looks on my face, while I retort...

Yes, the Horse gets an 'F' for lacking composure, and the art of the debate...

OK, let's go...Trump was on the stump (ha ha) in Montana, doing a good deed for a fellow (?) Republican there, caught up in a battle for a spot in Congress...Matt Rosendale, trying to unseat the incumbent, Demo Senator John Tester...alas, the speech went awry...as he got off point, apparently...and made it all about him....declaring to the crowd of his followers, "it's up to you, to make sure I'm not IMPEACHED!"...

Odd...simply odd...as who is talking that anyway?...the Democrats have been eerily silent when pressed into impeachment thoughts...right?...well, if he brings it up, then they may just add on...yup, the Senator that Trump so unpresidential like calls 'Pocahantas', Elizabeth Warren, from Massachusetts...has now INDEED brought that idea up...think she may have an axe to grind?...add her name to the list...

As the 'unnamed source' of the OP-ED is grinding away at Donny...asking for and demanding a role count as to whom is the 'rat'...some are saying that it's all made up...right...to his dismay, no one is taking ownership....so, he is asking that the New York Times come forward...reveal their source...'TREASON'...you know, they are not debating the content of the article...don't you find that highly questionable?...

Let's take a step back...and let the political world unfurl...today...and just see where the Tweets and the articles lead us...

Other...

The never ending Fed Ex T for the Pro Golfers is in phase 3 of their championship...lo and behold, the leaders after day 1?...Tiger and Rory, at -8...significant, as both of these blokes have had balky putters in the past year...yes, this is Tiger's best round, like forever...just for clarity, there are 3 rounds to go...and the weather is supposed to be dismal, today....watch out for scores at par...not the low ones as yesterday...

The Padres...finally brought up their prized 'prospect' that they got in the trade with Cleveland...for our closer, Brad Hand...Francisco Mejia...what did he do in his first start with SD?...hit TWO dingers...now that is an IMPACT!...this be done in Cincinnati...BTW, if the likes of many of the big boppers played their games there...they would hit 60 home runs, routinely, in that tiny park...

Speaking of the Cleveland Indians...they are doing the right thing...they are removing the 'Indian caricature' patch on their uniforms....it's a start...

Over in Detroit...an absolutely bizarre happening...the TV jocks...the guys who do the broadcasting for the MLB's Tigers...had had enough of each other...and got into 'fisticuffs'...what?...so, does the club fire one or the other, or both?...

Not to be lost on the 'speech' of Trump in Montana...were the all important gals and guys who are in the background...you know, the sign toters, the smiling face peops, the head nodders...the glad handers...the mix of all races and genders...you know the drill...dang, if there weren't some in the group that weren't mixing in properly...and were REPLACED mid speech...only in America...

We lost Burt Reynolds yesterday...most known for his role in 'Smokey and the Bandit'....and a staple on the late night talk shows...

An item that is not lost on most country radio stations...the lack of play of female singers...their songs that is...I suppose I could rephrase that...if you are a country radio junkie, like moi....it's true...even on XM...same...is it by demand?...or is it by the record companies?...their influence?...Sara has brought it up in her concerts...now Carrie is...

BTW, Carrie Underwood is releasing her new album, er CD, er whatever it is called...this Tuesday, I believe...

Amomynus, annonums, ah crap...what is it?....anonymous, DJT...
