Following the death of Jimmy Carter, we Boomers harken back to the times of his one-term presidency.  We wonder how it’s possible that treason in the United States’ highest office, in this case clearly committed by Ronald Reagan to defeat Carter, is never prosecuted.

Even after it was revealed that Reagan had prolonged our agony so as to secure his election in 1980, was there any chance whatsoever that our Department of Justice would step in?  Eff no. He was the Gipper, beloved by Americans who couldn’t have possibly cared what crime he may have committed.

Forty-five years, later, we have Donald Trump urinating on our country and all its institutions. The only difference is that now, we’re that much further away suggesting that a U.S. president should be held accountable for his crimes.

We’re also far more poorly educated, both academically and morally.

Good luck, America.  You’re going to need it.

Apparently, this guy believes that the majority of Americans think poorly of Trump supporters, and wonders if this the message we want to send.

News flash: This is precisely the message we want to send.

I wonder what his doctorate is in.  Filth? Debauchery? White collar felonies?  War crimes?

What Does “Support” Actually Mean?

The idiot’s t-shirt shown here raises the question: How do you define the word “support?”

In a certain sense, I support all countries, insofar as the people living in each deserve to live freely.

As an American, I support the United States.  I revere it for its strengths, while I advocate for remedying its considerable set of weaknesses: corruption, injustice, racism, indifference to human suffering, militarism, and greed.

Stupidity and Racism: A Lethal Combination

Published

BREAKING: Texas Republicans are flailing after a party nominee posted vile racist commentary and refused to take it back.
The firestorm started Sunday when Bo French, the GOP nominee for Texas Railroad Commissioner, posted a photo of University of Texas football fans, “most of them people of color,” writing that “the problem is now obviously far worse than anyone imagined,” according to Politico.
The post appeared to target South Asian students and sent Texas Republicans into a panic over the damage it could do “down the ballot,” including Attorney General Ken Paxton’s struggling Senate bid and Abbott’s own reelection.
Before the Republican party aligned itself with rank stupidity, tacit racism was not really a huge problem.  Now, however, we have the equivalent of mixing alcohol with opiates, a deadly combination, which has made the midterms very tough for the GOP–even in Texas.
