Polling…

As the political craziness ramps up across the US for the 2024 election, voters will see more polls taken and more of their results. My advice: Don’t participate in them, and don’t even look at the results! As an ex-scientist, I understand a bit about sampling theory and predictions of future results from a few… Continue reading Polling…

Politicizing the apolitical…

Governments—local, state, and national—are so politicized now that politicians spend all their time creating chaos and pointing fingers at the other side to blame them for it instead of solving the problems that need to be solved. Immigration reform is probably the worst example of this politically generated chaos. President Biden will take the hit… Continue reading Politicizing the apolitical…

Done in by photo and tape…

Reduced to parsing a victory from a “not guilty of rape” verdict—a mere technicality about what was put where—the 45th president’s lawyer had to be well aware that his psychotic and sociopathic client’s ego had done him in. I’m sure that $5 million loss plus legal fees will be doubled by the time the guilty… Continue reading Done in by photo and tape…

AOC…

I once thought that AOC might become a serious leader of a young progressive movement that could work to accomplish positive things for America’s middle class and poor. No more. She has come to represent just about everything I find despicable among the majority of the country’s politicians. For a mentally challenged ex-bartender, she gets… Continue reading AOC…

Is this where the new civil war will begin?

Wars often begin in unusual places or in unusual circumstances. Civil wars, not so much; but the US is a big country! The Tennessee legislature’s scandal seems to be an unusual circumstance, but in many ways that state, as birthplace of the KKK, would be a fitting place to begin a new civil war. There’s… Continue reading Is this where the new civil war will begin?

Trump’s circus is back in NYC: a special report…

Il Duce’s imperious scowl has returned to Fifth Avenue; Tucker Carlson is foaming at the mouth about a possible gag order against his hero (I hope he loses his job when Dominion wins its lawsuit); and Marjorie Taylor Greene is chomping at the bit, ready to protest (she needs a permanent gag order!). Every fascist… Continue reading Trump’s circus is back in NYC: a special report…

The point of no return?

The Good Ole Piranhas (aka Republicans or the GOP) are now between a rock and a hard place: A minority of them want to return to the core values of the party—limited government, support of big business, a strong military and foreign policy, etc., the GOP’s traditional conservative values in a nutshell—but the others, especially… Continue reading The point of no return?

Talking points for the Dems’ 2024 campaigns…

Because everybody’s already talking about it, I thought an article about the upcoming 2024 presidential campaign and election, while a bit nonsensical, is perhaps appropriate. The Dems will have a good time if they can get past their petty and selfish differences; the Good Ole Piranhas will never get past theirs, so they’ll probably have… Continue reading Talking points for the Dems’ 2024 campaigns…
