Bout Sums it UP

I knew someone would find a name for our 2012 election process!


Electile Dysfunction: the inability to become aroused over the choices for President put forth by either party in the 2012 election year.

    I love it and as you know things are a changing. Who would have thought that Paul would even be mentioned for the VP nod a few weeks ago. It is likely just smoke, but the fact that it is out there shows things are a changing. Huntsman saying it is looking like third party time, is a nice affirmation of what I have been saying.

    We are getting closer to real change in America and We the People are making it happen. The Tea Party spirit is not dead and it hasn't been fully co-oped by the far right. The Rise of the Angry Joes is coming, are you ready?

    That cartoon is dated 2000: hopefully, we will never have another presidential election decided by SCOTUS....

      Good eye BB. Given the current state of things, especially in the republican party but applicable to the democratic party as well, I believe the cartoon is quite applicable to 2012.

Is Our Democratic Republic At Risk From Forces Both Foreign and Within?...

We are moving this running post up to front page this evening where it will remain until January 3'rd 2017 when we will return to single posts, hopefully on a daily basis. There is much to do in getting the TRUTH out about Donald J Trump, a dishonest, totally self absorbed, and dangerous individual. He may be the president on January 20th but that does not mean thoughtful and concerned people shouldn't challenge Trump at every turn and fight his agenda whenever it runs contrary to their interests and those of their family. More to come. BTW, be sure to read today's entry, 12/28/16, below. this is just one example AND, it is just the beginning. You've probably noticed the brief posts of late. Posts with very short commentary by the weblolg administrator followed by an article that goes into the subject in much greater detail. This has been done purposefully following the rancorous 2016 election, and because its Christmas Time, soon to be a New Year.  This posting f...

More From The Lincoln Project On Our Liar In Chief...

Image
New from The Lincoln Project - June 9, 2020- Contrary to all evidence, since his inauguration, President Donald J. Trump has been lying about the size of the crowds that he says have come out to cheer him on. Finally, this week, in cities across America, from coast to coast, and small towns in between, crowds even larger than he ever imagined possible have gathered — not to cheer Trump on — but in solidarity with one message: It’s time for him to go. Donald Trump, the American people are speaking directly to you with a simple message: It’s time to start packing your bags Indeed Donald J. Trump has told thousands of documented lies since assuming office. He is, a pathological liar as well as a sociopath. His lack of leadership, corruption, divisiveness, and non existent emotional intelligence is appalling as well as dangerous. Trump, in 3 1/2 years has shown America in real time what a corrupt, inept, and egregiously incompetent man looks like. The crowds now filling the stree...

14 Points Of Fascism...

from: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Purveyor of Truth Fascism, a word tossed about frequently. Conservatives will say progressives lean fascist and progressives will say conservatives lean fascist. So, what's the truth? Or is there some truth both display some if not all of the characteristics?

Identification of enemies/scapegoats as a unifying cause 4. The supremacy of the military/avid militarism 5. Rampant sexism 6. A controlled mass media 7. Obsession with national security 8. Religion and ruling elite tied together 9. Power of corporations protected 10. Power of labor suppressed or eliminated 11. Disdain and suppr...
