Dear MSM – Giving The Benefit Of The Doubt Is Not Journalism
It’s not a stretch to say that at least 90% of our Main Stream News Media has failed miserably in their reporting on Donald Trump. From not doing their initial homework on Trump (as Fusion GPS did when first hired to do oppo research on Trump by the Washington Free Beacon – research that convinced…

Stephen Miller Meets The Folks
(Note — We learned yesterday (the internet is still puking its guts up) that Stephen Miller has been dating Katie Waldman, Mike Pence’s new press flack. Previously, Katie was DHS spokeswoman under Kirstjen Nielsen — you know, the DHS’s glory days). Having a daughter of dating age, I naturally wonder about the people she dates. …

Republicans & The Culture Of Ignorance
Republicans didn’t always used to be champions of ignorance. Funny irony? When the Republican Party was founded back in 1854 (Abraham Lincoln was among its founders), their anti-slavery mission statement spoke of their dedication to classical liberalism and real economic opportunity for all Americans not just the moneyed class. As Heather Cox Richardson points out…

We Got Donald Trump All Wrong; As Horrible As We Thought He’d Be? He’s Way, WAY Worse
A lot of us anticipated the bad horror movie the Trump presidency would be. It wasn’t exactly rocket science.

Dear American News Media: Never Mind What The Democrats Are Doing To Prep For Trump In 2020, What Are YOU Doing?
I’ll answer my own question (it’s why I asked): NADA. The overwhelming bulk (the perfect word) of the American News Media is happily zooming down the same idiotic, Democracy-destroying path THIS election as they did in 2016. Despite whole mountain ranges of evidence, most of our MSM still refuses to accept an ounce of responsibility…

Dear Conservatives — Your Problem Is: No One (Except YOU) Wants To Conserve What YOU Want To Conserve
Want to know what a conservative wants? Look no further than their name: “CONSERVATIVE”. Conservatives want to “conserve“. Now — ask the next logical question — “WHAT do conservatives want to CONSERVE?” Do conservatives want to conserve the future? Of course not — you can’t conserve what doesn’t exist. Do conservatives want to conserve the…

Republicans Have No Idea What “Integrity” Is — “Ditto” The Rule Of Law
Ever meet a guy with 96% of his integrity intact? “Yeah — he’s pretty honest most of the time… it’s that 4% where he’s a goddamned liar that’s the problem” is not a sentence one hears often. There’s a reason. Integrity either is or it isn’t. There’s no middle ground, no grey area. In fact,…
