Bozvotros's JournalDo we really think that a woman would never make up a charge of sexual abuse or assault?
Talk to some family and divorce lawyers sometime. Ask them if it happens. Do we think there are no conservative women who would grossly exaggerate an ambiguous or even non existent event to bring down a liberal politician if they were promised financial support and legal funding by anonymous Republican donors? Or if they were just hungry for a little attention? Because they know they will be worshipped by Trump zombies.
Those things happen and people will lie for money and attention. And the fucking Republicans are not above promoting it. Ask Bill Clinton. While I believe he was a total cad to women, I also believe his accusers were well compensated and at least some of them were making it up, exaggerating or leaving out key details.
I am sick of this self immolation by the Democratic party. These allegations on Franken don't have a tenth of the odiousness of Moore and Trump's behavior and they seem to be almost forgotten in the urgency to "purify" our party. Franken may be guilty but I am doubting most of the stories now.
Ban me. Mute this post if you have to. But we need to emphasize what the differences between the allegations about Trump, Moore and Franken are and wait for Franken's ethics commission before we throw him to the wolves.
But of course, we won't.
This will all end very badly.
My heart breaks for you as it breaks for this country that is being pulled apart day by day. Your brother is just one of many people who are being transformed into unrecognizably cold blooded haters who are just waiting to melt into a mob. They have been steeping themselves for years in the flood of lies, innuendo and race baiting on hate radio and Fox and are beyond the reach of reason.
Heavily armed white supremacists and garden variety racists are more than ready to start taking people out if Trump would call for it. And he might. They also hate liberals and progressives almost as much as they hate minorities and immigrants. They want to and believe it is necessary to purge people like you and me from their lives and this country. Our loathing and mockery of their demented leader is felt as a unforgivable insult to them and the more we rail about him the more they hate us.
Months ago that evil Trump troll, Roger Stone predicted (nay, called for) a violent reaction to any attempt at impeachment or removal and there is no doubt that is where we are going. Every day there are paramilitary groups training in rural areas for that day when chaos and lawlessness are unleashed. They believe it is going to come from violent gangs of immigrants and the minority underclass but the real source will be them. Our DOJ has chosen to ignore this threat when it is clearly the most pressing mortal danger to our democracy.
I fear and I believe that before this is over, there will be terrible violence from the right and a great loss of life including many police officers, National Guard and US military troops called in to quell the violence. I believe the haters will fail but there is no guarantee of that.
I wish I didn't feel this way but if you listen close you can hear the threats growing bolder and louder all the time. We all need to be careful and alert and probably more of us need to be armed.
Napoleon actually did something.....
He almost conquered all of Europe on the battlefield. Trump on the other hand (if we get him out of office in time) will be viewed as a stupid, vain, blundering fool whose overt corruption, vengeful erratic behavior and constant need for attention and validation ended his reign of error. But if we wait your prediction will be true.

Trump's Real Diagnosis: Histrionic Personality Disorder
Yes, his narcissism is real and gets a lot of ink. He's probably Bipolar II also, but what his real problem is can be found in the link's below. He's a rather pure male histrionic; an attention whore carrying the nuclear football, a preening desperate aging impotent prick of a human being, who gets desperate and mean whenever he isn't the center of attention. Who the fuck wears hair like that at age 70?
If we could ignore him safely he would implode in a matter of weeks. Unfortunately if we ignore him he is likely to ignite a world war to get the focus back on him.

I've said this for years too
Abandoning the fairness Doctrine without a real fight gave us fascist radio around the clock. Fascist radio gave us Fox television, all of which has supplanted or supplemented religion as the new opiate for the masses. Withdrawal from the staggering cognitive dissonance created in that world is too painful. The only thing that can relieve it is more of the same.
Roosevelt: "Will Hirohito be my new best friend?"
Dissociated Press: Roosevelt: "It would be great if we got along with Hirohito."
President Franklin Roosevelt faced a fresh round of criticism over his administrations ties to the Japanese Emperor when he asked if Hirohito would be his new best friend. It was only a few weeks ago when combined forces of the Japanese Navy and Air Force attacked and destroyed most of Pearl Harbor. President Roosevelt immediately dismissed these claims despite corroboration from virtually the entire US Military and intelligence services.
Last week he hosted an envoy of Japanese dignitaries and entertained them in a private conference room at the White House and refused to allow access to the American press. The Japanese envoys however took multiple pictures that were immediately duplicated and dropped from planes on the people being beaten and raped in Nanking. Franklin dismissed this as littering and famously said “You think we're good guys?” He also asserted that there was no way to know if Pearl Harbor was attacked by Japan or Korea or China or just some skinny laundromat owners with pilot licenses. “I think it would be great if we got along with Japan,” he said in one of his rambling sometimes incoherent fireside chats.
“He has also repeatedly been claiming there is “no way to tell whose flying in those little biddy planes way up in the sky” adding “Anybody could paint a red circle on a plane wing.” Since then it has been discovered that most of Roosevelt's family and cabinet have been engaged in lucrative private business arrangements with Japanese businessmen with close ties to the Emperor and that Roosevelt himself was on the hook for millions of dollars from Japanese bankers. Roosevelt denied it all as a “Tempest in a teapot” a coincidence and a hoax. “The Republicans are just trying to distract the America people from their failed economic policies and the beat down I gave them in my third election.”
Today in a move that outraged most of the military he placed Admiral Kimmel, the Commander at Pearl Harbor in charge of the entire Pacific theater and fired Admiral Halsey and Admiral Nimetz who he described as hot shot showboaters without a lick of sense. He also announced he had no intention of not greatly expanding his family fortune and that he was sick of all the lazy white people who were not contributing to the economy and promised to ship them off to Scotland and Ireland as soon as he could make them build the boats to do it. He also announced plans to deregulate business and dismantle unions to permit wealthy friends to plunder and degrade the country like there is no tomorrow. “There is no tomorrow,” he announced merrily.
Democrats in the Senate and House refused to condemn the President or interrupt his reign of villainy and terror even though many of them described him privately as unhinged, immoral, deranged, corrupt, stupid and venal. “We have to stick together even if he destroys the country and drags us all to hell” they said.
Trump BIOS updated
I see they've updated the Trump BIOS. The Boldly Ignorant Ostentatious Showoff firmware was good for simpleton primaries but wholly inadequate with having actual political power. This was especially true because Trump insisted he didn't need any operating system and could install any program he wanted. You were starting to see the Blue Screen of Death in his eyes and hard shutdowns occurring more and more often. Today though you could see that even without an operating system or functional programs the Blowing It Out Shithole firmware is a much better fit for him.
Smoke vs Fire
I have a question. Do you think I have something to worry about? My house has been filling up with smoke the last few weeks but I can't seem to find a fire. My wife is sure there is one, but for the life of me I can't find it. I keep telling her to quit worrying but she keeps saying there has got to be something burning and I keep saying "Well, go find it, Miss Smartypants!"
She can't find it either but she sure is getting hot and bothered by all this smoke and heat. I admit that I can't see the TV anymore and I can barely see the screen right now to type this. And I am coughing pretty hard and feeling light headed but if there was a fire I think I'd know it. To be honest the floor feels pretty hot too but like I said, no fire so no big deal. I hooked up a big fan and opened a window and I think it is already getting better. I pointed another fan at me and stripped to my skivvies and it really isn't so bad anymore...mostly.
Hold on a second....my wife just crawled out of here and is yelling at me from outside. Christ! Something about the asphalt shingles melting or some such bullshit. But I need some proof and from what I keep hearing from Fox is you don't have to worry until you see fire. I hope I can stay up for Hannity but I am getting pretty sleepy....
They do get livid
Until they get a particularly virulent disease or cancer, lose their job, can't get insured, have a handicapped child or spouse etcetera. Then they lose some of that lividness.
And those healthy young people don't stay that way forever. The last few years and particularly the last few weeks of life are the most expensive part of National Health Care. That's why there's been a big push have everyone have living wills. And I've been amazed to see how many people who trash Medicaid as a big waste suddenly lawyer up with estate attorneys when their wealthy parents need to go into a nursing home. Funny that.
And let's just put it this way.... there's a lot of unhealthy people in Trump country who don't have any problem with showing up in an emergency room for their free emergency gummint Healthcare.
Medicare is nuts too.
There's no reason to have four parts to Medicare. Part A just covers hospitalization. Why did we decide to prioritize only hospital payment with our payroll deduction? Why isn't major medical and pharmaceutical costs part of our Medicare deduction during our working years? I'm sure there's a very good reason that doesn't involve lobbying by hospitals, big pharma and insurance companies. Or blood sucking parasitic vermin. But I repeat myself.
