"It just saves time."
So says a Bush alumnus.
"Why do people take such an instant dislike to Ted Cruz?

Justice Clarence Thomas will soon celebrate 10 years of not speaking during oral arguments at the Supreme Court, The New York Times reported on Monday.
That is, he hasn't asked a single question to lawyers appearing before the court to try to make their case. For a decade.
Does Fat Tony just do the talking for him or is he afraid Anita Hill will ask a question from the gallery?

The Koch brothers' donor retreats are notoriously secretive affairs, but after my publishing of several hours of audio from their 2014 summer confab, the network began to bring select journalists behind its closed doors. With strings attached. Six media outlets gained access this year under the condition of not disclosing donor identities, while the Kochs enlisted hotel security staff and police officers to intimidate this reporter from exercising her First Amendment rights.
As Koch grand strategist Richard Fink sat in the Glo Lounge of the posh Renaissance Esmeralda Indian Wells resort in Palm Springs on Thursday, I heard his communications staff report to him that Fredreka Schouten of USA Today was "prepped." Sure enough, just hours later, at 5 AM on Jan. 29, her piece went live on the USA Today site: "Koch brothers' new group will take on poverty, education."
Six approved media outlets spewing Koch's one percent lies. The Koch thugs have bought the Rethugs and now are working on the Press. Not surprising I guess.

What should be placed on the stage to replace absent tRump during the Reich Wing "debate?"
I say one of those novelty rubber dog turds topped with a Bozo fright wig.

Plot Summary of Reich Wing Propaganda Sleaze 13 Hours
Summary: 13 Hours is how time much elapses between Carnival Cruise getting sworn in as President and he launches a nuclear attack on somebody in order to hasten the rapture.

I read in the local fish wrap that Palin is ready to "stump for trump."
I think that should read Palin dumb as a stump for Trump.
