5AM watching the rerun of Rachel from last nite

She, "If you are nervous about this election. And if you are a Democrat. Oh, but I repeat myself"....too cute by 1/2 Rachel...bought and paid for by M$$$$M and Andy Lack. All we have left are Joy and Lawrence, who said last nite when showing the Charlotte video, "Move that MSNBC logo off the screen, it is clogging up the video"....BRAVO.

letter I published today in local papers..my alderperson said I put the stink right out there


REALLY


There was a press conference September 9th in downtown D.C. The venue was changed, then cancelled, then at the last minute reporters were told to look for a man with a brown tie and gray suit. They were led to a windowless ballroom where the leading lowlifes of the Alt Right Movement assembled for the purpose of letting us know they are white power racists. Televised and tickled to be getting so much attention in this election, Jared Taylor said, "We reject with the utmost enthusiasm that the races are equal and interchangeable. East Asians have an IQ of 102-103. Whites - 100. Hispanics- too hard to determine. Blacks -85. Now, the evidence is absolutely overwhelming that there is a substantial genetic contribution to these differences, whether we like it or not".

The reason these guys were out clarifying matters to reporters in a DC ballroom was that they feel they can come out of the woods a bit. For the first time in their racist lives, they are getting the mainstream support they've always craved. This is their time in mainstream politics. They've finally got a champion. Richard Spencer said, "Certainly we have been riding Trump's coattails. There's more interest in us because we're pro Trump and we're inspired by him. This is what a leader looks like."

Trump is their candidate. When these guys come out of their hidey holes to brag they've got a real leader in Trump and are emboldened by how well he is doing, they just want an all white homeland. Is that too much to ask?

It matters that one side of American politics is pulling a drag bar through the sewer tanks of what used to get flushed out of politics. Trump's CEO Steve Bannon is the go-to Alt Right guy. Don Jr. has been posting Alt Right memes and going on Alt Right radio shows. What they are front- paging is repugnant.

I went to the Amber Grill for the last outdoor gig of the summer. I tacked a picture of Trump with duct tape over his mouth "HOW TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN" to the bodice of my silk Grace Kelly dress. Four staff members said "We wanted you to know how much we enjoy your outfits." Six people asked to take my picture and post it. Lots of thumbs up and smiles. Then a stout lady came up to me and said "Really?" Later on she made sure to bump into me with another comment. I never said a word. I figured my shirt spoke for me. Now, I'd like to say "Align yourself with white supremacists, terrorists and dictators- deplorables. Yeah Lady, Really."

No Studio Audience

Seth MacFarlane ?@SethMacFarlane · Sep 20

Here's an idea: Lose the damn studio audience at the debates. No one cares about hearing their circus noises. Treat it like Kennedy/Nixon.

Do you do door knocks on Republicans?

Here in WI we only do OUR voters. From our VAN lists. Any other election I rebelled against this. But, this election our opponent's supporters do not operate in a land of reality, real reality. The BBC interviewed a Trump supporter in Pennsylvania who said of Hillary “A truthful word has never come out of her mouth”. Really? She lies all the time? Where do you get that idea? No don’t tell me, I already know. You think she lies all the time and yet you’ll vote for Trump.

At this point, convincing a member of the Republican base that any Democrat is anything other that a criminal come to oppress them is like convince an Orthodox Jew to enjoy a BLT. As the saying goes, you can’t use logic to talk someone out of a position that they didn’t use logic to arrive at. And there’s no logic involved in the Republican base. They just believe what they want to believe and work backward from there. As I said I live in Wisconsin.

good morning deplorables

John Fugelsang ?@JohnFugelsang · 14h14 hours ago

I can't wait for Don King to wrap the Trump black outreach campaign so Lyle & Eric Menendez can make the pitch for Latino voters.

Rachel just announced Gannett bought NJ paper

Today was the opening day of Big Boy's BridgeGate trial. Guess what happened? Gannett bought out their local paper and fired 130 reporters. Reporters who brought this scandal to the fore. Living in Wisconsin I can tell you Gannett has protected Scott Walker for 6 years now. I used to write for them, censorship abounds. Very sad news.

Nana Clinton

My pal and I were in the elevator this AM and a 40ish nurse lady got in. I said to Connie how Nate said HRC will win the debate but the media will give it to Cheeto. The lady turned around and said Hillary is a liar. i said you're talking to the wrong 2 people here. She said, I know, but both candidates are rotten. I said no they are not. You are buying the media's crap. Read this:
