Institutional Democrats
I think I’ve made it clear enough that I think Republicans are reprehensible representatives of the bigoted, misogynous, rascist authoritarians that make up the 30% of the United States population who think the War Against Slavery was a War of Northern Aggression, and greedy parasitic Plutocrats that feel dispossessed and robbed now that that it’s …

Tonight I have reached back for 2 recent clips (though not from the most recent show, yesterday). ‘On Notice’ is highlighted because I always liked that bit even when Top Gear stole it; and also …

Why Networks Should All Uninvite Kellyanne Conway
It seems that Kellyanne “Con Job” Conway has spouted one too many alternative facts for CNN after she totally blew any remaining credibility she might have had over the repeated claim that there was a terrorist massacre in Bowling Green, Kentucky that the media didn’t report. The reason they didn’t report it was that it …
