AdLib 7 days ago

When you arrive, don’t forget to say “Hi!” or “Comey, irresponsible…” when you arrive!

AdLib 7 days ago

Call me irresponisible…call me A Clinton Hater!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Hey FD/KT!

AdLib 7 days ago

Shhhhhhh!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Heh!

AdLib 7 days ago

So what do you think about this Comey election meddling?

AdLib 7 days ago

KT is locked out. I need my sign in info if you could send it to me Ad. I was locked out once before. I’m not sure I’m using the right log in info. Hence Fuzzy Dunlop!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Oh! Did I miss an email or comment from you on this???

AdLib 7 days ago

I couldn’t send one, because I’m locked out.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Okay, will be right back after fixing it! Sorry about that!

AdLib 7 days ago

That’s OK, you don’t have to do it now. I might have some fun as Fuzzy!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Well, I’ll get it going then it’s up to you who you are going to be!

AdLib 7 days ago

LOL!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Anyway, what do you think about the Comey drop?

AdLib 7 days ago

I don’t know the hell he’s thinking. He needs to explain himself, and soon.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

I don’t think there is anything there that will hurt Hillary. I don’t think she’ll lose any supporters.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

He just released a statement to FBI employees but it’s almost as vague as the first.

AdLib 7 days ago

Once again, I think she’s being set up. I just find it hard to believe the director of the FBI would engage in such a thing. Then I think of J. Edgar and all the shit he pulled.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

of course, Trump and his minions are in hog heaven about this.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Welcome, Guest!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

goodbye Guest!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

I’m seeing pundits on the left saying they don’t blame Comey, that he’s just trying to cover his ass.

AdLib 7 days ago

I don’t see how this would achieve that. He’s just making an ass of himself, I think.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

This is more about dickhead than it is about Hillary.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Hey Ad and Fuzzy! Emails, shemails!

glenn

7 days ago

That’s what I say Glenn.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Well, I certainly am going to change my vote to trump because of more emails that didn’t come from Clinton’s server, and that Clinton didn’t write, and that may or may not be classified on someone else’s server. So there!

glenn

7 days ago

Hey PPO! How’s your Fergie?

glenn

7 days ago

LOL! Yeah that does it. I’m giving up everything I believe! So there!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Well Fuzzy, I’m so glad you’re so there with me!

glenn

7 days ago

Everyone needs a little fuzzy once in a while!

glenn

7 days ago

I was never dropped on my head as a child. I take it you weren’t either.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

hi all, sorry i’m late. My server was hacked to load up on HRC

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

Hear Hear!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

No, but my sister was, and it’s been a problem for most of her life!

glenn

7 days ago

brb

pinkpantheroz

7 days ago

Hey, a Pink Panther! Maybe we should get Clouseau on the case.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Hey Glenn!

AdLib 7 days ago

That can happen!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Hey Ad–how’s it going?

glenn

7 days ago

Hey PPO! I know the feeling!

AdLib 7 days ago

Meanwhile, yet another woman came out to say the Orange Molester groped her.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Pretty good glenn, except for the Comey crap.

AdLib 7 days ago

And there’s a new video with him insulting and then trying to lip lock Miss Australia! What say you to that, PPO?

glenn

7 days ago

What a fine mess!

Beatlex

7 days ago

So, Ad, if you take a Comey crap, does it come out square like a piece of paper? Or is it digitalized?

glenn

7 days ago

This election is one for the books.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

The comic books!

glenn

7 days ago

Hey Beatlex!

AdLib 7 days ago

Fo sho!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Hey Beatlex!

glenn

7 days ago

Ad! Hey!

Beatlex

7 days ago

Hey BeatleX

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Comeynist?

AdLib 7 days ago

HA!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Ad–LOL!

glenn

7 days ago

Or my earlier, Comey (Call me), irresponsible.

AdLib 7 days ago

Hey, you know what? If it makes trump happy, then I’m happy, right? After all, now he doesn’t think that everything is so “rigged” against him, poor baby that he is!

glenn

7 days ago

Weener is screwed, for sure. He got pervy with a 15 year old girl!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Weener has been screwed for years now! He’s a perv trying to live up to his name. I’m surprised his first name isn’t “dick”.

glenn

7 days ago

Oscar Myer?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Nah, then he would be hot, and that’s he not!

glenn

7 days ago

That guy has what are commonly called…”issues.”

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?

Beatlex

7 days ago

shine on you crazy diamond!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

I’m willing to listen Beatlex!

glenn

7 days ago

Just to vent, I am upset that Hillary put herself in this position, ironically, to keep people from seeing her emails and using them against her.

AdLib 7 days ago

I hear TRump’s businesses aren’t doing so well these days.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

This one really came out the blue though. Who’d a thunk it?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Ad–for someone supposedly politically “savvy”, and someone who has been vilified for over 20 years, one would think she would be the most careful politician out there. It either shows her arrogance, as many say, or her humanity.

glenn

7 days ago

What makes me feel better is knowing how many votes Hillary has already banked. And that her supporters are energized and pretty reliable.

AdLib 7 days ago

I really don’t think this is going to hurt her. People’s mind’s are pretty made up.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Or, she’s not quite as smart as we think she is.

glenn

7 days ago

This will not sway women voters, or black voters ot Latino voters, or college educated whites.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Let Trump and his Trumpies wet their Depends for a few days. They’re still going to lose…BIGLY!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Fuzzy, as Ad says, Hillary has banked many votes already. And, I agree, I don’t see this changing many people’s minds. Unless the emails say that she wants to blow up the world, I can’t think of anything they could say that are harmful. So what if she talks trash about her opponents? I just can’t figure out what the FBI is looking for, and how it relates to her “case”.

glenn

7 days ago

glenn- One interesting email from the Podesta leaks criticized her about having bad instincts. I think she is very smart about many things but when it comes to anticipating blowback, not so much.

AdLib 7 days ago

I told Ad Lib that I really don’t know what Comey is thinking.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

She hasn’t done anything illegal.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

This election defies everything that has come before.This defies all wisdom.”The Subversion of Democracy” A 3 part blog coming as soon as I can get Ad to help me write it!

Beatlex

7 days ago

FD – I don’t think she has but she opened up this whole can of worms and made herself such a target on this so unnecessarily.

AdLib 7 days ago

Well, hindsight is 20/20. Of course the GOP is going to milk this for all it can.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Even if she’s elected (which I think she surely will).

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

if Weener had kept his Oscar Myer in his pajamas, this would never have been a thing.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

The FBI won’t find anythin before the election and most likely nothing after either.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

FD – I think all of us could agree that any government employee shouldn’t be using anything other than a government email address for emails. It was foreseeable. Again, I don’t think she did anything to break the law but her penchant for secrecy always seems to hurt her more than if she wasn’t so secretive. That said, this shouldn’t change the outcome of the election. And especially coming on a Friday, many folks will be too busy with their weekend to pay it much attention.

AdLib 7 days ago

Meanwhile Chump is flailing away,aimless

Beatlex

7 days ago

Yup, Fuzzy, the gop has already said we are facing at least four more years of investigations. Read a good quote the other day–forget who it’s from–but it says, “Republicans’ idea of governance is investigations; Democrats’ idea is legislation.”

glenn

7 days ago

Republicans are incapable of writing good legislation. I really hope we take the Senate, which is looking pretty possible.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Just checked it–it was LBJ, and it’s “republicans investigate; Democrats legislate.

glenn

7 days ago

There are none so blind as those that won’t see.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Fuzzy–and hopefully, we’ll pick up a few more seats in the House. The repubs will still have a majority, but not such a large one.

glenn

7 days ago

Every bit helps. I wish we could clear the house and senate of the lot of them. Oh well, democracy is messy.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Fuzzy–even when republicans come up with a pretty decent piece of legislation, such as the ACA, when Democrats agree to it, they have to sabotage it some way. That’s why we don’t have single payer.

glenn

7 days ago

We really need to get The Senate and grab back a lot of the House. Yes, the Repub investigations will go on but maybe it will be a bridge too far for most Americans!

AdLib 7 days ago

At this point in time, he damn well should be.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

americ has places to go, and this standing still shit just doesn’t cut it.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

What happened to the Panther?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Fuzzy, it would be nice if we were just “standing still”, but IMO, we’re going backwards!

glenn

7 days ago

FD – Check your email…

AdLib 7 days ago

Thanks Ad.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

The Pink Panther is sneaky!

AdLib 7 days ago

Ha!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

If Hillary can get the SCOTUS working again, put more judges in courts and get Exec Orders gooing on a variety of things, even the harassment and stonewalling of the House won’t stop progress.

AdLib 7 days ago

So, Ad, what do you think of the not guilty verdict for the Bundy gang? How many more “takeovers” do you think we’ll see now?

glenn

7 days ago

I hope she doesn’t have to go that route, but she probably will have to.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Ad–I know the Senate approves SCOTUS nominations; what role does the House play in those nominations?

glenn

7 days ago

Hi guys!

Harleigh

7 days ago

glenn – I’m so disgusted by that! And yes, that insane jury just sanctioned ever militia making armed movements against the US and American people!

AdLib 7 days ago

I hope Clinton orders more EO’s than any president in history!

glenn

7 days ago

Hey Harleigh!

glenn

7 days ago

Hey Harleigh!

AdLib 7 days ago

What’s up Harleigh?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Ad–that’s my take on it too. I don’t understand the right’s version of “patriotism”.

glenn

7 days ago

Who the hell was on that jury? Alt righters?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Same old. Picking a fed target to take over… the usual… and emails… LMAO

Harleigh

7 days ago

My oh my, what to occupy?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

glenn – No role at all for House in SCOTUS nominations. Just meant that she can have victories through more Progressive judges being appointed even if The House blocks all the legislation she promotes.

AdLib 7 days ago

FD–Apparently. Didn’t read any articles on it about how they came to their decision. Did you happen to find any?

glenn

7 days ago

Me?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Part 1″Subversion of Democracy” We all know by now that America has serious problems.Stemming mostly from the flaws in your “checks and balances” system.The intent of the framers was the opposite of what happened.

Beatlex

7 days ago

Ad–that’s what I thought, but wanted to make sure.

glenn

7 days ago

glenn – The only defense they had was that they weren’t really armed to intimidate anyone and it was just a constitutionally protected protest.

AdLib 7 days ago

I just read a short article about it. I was quite surprised. I guess armed occupation is now legal.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

unfortunately yes

Harleigh

7 days ago

Beatlex–the framers are spinning in their graves about now.

glenn

7 days ago

supreme Court maybe?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Ad–okay, so will BLM have the same “rights”?

glenn

7 days ago

….oops…will BLM NOW have the same rights?

glenn

7 days ago

black lives, or land management?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Beatlex – No kidding! With Repubs now saying that they will smother the SCOTUS by refusing noms and just letting judges die off, it’s horrifying!

AdLib 7 days ago

Sorry, Black Lives Matter.

glenn

7 days ago

When we take back the senate, we’ll get our 9th judge.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

The gop is treasonous. I’m serious too.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

glenn – Nope, neither black people nor Native Americans are allowed 2nd Amendment rights when they protest.

AdLib 7 days ago

Just white men.

AdLib 7 days ago

Ad–I’m about running out of words to describe what the repubs like cruz, chaffetz, and trump are trying to do to our democracy. Horrified doesn’t begin to describe it!

glenn

7 days ago

I think our democracy will survive these yahoos, but they’ll won’t go quietly. They’ll throw a few tantrums along the way, like the spoiled children they are.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Ad–yup, it’s becoming more and more apparent that only white lives matter in this country.

glenn

7 days ago

FD and glenn – The GOP stands for blocking minorities from the right to vote, supports a police state where cops are like the military and can shoot innocent black people and destroying the SCOTUS and women’s rights. How is that not treasonous? Those are all rights in the Constitution?

AdLib 7 days ago

or I should say…only white men. Women, not so much, since now some are calling for repeal of the 19th amendment! Just think how boring these conversations would be on Friday nights without my “womanly” input!

glenn

7 days ago

Absolutely.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

FD – Agreed, we will grind past these terrible period for our democracy but it will continue to e harmful and scarring.

AdLib 7 days ago

Insufferable!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

AD-echoing FD–absofuckinglutely!

glenn

7 days ago

does Chaffetz have a punchable face, or is it just me?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

And yet…we have 35% – 40% of Americans who are racist/ignorant/selfish/emotionally deranged who would vote America and the world into massive disasters via Trump.

AdLib 7 days ago

Ad–let’s not forget that repubs are calling for impeachment before Clinton is even elected!

glenn

7 days ago

FD – More punchable than Ted Cruz or Trump?

AdLib 7 days ago

the Dakota pipeline vs Indian land and rights is going south fast too.

Harleigh

7 days ago

FD–I disagree; chaffetz’s face is not punchable; it’s kickable, preferably while he’s flat on his back!

glenn

7 days ago

That proves that racism, bigotry and hatred get passed down from generation to generation.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Just as, at least. Most of them do, for some occult reason!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Ad–I want to pull trump’s so-called hair out of his scalp. As for cruz, it’s not only his face that’s punchable. Wow! I’m in a violent mood tonight!

glenn

7 days ago

glenn – Yep, impeachment and aaa neverending regurgitation her email server crap and Benghazi for 8 more years. How can the morons supporting Trump notunderstand that all this means nothing will get done to help them?!

AdLib 7 days ago

LOL Glenn

Harleigh

7 days ago

Go get em Glenn!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Harleigh – I think it’s all a done deal, corporate power has oonce again used our govenrment to attack and slap down citizens and their rightful claims. This is disgusting.

AdLib 7 days ago

Ad,Everyone,educate me,is there not a mechanism to have a constitutional conference on changes to the document? If so,it would seem that that would be an avenue for progs to persue? Anyone know the answer?

Beatlex

7 days ago

Ad–I know; I was talking to a good friend the other day, and she said that most people voting for trump are actually voting against Hillary. I asked her if they had thought that through, and what they thought would happen if trump actually became ….. I can’t say trump’s name and the “p” word in the same sentence. She had no answer. Just to be clear; she’s not a trump supporter; she was just explaining to me why people are voting for trump.

glenn

7 days ago

Amendements can be proposed by the House, I believe?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

How many wives of Trump supporters are going to secretly vote for Hillary?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

FD–all of them, I hope!

glenn

7 days ago

Me too.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

2 fuzzy

Beatlex

7 days ago

I just have to say, there are too many flat out stupid people in America for progress to be made on anything in the time that’s needed for things to get a lot better in this country. I know the pundits say we have to embrace the stupid people out there but…just for this one moment in time at Vox…fuck ’em! Stupidity is destructive, I’m supposed to embrace destructive people?

AdLib 7 days ago

Impossible Beatlex. Requires super majority in house and senate and ratification by 3/4 of the states.

Harleigh

7 days ago

I can dream Harl

Beatlex

7 days ago

3/4 or 2/3?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Beatlex–yes, the House can propose amendments; but any amendment has to be ratified by 2/3rds of the states. It’s a very long, drawn-out process. Back in the 60’s, progs tried to get the Equal Rights Amendment passed, but it’s still waiting for 2/3rds of states to approve.

glenn

7 days ago

I may have it backwards…. it been a long time since I was king.

Harleigh

7 days ago

glenn – Totally cool, I’m pretty angry at this point too that we can be this close to having such a monster as President! The MSM carries a lot of blame but so do the intentionally ignorant and racist people out there.

AdLib 7 days ago

Ad–let’s just embrace the stuffin’ out of them! You know, until they suffocate!

glenn

7 days ago

So my friends,there is nothing that can be done to stop the spiral you are on? And you are on a spiral

Beatlex

7 days ago

Trump stuck at just the right time, when so many Americans have been so riled up by RW talking heads.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

FD and Harleigh–I’m pretty sure it’s 2/3rds.

glenn

7 days ago

Yeah, it is.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Trump, con man that he is, so his mark and went for it. He’s going to miss, but he’s left a lot of ugliness in his wake.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Beatlex – I used too think that having a Constitutional Convention would be a great thing, essentially opening the Constitution up too be changed by the states. But the arguments against that won me over. Imagine the permanent compromises that coould be made with the RW, giving them the opportunity to permanently change the Constitution is more dangerous than dragging through the SCOTUS decisions to change it.

AdLib 7 days ago

well I gots to work tomorrow. I think it is 2/3. It used to be 32 out of 48. now it may bee 33out of 50??

Harleigh

7 days ago

night guys

Harleigh

7 days ago

Later H.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

I don’t even pretend to know how it works Ad,It is so frustrating! What can be done?

Beatlex

7 days ago

glenn – My guess is that the polls are pretty much correct, Trump voters will vote for him, Hillary voters for her and the results on election night will resemble polling out there today. Though, Hillary has banked a lot of votes in swing states already so even with this Comey legal barf, I think she wins clearly.

AdLib 7 days ago

I think this comey think is a fart in an elevator. Nasty for a bit, but it fades quickly!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Yes, it’s 2/3 of states to change the Constitution as well as 2/3 of Congress. Very difficult!

AdLib 7 days ago

Ad,Agreed,I would be truly shocked(and dismayed) If that piece of shit Trump won.It would have far reaching effects,mostly bad

Beatlex

7 days ago

FD–it may fade quickly with Comey and the FBI, but the repubs are not going to let it fade. They’ve said as much this past week.

glenn

7 days ago

Beatlex – I think we can only safely change the Constitution with a Progressive SCOTUS.

AdLib 7 days ago

Well, they stink too. Unfortunately, that smell won’t fade so easily!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Do any of you think trump will start his own tv station after he loses the election?

glenn

7 days ago

Beatlex – He won’t win. This latest garbage could reduce Hillary’s margin of victory if it isn’t knocked down hard enough but I don’t think anything makes Trump win.

AdLib 7 days ago

YES AD! there is a way! To me that is the only way that things can change

Beatlex

7 days ago

FD–yes they stink to high heaven, unfortunately. Yet, 35-40% of the American people love their smell!

glenn

7 days ago

I can’t see America allowing a dangerous twit like Trump in the Oval Office.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

I think that 35-40% of the American people have gone “nose blind” to the stink of repubs!

glenn

7 days ago

glenn – I sure hope Trump does try to start up Trump TV and a war is launched between Fox News and him, the GOP will be torn apart even more.

AdLib 7 days ago

I think Trump will lose,and his “Brand” will be destroyed,there is already evidence of that.Karma

Beatlex

7 days ago

FD – I agree, Trump stinks way too much, Hillary will see some negatives rise but I think it’s too late for Trump to beat her in most swing states. Early voting has locked in Hillary advantages and turnout by Hillary voters will be even more intense after this crap.

AdLib 7 days ago

Ad–while it’s somewhat entertaining to watch the gop rip each other apart; it’s also dangerous, because our media parrots every stupid thing they say and do, without giving it any context!

glenn

7 days ago

The only way to change things among these yahoos is to pass real progressive legislation that improves their lives a bit. When they see things working better and then are reminded of how they were wrong, that may help quite a bit.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Beatlex – Yes, Trump will be a pariah for most people around the globe and his businesses will go under (because many of those supporting him are poorer rural folks who aren’t his customers at hotels and such).

AdLib 7 days ago

Fuzzy,have you listened to some of these people? Too stupid for words

Beatlex

7 days ago

oh yeah.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

FD–I hope you’re correct; but their lives have improved under President Obama; most of trump’s supporters are solidly middle class–I think the average income is around $57,000–yet they can’t get over their hatred of President Obama and soon-to-be President Clinton.

glenn

7 days ago

glenn – So true, just look at this ComeyCrap. The MSM is running around with its hair on fire because of the RW media and Repubs distorting it, they just act as a loudspeaker for extremists. That’s how Trump got to where he is. Our corporate meadia is so damn dangerous too.

AdLib 7 days ago

The racism and bigotry will be very difficult to rid. Maybe it will take further evolution, and holy shit, that takes a long time.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

FD–to complete my thought–hit return before I was done–they have been reminded of how wrong they’ve been and still vote for trump. It’s not easy to change stupidity.

glenn

7 days ago

I believe their main motivation is racism and xenophobia.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Or to change hatred.

glenn

7 days ago

In the immortal words of Ron White…”You Can’t Fix Stupid!”

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

FD – WHich is why Repub pols do all they can to block government from helping anyone. They don’t want people’s lives to be improved by government, they want to smother government so the wealthy don’t have to pay taxes and can further exploit the 99%. BTW, where is Occupy Wall Street when you really need them?

AdLib 7 days ago

Stupid is as stupid votes.

AdLib 7 days ago

Okay, folks, time for me to call it a night. I hope everyone has a great weekend. Hope to see you next week!

glenn

7 days ago

That’s what I believe as well. They have to be excised, like the cancer they are. That too is a very slow process.

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Night glenn! Have a great weekend!

AdLib 7 days ago

nite glenn. KT here!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

FD – What’s so wrong about sending them to the FEMA concentration camps? They seem to think it’s coming anyway!

AdLib 7 days ago

KT/FD–yeah, I did know it was you.

glenn

7 days ago

What gave me away?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

FD – Your drink orders.

AdLib 7 days ago

i’d like to send the to Mars, but then, what did Mars ever do to us?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Damn! Foiled again!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

FD – I thought men were from Mars.

AdLib 7 days ago

how about the Sun?

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Maybe send the stupid and racist to Uranus?

AdLib 7 days ago

They are anuses! Anuses Are Us!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

Well, time to say good night! So, good night!

Fuzzy Dunlop

7 days ago

How much thought do you give to other,more effective ways of governing? There are at least 8 or 9 Countries in the western world besides America.The rub is,that we believe that 50%+1 rules .Your branches of Goverment have ways to change the rules midstream,60 senators to carry on a vote? That AIN’T democracy my friends

Beatlex

7 days ago

Exactly!

AdLib 7 days ago

Theiranus? or Trumpanus?

AdLib 7 days ago

Theiranus? or Trumpanus?

AdLib 7 days ago

Anus-sis Ad!

Beatlex

7 days ago

How about we turn Trump voters into Soylent Green. Then everyone wins!

AdLib 7 days ago

THERE PEPOLEEEE!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHH!

Beatlex

7 days ago

Part of me wants some of them to mount an attempt to violently overthrow our democracy so that they can be crushed and scared away from their anti-Americanism.

AdLib 7 days ago

“How to Serve Man…it’s about Republicans devouring themselves!”

AdLib 7 days ago

Really Ad,I am disgusted by this election.It has been allowed to sink to the depths of political porn

Beatlex

7 days ago

BTW, did you see how Alabama is being destroyed by drought in 97% of the state, has next to no water management and believes Climate Change is a myth? The ignorant are trying to destroy themselves!

AdLib 7 days ago

And real porn! It’s the GOP and the MSM who brought us Trump and put him in a position too damage our democracy.

AdLib 7 days ago

I think it is worth examining Ad,My idea of a 3 part blog on “The subversion of Democracy” examining REAL options for grassroots activity.I am sure there are good ideas out there,starting here,at Vox.I have ideas,but need help putting them to words.ThX Ad

Beatlex

7 days ago

Day to day life is where we’re overwhelmed by the distractions that keep us from seeing the profound truths and questions about being alive. Love is one of those enormous truths.

AdLib 7 days ago

Well said Ad,I am there too in my life,I find that since my health scare that the noise that is daily life pale in compared to what really matters.Serenity.I like nature shows of any kind.Nature is the real truth

I can’t say I successfully escape all the distractions in each day. The best I can do is try and acknowledge the big truths and questions, about life and existence. And of course the greatness of compassion and love…as well as the easy traps of anger and ego. It’s tough to navigate through those seas and stay on course.

I try to watch or do different things,I still see a lot of coverage of American politics.I must be a masochist or obsessed? Wah! What AD!

Politics do matter and US politics can affect the suffering or prospering of people all around the world. And the life or death of people too. Politics do matter.

AdLib 7 days ago

OK Ad,You strike me as a very intelligent man and have a good grasp of the politics of your country.Question? What,within the parameters of your political system,can be done(or what needs to be done)to affect real change?

Well…I think change has been happening slowly and could be solidified this year if Hillary is elected. Like turning a huge ship, it’s slow and gradual. Big picture, changing the character of the SCOTUS will make the most profound change at this point while Repubs still control at least one house of Congress. Probably the most important thing people can do moving forward is work hard to change the state governments so that when redistrciting is done in 2020, Democrats can get rid of the gerrymandering that allows Repubs too be petty tyrants. That would break open the flood gates of change, to have a Dem President, Senate and House.

Good! Gerrmandering! the most anti democratic of all,It illistrates the silliness of State power.Some things,like elections,should be party neutral
