The trouble with
democrats trying to bring down Donald Trump is that they want it too
badly. They are trying so hard to do it
people see a sense of desperation in them because the democrats have become
known as a loser party. Yesterday Trump’s
son in law, the Jewish fellow, and Flynn were both in touch with Russia. But the situation gets muddied with all of
the charges and counter charges. The
adage is true that the best defense is a good offense. As I have said before, what we need is some
prosecutor to lay out the case in a “nexus” cause and effect type thing where
point A leads to B and then C and finally you get to overwhelming evidence that
convicts. We are still in search of a
smoking gun, because merely lying under oath isn’t considered definitive
evidence any more. And then they produce
photos with Chuck Schummer with Putin and say “See, the democrats do it too”. And you have Mike Pence with his private E
mail server that was hacked but you still hear the Republicans countering “Yeah
but what Hillary did was still worse because national security was involved”. The Republicans got where they are today
with a lot of hard planning and some under-handed schemes like James Comey’s
actions. And just remember that without
Citizen’s United” we wouldn’t even be talking about Republicans being in all
the houses of government. But I’ve been
fighting drowsiness these last two days.
I’m beginning to wonder whether I might have Epson Barr disease or
something. Maybe it’s a B vitamin deficiency. At any rate I dozed off and then roused and
Michael Moore was on talking about the reason why he knew that Trump was going
to win last year was that in Michigan people who had voted for President Obama
twice were switching to Trump this time around.
And you saw a whole lot more Trump signs than you saw Hillary signs. The Republican fortunes have by no means
plateaued or even gone into the equilivant of a financial “bubble”. So far the Republicans have not over-reached
because no matter what Trump has done, he’s somehow able to explain it all and
end up as the one who is justified and all of his enemies are just “sour grape”
detractors. I missed the snack
period. This morning I thought of some
blog entry I could write that would be so brilliant it would convince everybody
that we democrats did have a winning plan.
But I’m not the only person that’s out of ideas. Everybody is out of ideas and you hear
whispers that this whole thing with Sessions is going to blow over. This isn’t 1973 and our party is not in
power.
Nobody would have
guessed that when the internet began to get popular it would be such a vehicle
for the propagation of right wing ideas.
That’s why they call it the right wing echo chamber. Because people tweet their senseless thoughts
over and over again and the same error gets multiplied. It would be nice if people who used computers
really had to have knowledge in computer science. Of course I wish everybody were approximately
as smart as I am in terms of higher math and science and logic, and also a
decent understanding of history. People
today are told what to think by FOX news, which came on in 1996. The right wing didn’t really have a message
in 1996. It was kind of just Dole on his
own without much backing. But now of
course there are all the rich people like Sheldon Adelson and the Koch Brothers
organizing the brainwashing of the population.
They say that the news can’t tell you what to think, but it can tell you
what to think about. If they want you to
think about terrorists coming over the borders then that’s what you’ll think
about. You know the odds are slim of
coming up with a really intelligent thought in 120 characters or less, unless
you yourself are unusually intelligent.
People repeat these sayings and things they hear on Hannity because they
are conditioned like Pavlov’s dogs, to do so.
Arizona appears to be
on the road to defeating Arizona State leading by ten points. I was out for a cigarette and Augustine came
out with some St Patrick’s Day cup cakes with green icing. He had enough so each of us could have two of
them. Manuel was saying he was tired and
slept because he had nothing to do.
There are things I could do but I’m too tired to do them. As you know the Romulans celebrate St Patrick’s
Day the same day as we do on earth, along with most of the holidays shared by
earth. The one exception is Christmas,
which they celebrate thirteen days later on the Julian calendar. And Easter they don’t celebrate at all. I’d like to get rid of this cough. Maybe Rico will be more helpful than April
turned out to be. I should just call Dr
Saran directly since I’ve called him before but April says I shouldn’t do
that.
MISSING LINKS If you’ve seen today’s release of this
album (we are referring to the compilations of rock songs you see in my postings especially in May of 2006), which has been around since April of 2005 you will noticed four songs
have been added, which should have been there all along. On Disk 1 we added “Do You Know what I Mean”
by Lee Michaels, On disk 2 it is “I Can’t
Get Next to You” by the Temptations” and note the date peramaters say 1969 to
1974 (and early 1974 at that) Kicking
off disk 3 it’s “Mercedes Benz” by Janis Joplin, and on disk 4 it’s “Saturday
In the Park” by Chicago. You’re probably
tired of hearing about that stuff.
