A hypothesis

Tuesday, August 22, 2023

Like many rational types, I was a tad surprised at a recent poll that showed that Trump voters are more likely to believe something he says rather than a contrary assertion by a family member, conservative “pundit” (gasp!, but then are they really pundits?) or their religious leaders. But I got over the tad quickly. […]

Rudy’s been naughty

Monday, May 15, 2023

So Rudy is being sued by a former employee for sexual harassment in the extreme. You can read many of the gory details here. Among them: [The] 70-page suit cites audio recordings and accuses Giuliani, 78, in graphic detail of subjecting her to sexual assault and harassment throughout her employment, forcing her to engage in […]

Good news today

Monday, April 24, 2023

So, Tucker Carlson has been fired by Fox. It truly couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. I’ve read all kinds of speculation about why Fox canned him, with the weight of the evidence seeming to be that he documented his hypocrisy in texts and emails, which included criticisms of Fox management for not consistently lying […]

Is the earth round? Opinions differ!

Tuesday, March 28, 2023

When I was in college it was a given that the function of a teacher, particularly a science teacher, was to teach the facts. For instance, the earth is an orb, flattened at the poles a bit, but basically round. It was pretty much understood that if a student insisted on maintaining that the earth […]

We learn here that Marjorie Taylor Greene has warned that Nancy Pelosi has unleashed the Gazpacho on the American people. Really. You can watch the video at the link. What a fund raising opportunity! Nancy should team with some well known chef of the Mexican persuasion and sell her Gazpacho to the millions of folks […]

Rock and Roll legend and first class asshole

Friday, December 17, 2021

I’d like to think that this, along with his anti-vax shenanigans, is simply a sign of oncoming senility, but from what I’ve read in the past few days, Eric Clapton has apparently always been an asshole: What with all this recent COVID crap coming from Eric Clapton one almost forgets that he’s been a dick […]

Are they really this crazy, or just playing crazy for the press?

Tuesday, February 2, 2021

I just got finished reading this post at Crooks & Liars, and my mind is truly boggled. The post is a sort of a state by state summary of the extent to which the nutcases have taken over state and local party organizations. But this is what struck me as the craziest thing of all: […]

How do these idiots rise to the surface?

Monday, December 17, 2018

Okay, I guess if you run a propaganda network, you’ll give a forum to anyone. Here’s a person who has a columnin the New York Post, who’s invited on to Fox to talk about his suggestion that Trump supporters pay for the wall by starting a GoFundMe campaign: Trump surrogates in the conservative media are so […]
