From the horrible punster and Moron in good standing Seamus Muldoon, over at Ace of Spades There once was a turkey named Erdogan Who acted just like a big turd again If they throw me in jail Will the Horde go my bail? If so I’ll just flip him the bird again.

“I Have Become The Establishment, Destroyer Of Plans.” (MO Caucus Roundup.)
So, as I noted, I made it to caucus today. It was…more eventful than expected. I took 2 pages of notes so I’ll try to tell you what happened to the best of my notes and memory. I shall also remind you of my biases, I went to Caucus today with 2 goals: 1) #neverTrump…
“Live” Blogging the MO County Caucuses
Hello readers. I’ll be at MO county caucuses tomorrow. Depending on timing and internet connectivity, I’ll be either live commenting or writing a follow-up later that afternoon. Missouri has county caucuses to choose congressional convention delegates (who will nominate 3 national delegates directly later this month) as well as state delegates. Due to the fact…
Some Pushback Against Transgender Insanity
The American College of Pediatricians has issued a statement that is shocking in its frankness and lack of sensitivity to the many Social Justice WarriorsTM who have been rushing headlong into the miasma of mental illness known as gender dysphoria. Yes, it is a “temporary statement” that will be finalized and published in the summer,…
“Cultural Appropriation” Is No Such Thing: It Is Called “Culture”
I find myself in the odd and distinctly uncomfortable position of defending Justin Bieber from SJW attacks, prompted by his “cultural appropriation” of dirty, unkempt hair….also known as dreadlocks. My experience with dreadlocks, and their stench, was mercifully brief….a matter of two weeks. I had to train someone as my replacement, and that required her…
NYT Shocked To Find Company Actively Promoting a Beneficial Viewpoint
Note: I started this post in September of 2015, but time prevented me from finishing it’s relevant again so I’m making updates and putting it out there now. So, the NYT did an expose about Monsanto’s work combating anti-GMO silliness by sending supportive academics out to give talks about their support of GMO. The times,…
Trump’s Supporters Mirroring Hillary Clinton
So…the Trump abortion fiasco. I don’t want to focus on Trump himself just yet, but rather his spinning minions. Just now (about 1:15 CT) on CNN one of his supporters/surrogates insisted that Trump was referring to what would happen if you made abortion illegal. Hillary Clinton with Anderson Cooper last night said “if you make…
So Donald…Let’s Say You Get The Nomination. What Will You Do If You Lose The General?
Donald Trump has spent his career inflating his successes and ignoring his failures, and that has worked rather well for him and his bankruptcy attorneys. Whether he really is the incredibly successful business man he claims is up to the forensic accountants, and I don’t much care either way. But Donald Trump claims that everything…
All Politics is Local: An Intelligence Agency, North St. Louis and Donald Trump
I haven’t blogged much about this because it seemed uninteresting to the national events, but there’s a brouhaha over relocating a federal agency in my town. Looking at it now, it’s a bit of a microcosm for what’s going on at a national level, namely why everyone hates politicans and Donald Trump is capitalizing on that….
“Donald Trump Is For Women, He’s The Only GOP Candidate That Supports PP”
You’re the GOP frontrunner you say? This is a more or less quote from a live CNN interview with Mary Kathrine Ham and a Trump surrogate. (Time 9:10ish CT. Please remember my editorial policy on live interviews.) She did try to qualify it by going on to try and distinguish between the “horrible” things and “good…
