We are supposed to live in a free society (don’t laugh!), and the default among our representatives should be that information is to be widely disseminated among the people for purposes of transparency and accountability. Before something is classified (made secret) there should be a careful examination of who and what is being protected. Embarrassing…
The Morning Report 12/4/20
Good morning, kids. The weekend is here, along with some blessed time off to escape the mental and spiritual curb-stomping of this past week. The most dispiriting news has been the infighting on our side centered around the two Georgia Senate seats that are up for grabs vis a vis backing two candidates whose conservative…
The Morning Rant
Yes, the perfidy of our “Republican” senators is well known. Mike Lee and Rick Scott are the two latest examples of a breathtaking lack of patriotism and an equally breathtaking loyalty to their masters. Who and what those masters are is academic. China, big corporate donors (but I repeat myself), a side piece who is…
The Morning Report 12/3/20
Good morning, kids. Thursday and the beat, and beat-down, goes on. Yesterday, the President gave “the most important speech” of his life, in describing what he and we believe to be the greatest crime in American history; the theft of a national presidential election. The president explained that our once-sacred “election day” has turned into an…
The Morning Report 12/2/20
Good morning, kids. Midweek and the beat goes on in this nightmare. From the unconfirmed, wild stories involving CIA director Gina Haspel and a supposed raid in Germany where Dominion/Smarttmatic computers and servers were seized to the direct testimony of witnesses claiming hundreds of thousands of phony ballots were driven across state lines to Pennsylvania…
The Morning Rant
The abject failure of the Republican Party (both the inside-the-beltway whore variety and even the more ideologically rational segments) to communicate its philosophical basis and its basic, readily acceptable platform is a travesty. How difficult would it be to hammer home a few simple points about the preservation of our republic through a robust and…

Good morning, kids. Tuesday, and the first day of the last month of a year from Hell, which we are still going through and no doubt will persist into the next one for a host of reasons. On a positive note, it looks as if three more House seats will go our way with incumbents…
The Morning Report 11/30/20
Good morning, kids. Monday, and the last day of the month. It’s also pretty much down to the wire in terms of the President presenting his case to the courts, the state legislatures or perhaps the House of Representatives as the Electoral College is scheduled to convene a week from tomorrow. The good news that…
The Intellectual Or Artistic Output of “Evil” Men: Is It Off Limits?
On Friday’s Art Thread there was an interesting discussion about whether the art should be judged with the artist in mind… Wagner the man was a rat bastard in many ways but the mother could compose. Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks, Tyrannosaur Wrangler And I responded: And that brings up the larger question of whether is…
The Morning Report 11/27/20
Good morning, kids. The weekend is here. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving celebration and were able to forget about our situation. Although I was at a dinner attended by liberals, the conversation mercifully was virtually non-political. That said, there of course was much fretting over the Chinese Lung AIDS but I was able…
