OK...I surrender...

I’m watching a recording I made of the Olympic Procession on the boats, and I must say that the erudite commentary by Mike Tarico, Peyton Manning, and Kelly Clarkson IS THE MOST INSIPID SERIES OF COMMENTARIES which I have ever heard anywhere, anytime. It makes me wish for the days of that insufferable Bryan Gumbel.

Must be watched...

Yeah yeah I know…”I don’t go to Facebook.” Your big loss…
I’m telling you…it’s the BEST.

So...what is J.D.'s next name?

He’s got more aliases than Frank Abagnale ( the guy from Catch Me If you Can).

A question for the group but especially for the RW lurkers...

The RW is adept at the daily outrage: Obama’s tan suit is one of the best examples….its always fucking something with them, very persistent and generally very stupid, beneath contempt usually. But here’s the best part…the outrage of Tuesday is immediately forgotten on Wednesday with a new outrage which disappears on Thursday. Yes, it’s supposed to be a firehose of negativity but in fact is just stupid gasping and grasping at straws.

So here’s a thought: suppose for the sake of argument that the shooter hadn’t missed from the rooftop and, I’ll be civil and polite, Orangina was incapacitated to the point where he could not stand for election (or even erection). Could the DNC sue the R Campaign because the Dems spent all this money on advertising against Fuck-o but he’s being replaced? Because that is the logic the Republicans, if you still want to call them that, are using in this week’s outrage.

How dare the Democrats listen to them and choose a “more viable” candidate from their perspective? Logic and any form of reasoned intellect is out the window. It’s HATE 24/7. That’s the platform.

As an addendum, I might suggest watching of the series The Man in the High Castle . Once you get past the early set-up episodes, it becomes a fascinating study of how Americans would make loyal and committed Nazis. It also demonstrates how the autocratic system self-immolates eventually. Terrific concept and execution.

The script for this remarkable "movie" is not yet finished...

I believe we are in for a dramatic denouement and conclusion to this epic story. There are several conceivable endings as per the usual Hollywood formulae, but my bet is on a nearly-unpredictable finale to the story. I’m just hoping and praying that it’s not like The Day After or Dr Strangelove.

This latest chapter for Orangina has been akin to those videos of the Slingshot rides at amusement parks

This is metaphorically what happened to him on Sunday. Can’t be good for the old ticker there…

Lemire on Way Too Jerkoffy is so frigging Predictable...

“After the break, we will examine the list of those elected officials who have already endorsed Kamala Harris AND ONE IMPORTANT DEMOCRAT WHO HAS NOT YET DONE SO.” (My emphasis)

It’s been like 15 hours, you stuffy person. President Obama will take care of business when the time comes. It’s not DEMOCRATS IN DISARRAY!!!! even though you’d like it to be. Putz deluxe.
