DECADES ELAPSE.
POTHOLES INCREASE,
BRIDGES COLLAPSE.
DO REPUBLICANS CARE?
MAYBE. PERHAPS.
Eric, how many times to I have to tell you not to whine in public. You always come across as a spoiled crybaby, and it's obvious you haven't accepted that your father is the loser of the century. What you see as harassment, others see as justice. What you see as a loving sister, others see as a raging shrew. You and your spoiled siblings have had a super-easy life, but you choose to complain and play the victim. I guess I can't blame you. If you realized what a creep you and your wife and most of your family are, even the lives of spoiled rich parasites would be unbearable. (Note: Today thousands of poor families are being evicted from their homes.Why not take some of your pocket change and pay somebody's rent for a year?)
I have not seen Stillwater, and have no idea what it's even about. But I do know that Amanda Knox feels it is harming her reputation. So all I can say is I have never, from day one, questioned the innocence of Amanda Knox. I feel Italy put her through hell, based on no evidence at all and just to satisfy a mentally ill prosecutor. The Amanda Knox trial was a great blemish on Italy's system of justice. During her long ordeal I read every book on the subject and wrote endless posts on her innocence. I also received lots of mail from neurotic, unread people who insisted Amanda was guilty out of their own idiocy and jealousy. That said, I also think that Matt Damon is one of our finest actors, and I hope that he did not knowingly participate in any action that reflects badly on Amanda Knox who is entitled to peace and respect after years of suspicion and turmoil.
Kevin McCarthy, who is increasingly becoming a joke, suggested the other day that the January 6 insurrection is no big deal. Is this man brain dead? A mob stormed the Capitol, broke windows, destroyed doors, assaulted police, stole valuable items, and even defecated on desks. This mob action also resulted in several deaths, including one of the rioters. No big deal. What's not a big deal is having to wear a face mask to protect your health and the health of those around you. But the Moron and his Republican gang is livid about this simple requirement and instead of doing the work of the country, they have gathered outside on the Capitol steps to whine and complain about masks. This despite the fact that they are overpaid, underworked and about to begin yet another long vacation. I hope the American public is paying close attention to Moron McCarthy's infantile tantrums and those of his complicit gang. The good news is they don't have to remember who the whining brats were. It was every Republican except for Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney.
When I see Peter Doocy on the Internet asking combative questions at the Presidential Press Conference, I don't know why somebody doesn't say to him, "What is your problem? Always looking for a negative slant. Are you just a bitchy queen or is there a reason for your shrewish negativity. You do know you don't even belong in this room with professional reporters. If your insipid and shallow father weren't on Fox, nobody would put up with your nonsense. I am guessing you spend more time pomading your hair than you do in serious research."
I'm delighted to know that Scarett Johanssen is suing Disney. I'm not sure why, but I do know that Disney is a crooked, greedy company with absolutely no love for children other than the profit they bring. When I lived in L.A. from 1991 to 1994, I submitted my screenplay called Euphoria to Disney. They quickly returned it, having no interest in the story. But years later I noticed that they used my name "Faraway" for a kingdom in Shrek and the most popular song in Frozen has the same title as my song in Euphoria, "Let It Go." Coincidental? Maybe. But Disney has been sued often over the years for plagiarism. Just saying.
This is the picture that accompanies the story in today's HuffPost pointing out that Republicans "Hate wearing masks". Now isn't that the saddest thing you've ever heard? Poor darlings, forced to put a cloth barrier across their patrician noses and costly dental work in order to protect less privileged people. What a burden it must be, hardly worth the princely salary they are paid to be obstructionists and in many cases traitors. They find it very difficult to relate to the millions of hard-working people they supposedly represent, but they understand the incredible hardship and exhausting difficulty of wearing a mask. Surely their leader, now known as the Moron, would do anything possible to relieve them of this onerous difficulty. If it weren't for those damn Democrats, so eager to protect the health of every meaningless person in this nation. See how obediently these covid-breathtng Republicans stand, waiting for their next order to repeat a new slogan; tell another lie; vilify another patriotic Republican (there are so few); deny another momentous moment in our nation's history; or just whine and whimper on how much they hate wearing masks.
True Republicans should be praising and supporting Cheney and Kizinger for being the only true American patriots who are defending their dying party in Congress, The rest of the Republicans are turncoats and traitors, clinging to the lies of the most destructive and obstructive president in our nation's history. As an ardent Democrat, I have no love for Republican ideals, but even I can see that Cheney and Kizinger are your only hope for the future.
While I totally disapprove of vulgarities. I also disapprove of America's traitorous Republicans. And from my observations they seem to be crude, angry, and pro-combative. They seem to admire loud-mouthed, tough-talking politicians: low-lifes like Jim Jordan, Matt Dietz, and Marjorie Taylor Greene. With this in mind, I suspect that Democrats would win lots of converts if just one Representative of Senator could be caught on camera (deliberately) ending an argument with a Republican by saying loud and clear, "Go fuck yourself." We always seems too weak, too polite, too controlled, too fair-minded, which is obviously what Trump fans do not admire. Let's start showing that we can be as crass and classless as all these dunderheads that worship at the Temple of Trump. The irony is that most of them aren't even Republicans. They're just so stupid, they became whatever their parents thought they were. I doubt that one in a hundred could tell you what a Republican is but knows all the ins and outs of Democratic created welfare programs.
Having been an advertising copywriter or 40 years, I am quick to point out that most of today's commercials are pretty lame. Bad enough that most of them suck, but you have to see them dozens of times a day. Often the same once-was-enough commercial plays twice in a row. But while Limu Emu is annoying as hell, and Prevagen is a fraud product promoted by talented liars, the commercials that offend me most are the low-brow attempts by amateurs to get humor out of vulgarity. Stuffed Puffs for instance is a good example. They end their vin ordinaire ads claiming their product is "fluffing delicious" in the hopes that you'll think of a more forbidden word and giggle. How this sells smores is beyond me. Several other classless advertisers try similar pathetic stunts. Decades ago commercials were created by talented writers and art directors. I don't know who dreams up today's often illogical or infantile promotions, but I sure miss the good old days or "Where's the beef?" and "I can't believe I ate the whole thing."
Watching Tucker Carlson lose it is almost as much fun as watching Donald Trump lose it. Do you suppose that spoiled rich scions like these two morons have less of a grasp on reality than sane people? Neither one of them seems to have any control of their thoughts and believes everything they say is of value, or even worse, true. This week Tucker was humiliated in a fly fishing store and exposed for his asshole arrogance by Representative Eric Swallwell. I wonder when Fox News is going to realize that Tucker, the anti-vax killer is as much a liability as an asset, the emphasis on ass.
What America needs most are more Dan Baileys, the American patriot who confronted Tucker Carlson in Bailey's own Livington, Montana, fly fishing store and told him, "You are the worst human being known to mankind. I want you to know that." Tucker without his makeup and camera angles, looking older and heavier and pastier, tried to laugh it off and wiggle off the hook, but couldn't. In a follow-up statement Bailey said of Carlson, "This man has killed more people with vaccine misinformation, he has supported extreme racism, he is a fascist and does more to rip this country apart than anyone who calls themselves an American." Thank you Dan Bailey for doing what millions of Americans would love to do if they had the opportunity. He showed us that Carlson is nothing but a cowering, cringing, unAmerican coward when he's not on Fox.
Having been a copywriter for 45 years, I marvel at the idiotic commercials that flood the networks today. How can the cornball Limu Emu and Doug possibly sell insurance for Liberty Mutual, much less their meaningless spots for wet teddy bears, battery boy, and aging jump-ropers? And what the hell is Dell trying to say by creating interior explosions much less end their tiresome spot with someone moaning, "It's my time to come alive." But those are only two of the endlessly repeated commercials that totally lack any logic. Bad enough that we Americans have to watch far too many commercials, but most of them are so bad it becomes a double whammy.
Scott Roe, a Covid patient in Louisiana, was asked by CBS News David Begnaud, "Before you got sick, if you would have had a chance to get the vaccine and prevent this, would you have taken the vaccine?" The fact that Roe said "no" is supposed to surprise me since it's such a stupid and possibly suicidal response. But what really suprised me is that CBS hired Begnaud, a reporter with so little command of the English language that he would use such ignorant phrasing. "Would have" is totally incorrect; "if you had" is all that was needed.
Knowing how homophobic Republicans are, you must admit it's ironic that Jim Jordan witnessed so many homosexual acts and denies every one. Imagine how many sexual acts committed by Dr. Richard Strauss on mostly unwilling students Jordan witnessed as Assistant Coach at Ohio State. This suggests that he is completely pro-gay (unlikely) a repressed voyeur (more likely), or a curious participant (possible). What isn't possible is his claim he saw nothing. Even today, Jordan's overly aggressive manner, fashion defiance, and Charlie Bracken loudness suggests an attempt to seem macho while his friendship with Matt Gaetz and his adoration of Brittany Spears are both curious. Thank goodness that Nancy Pelosi nixed him on the important Insurrection committee where he would probably swear he never saw anything even slightly untoward.
In a new book Donald Trump revealed he didn't wear a mask because he wanted to look "strong and healthy". I would suggest it's difficult to look strong when you're flabby and overweight and your entire face is covered with pancake makeup.
Marjorie Taylor Greene is like the Trump boys, Eric and Donald. Every time she opens her mouth,she says something stupid. The latest is, of course, her Hippa comment. The voters of Georgia sure didn't do themselves any favors when they elected this ignorant bimbo. She doesn't want to admit that she's been vaccinated because it may encourage people to save their own lives and spoil the anti-vaccine image this heartless harridan has been spouting.
Now why would Kevin McCarthy put treasonous Jim Jordan on the January 6 committee? It's obvious. Because he doesn't want the committee to succeed. Jim Jordan is the worst choice for any bipartisan committee as he is totally biased, narrow minded, and vindictive, as is McCarthy. How long do the Republicans feel that can get away with these anti-American, down with democracy tactics? It is they who played a major role in the Insurrection to begin with, so they are hardly in a position to judge its impact on our society. While other committee are seriously trying to understand the dynamics of this horrible day in our history, Jim Jordan will be gleeful that it happened, disappointed that it didn't succeed, rueful that not more patriots died and eager to make one of his bullshit speeches. And at the end of the day he will rush into the comforting arms of Matt Dietz who is as much a traitor to America as Jim is.
Be on the lookout for this fraud notice on your e-mail. I just found it tonight, so don't know how real or fake it is. Let's hope you don't get it.

The oddest thing aboutTrump's insane comments - like he could beat George Washington in an election - are not the comments themselves, but that thousands of otherwise sane people aren't embarrassed for believing in this nutcase. By being pro-Trump they are admitting to the world that they are gullible hero worshippers, easily parted with their money, unpatriotic Americans with almost no moral integrity. I pity the brainwashed children of these idiots. By the time the youngest is grown, the Trump lies will have been completely exposed and only a small number of demented holdouts will still believe the Trump Family Bullshit.
Having been a working person all my life, subject to time schedules, hard work and responsibilities, I don't understand the parasitic life of politicians. If Marjorie Taylor Greene and Matt Gaetz have paying jobs, how do they have so much free time to flit around the country making political speeches? And who pays for their travel and acccommodations? Do they rip us off for that? And is anyone keeping an eye on these illegal expenses? Also why are they hired in the first place if there isn't enough work to keep them busy? It seems to me we taxpayers are being hoodwinked by lots of politicians who use our money to finance their hobbies, vacations, and causes. It was bad enough when politicians were at least patriotic, but now that most Republicans are treasonous scum, I resent more than ever having them pick my pocket.
P.S. I didn't include their photos because I find them both so repulsive I can't bear to see their faces.
Ron DeSantis, the putty-faced Governor of Florida, obviously sees himself as the heir apparent to Trump. While he is as corrupt as Donald and as much of a science denier, Ronald isn't nearly as clever or charismatic. He is unlikely to develop the kind of following of gullible goons that the King of the Grifters has amassed. True, Ron's ill-conceived understanding of Covid has killed an impressive number of Floridians and tourists, but not nearly as many as Donald has wiped out. And DeSantis's totally bitchy and unfounded attacks on American hero Dr. Fauci make him look spiteful and uneducated, which he is, and can only lead to more death credits among the brainwashed unvaccinated. DeSantis already has visions of himself as the next president and has been known to frequently vilify Trump when he feels he's in safe company. But with so many Trump fans everywhere, all Ron's disloyal comments are sure to reach Donald's sensitive ears. So don't be surprised if they have a falling out before Ron's pudgy little hands can get a firm grip on Trump's coattails.
You've got to admit it's fascinating that so many people are stunned about Trump losing the presidential election to Joe Biden. They just can't understand how a man who did very little work, played tons of golf at the taxpayers' expenses, insulted every race but Caucasian, overlooked child abuse, and the murder of a reporter, praised a Russian dictator, and swore love to a North Korean tyrant could possibly get fewer votes than an honest, decent supporter of morality and democracy. The very fact that Trump's spoiled son and criminal collaborator, Eric, had a hissy fit on election night is hilarious in itself. Did he really think this country would embrace a con man and accused rapist? I guess when your hobby is killing endangered and innocent animals, you lose track of morality. You would think that all the Children of the Corn would be embarrassed by a wacko father running around the country with his dynel hair on fire claiming the most fair election in history was stolen from him. But no. He and the ungrateful Republicans who have fully absorbed the Kool-aid are working their treasonous asses off to bring America down. Fortunately enough Americans, including true Republicans, are grateful enough to their homeland and moved enough by Old Glory to keep this dictator and all his mad dogs at bay.
I knew Megyn Kelly was an ignorant bimbo, but even I was surprised when she tried to downplay the Capitol Insurrection as not being that big a deal. Does she have any idea of how stupid she looks by trying to deny the carnage and cruelty that we all saw with our own eyes? Did she need to be beaten and disfigured to make her face up to the reality of January 6? No wonder she had to leave a real job and go back to Fox in disgrace. All the anchors and darlings of Fox have such paltry credentials, and poor Megyn has even less than all the other Pinocchios.
Today on ID the script featured an amusing and inaccurate stupidity. To inform you that the murder victim had nettles on his socks, the detectives on the case pointed out that he was drugged. What they meant of course was that he was dragged (a frequent mistake), leaving one to wonder how ingesting drugs puts nettles on one's socks. Proper English is very rare on these shows, which I watch continually. Most officers will say the "body was laying" which is incorrect, instead of,"the body was lying", which isn't. This error, however, is not nearly as painful to one's ears as drug as a past tense of drag.
Apparently if you, as a parent, can get your child to eat pasta and cheese instead of a healthful, balanced meal, Kraft considers that a "win win". In addition Kraft seems to feel that you should take orders from your child and not require them to do anything or eat anything that they don't like. Am I only the only person troubled by these very odd and disturbing commercials?
Marjorie Taylor Greene is mentally ill (or as she pronounces it mennally). She thinks the California forest fires were caused by Jewish lasers and says so. She's entitled to her beliefs, I'm entitled to mine. I have heard that she was a toothless hillbilly. fitted with dentures and groomed to create chaos in the Congress with her insane theories and racist views.
If you're black, you have lots of enemies, mostly white Republicans because they're so afraid of your gaining any power. But your biggest enemy bar none is Gregg Abbott, the Governor of Texas, who sits on his skinny wheelchair-bound ass devising new ways to prevent you from voting. And he's getting away with it. Abott is an evil racist bigot who unfortunately heads up a band of Republican racists who fear blacks and Democrats as much as he does. But what frightens Abbott most is that you're strong and your vote is powerful (look at Mississippi). That is if you get to use it. And you must get to use it. So don't accept any of these rules to stifle your powerful black vote. Be loud. Be obnoxious. Be demanding. Don't let this cowardly cripple and his cowering cronies tell you when and where you can vote and whether or not you can have water. You have power, which is why he's so terrified. Use it.
I'm not Jewish. And I don't know a single victim of the Holocaust. But I wouldn't use a single Bayer product if they were free. I wonder how many people know that Bayer in Germany provided the gas used to kill six million Jews as well as gypsies, mental defectives, homosexuals and anyone else whose deaths provided profit. Ironically the now international Bayer still mostly produces poisons to kill weeds, ants, flies, rats, plants, and any number of other unwanted creatures, fungi, and mold. Sadly if you go to any market, you will see that Bayer dominates the aspirin market, and I imagine considers themselves a respectable retailer. Not to me. You are forgiven for many things in life, but not for being a mass murderer. If you're not familiar with their history, look them up on the Internet. Maybe you'll also stop being a buyer of Bayer.
In a new commercial for Hyundai, Jason Bateman says "Why are there innerstate highways in Hawaii". Sadly the producers of the commercial made Jason look ignorant by having him make the same pronunciation mistake that millions make, including top TV personalities. It isn't "innerstate" it's "interstate". There are no innerstate highways. You would think Hyundai would know better than to create an expensive commercial with a huge personality and screw up the single most important word in the message. Duh!
I am still mystified by a regular feature in the Huffington Post. It s a salacious collection of photos by who knows who (whom?) that is incredibly out of date. I can never show it to you because HuffPost removes it as soon as they post it, and I cannot drag it to be viewed. Today it features female office workers who were in tight skirts or in provocative poses. It is a sophomoric feature bordering on the masturbatory that you think HuffPost would avoid rather than show regularly. Is it possible HuffPost has one dirty old man employee whom they feel that have to allow express his 1940s sexest and outdated view of women? If anyone uncovers this mystery, please let me know.
Trump supporters are way beyond nuts. Their latest madness is that they now hate Ron De Santis because he had the audacity to compliment President Biden for his caring about the Surfside disaster. Apparently if you're a Trump fan, any show of sanity and reason is verboten. I hate Ron De Santis because he's a jerk and an opportunist. But the most admirable thing I've seen him do is show concern for Surfside sufferers and show deserved regard for our duly elected president, Joe Biden. He should have known that Trump's fans are the most delicate of blossoms and the most unhinged of all neurotics. Can he regain their favor? Absolutely. Because they are as mercurial as they are mentally deranged. Even when all Trump's criminal acts have been exposed, his disciples will still place him far above Jesus despite his age, dissipation, and obvious amorality.
