Suck it centrists
I love how Liberals have had to hold their noses for years and vote for walking mediocrities like Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, and John Kerry and now that the tables have turned, holding one’s nose is just terrible. TERRIBLE, I say!
The Big B Prepares to Enter the Race
Not Joe Biden, whose Delaware-sized ego is going to convince him to run again, despite the cries of a majority of Democrats. No, I mean Beto O’Rourke, who appears to have made up his mind to enter the race, according to the Dallas Morning News. The newspaper is only reporting that anonymous sources close to […]
Song of the Day 2/28: Talk Talk, “It’s My Life”
The music world is mourning the death of Mark Hollis, founder of the British band Talk Talk, best known for a string of synth-pop dance hits in the early ’80s, culminating with “It’s My Life,” later an international hit when covered by No Doubt. If that was all he ever did, his passing would hardly […]
Coons on Morning Joe Just Now
I completely missed it, but I suspect that Coons “feels very strongly” that there is “a lot of work to be done” with his “friends across the aisle” to “come together” in the interest of “bipartisanship” to “get things done” to “benefit all Americans” as “we were elected to do.” Otherwise, the discourse could be “dominated by extremists” because the overarching goal is to “break the gridlock in Congress” and that if he continues to “reach across the aisle” hard enough, to achieve a “bipartisan consensus” on “important issues facing the country” everything will be okay.
White Privilege Treatment Continues for Convicted Wilmington Trust Criminals
It pays to be white. If these CONVICTED CRIMINALS were African American 20-year-olds, picked up for having $10.00 in cannabis on them, they’d be cooling their heels in the joint for sure. Four former Wilmington Trust executives facing multi-year prison sentences will avoid jail time, at least until an appeals court addresses the case. U.S. […]
‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes: February 2019
We will deviate from the normal alphabetical listing of songs by artist, at least for one special song and artist. Why? Because not only is this artist great, not only are the song and video great, but…wait for it…I’m bringing him to the Arden Gild Hall on Friday, May 10. He’s literally a one-man band […]
Trenchant Cohen Testimony Analysis
Cohen’s testimony means nothing. It is a fart in the wind. It all comes down to Americans turning up at the polls on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, and voting out Republicans and oligarchs at every level. From County governments to the White House. Everything that doesn’t involve voting in actual human beings bullshit.
Meanwhile India/Pakistan tensions rise as bombings, reprisal attacks beset Kashmir
Wednesday’s aerial attacks across the Line of Control (LoC) dividing Indian and Pakistani territory in Kashmir are the first since a war in 1971. The incident, in which Pakistan said it had shot down two military jets, has escalated tensions between the two nations, both of whom claim all of Kashmir, but control only parts […]
Cohen Testimony Open Thread
What a shock. The hearing starts off with the Rethugs trying to table the scheduled hearing. Specifically Mark Meadows and Jim Jordan. The same Rethugs who whitewashed all of Trump’s sins when they controlled the committee. The motion fails. We’re on to Elijah Cummings’ opening statement.
Song of the Day 2/27: Randy Newman with Mark Knopfler, “It’s Money That Matters”
You say you’re confused by life in modern America? Let Mr. Randy Newman explain things for you. With the help of Mr. Mark Knopfler, he will decode the mystery of why we find ourselves where we are. Spoiler alert: It has something to do with who we are. For those who liked the Queen video […]
Rep. Matt Gaetz Threats Against Cohen Accomplished Their Purpose
When lunatic, Trump fanboy, Rep. Matt Gaetz, went on Twitter yesterday to explicitly threaten Michael Cohen the point wasn’t to scare Cohen out of testifying. Don’t be silly. The point was to give Fox News personalities some talking points.
Gaetz did his job, like a good little trumper.
3 GOP Senators Set to Vote Against Trump’s Bogus National Emergency – 3 More Wavering
Via CNN, voting in favor of the Constitution are: North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis (R)Here’s a bit of what he wrote in a Washington Post op-ed announcing the decision: “As a U.S. senator, I cannot justify providing the executive with more ways to bypass Congress. As a conservative, I cannot endorse a precedent that I […]
Biden is Running – No Suspense Left
Family on board, and staffing up. The March 16th announcement is a formality. Former Vice President Joe Biden said that he’s “very close” to making a decision on whether to run in 2020 now that his family is on board. “The most important people in my life want me to run,” Biden said during a […]
