The Corporate News Network (CNN) and the Biden Slingshot

Yep, they're trying every trick in their deceptive toolbox to propel Smiley Joe Biden with the accusatory wagging finger into prominence. Go ahead, get Mr. Trump reelected. You'll do it one of two ways. By getting Berners and Independents to vote against Biden OR when Giuliani comes back with the Hunter dirt and America says "we've seen enough corruption" and sits it out unable to decide which is the lesser of the two evils, Smiley or Smirky. When the mainstream media loses journalistic integrity, we all lose, and don't think your tricks are not as evident as shit. Like last night when Marianne Williamson was talking about how she supports Bernie Sanders and was rudely interrupted by the host to go hear if Buttigieg and Biden were going to say something negative about Bernie during a live action event for Biden which was populated by a handful of supporters jammed into the corner of the building to imitate the semblance of a following. That would have been t...

Thank you ABC News for a positive on Cuba

Eyewitness News this morning ran a positive piece on how Cuba had recently made a few million selling a few boxes of her select cigars at an auction. This shows why ABC has won prestigious awards for journalistic excellence. Thank you Michelle Charlesworth and Mike Marza for great non-partisan reporting.  Amy Freeze is still the sexiest meteorologist on the small screen and her dress with wild flower print just says, "pick me, you fool." I do, I pick your flowers Amy--such fun. ;)  Best of luck to Rob Nelson on his new addition and, apparently, a new job. Bernie Sanders, don't change your position on Cuba. If you should lose Florida it'll be only because of vindictive Cubans there who love their status quo at the detriment of the poorer middle classes.

Dis, Dat, and Da Udder Ding

When Giuliani said "...as a woman," he touched himself on the chest. Wasn't he photographed in drag with the Donald? We have to be kind to America's Mayor, though, being that he felt the blow of one of the largest beams of the WTC on 9/11. You can see the lasting effects of that fateful day by noting how his chin extends below his collarbone. That, folks, is the result of massive blunt force trauma. We can only hope that his brain can, one day, re-inflate to functioning levels. To his comments that Stormy Daniels had less humanity than anyone else in mendacious DC, I say that I agree with Brianna Keilor that his profession is commonly viewed as one that gives less bang for the buck while also being one of the oldest. The problem with an indefinite Mueller probe is that it starts looking more and more like a fishing expedition. I want to condemn a man by one or two egregious and verifiable acts, not on a litany of bits and pieces waiting to be called immaterial in a ...

Ted Cruz: It's Always Sad when the Name is a Misnomer.

In legitimizing Ted Cruz' run for the U.S. presidency, people talk about Romney (born in Mexico) and McCain (Panama Canal Zone) and Barry Goldwater (born in Arizona before it was a state). All lost their presidential bid and that is reason enough for any major party to eschew the candidacy of the foreign born but one must try to understand the intent of the founding fathers and that intent is as clear as a pledge of allegiance. If a candidate is born elsewhere (I, BTW, would have added "and must have had a primary residence in the U.S. for their first 35 years of life and lived there for 9 months out of every one of those 35 years," to Article II), there is a greater chance of bias towards the nation of birth. It is not absolute but you are led to wonder what Germany would have done without the moustachioed Austrian and what France would have done without the Corsican. [Germany has done well especially with such things as Apple Corporation seeing fit to give her the lion...

Senator Menendez & Cuba Travel

[This is a response I received from Senator Menendez' office concerning his non-support of the Freedom to Travel to Cuba Act. My comments are in red .]   Dear Mr. and Mrs. Jimenez :   Thank you for contacting me regarding the Freedom to Travel to Cuba Act.  Your opinion is very important to me, and I appreciate the opportunity to respond to you on what, for me, is a principled issue.   The Freedom to Travel to Cuba Act would prohibit the President from regulating or prohibiting travel to or from Cuba by United States citizens or legal residents except in time of war or armed hostilities between the U.S. and Cuba.  I have been a lifelong advocate for democratic change in Cuba and have interacted with many of my colleagues in the Senate on these issues over the years.  Although I am opposed to recent efforts to loosen the embargo such as the Freedom to Travel to Cuba Act, I have worked with the Obama Administration in ho...
