Yahoo, Good News!

Keith Olbermann: ‘I’m Coming Out Of Retirement’ The broadcaster ripped into Donald Trump, perhaps foreshadowing what he’d do if he returns to the airwaves. The guy that got into trouble for blasting The Donald, right after he'd gotten in trouble for ripping GWBush and The Dick, is coming back. Yahoo!. Someone who's not afraid to tell the truth, even if it hurts the rightwingnuts. Just who we need, now that Jon Stewart has left The Daily Show. Keith Olbermann, a guy after my own heart, telling the Pubs to kiss his ass. I LOVE IT! How/when/where you coming back, big guy? We'll be waiting and watching.....

Susan Sarandon prefers Donald Trump over 'status quo' Hillary Clinton presidency

Image
is the FOX headline, but it's total bullshit, like most of FOXNews. Susan Sarandon came under 'heavy fire' from all corners, esp w/Jaime Lee Curtis and Debra Messing, after the Bullshit Mountain headline/story appeared, yesterday. I myself thought, 'WTF?, that is SO unlike her. She's intelligent'.... Today, Sarandon made it VERY clear, she would NEVER vote for Trump. FOX 'news' just got the headline/story wrong. Wow, who da thunk the brainiacs at FOX would screw up like that? Susan Sarandon   ✔ ‎@SusanSarandon Of course I would never support Trump for any reason. If you watch the interview you'll see that's not what I said.

I'm used to reading some real crap on FOX,

Image
but this is 'over the top', even for the clowns of Bullshit Mountain. An airport with a layout shaped like a swastika and creepy death murals has been labeled one of the spookiest on the planet. Did you know the 'Swastika Shaped', (FOX never shared the image) Denver International Airport is 'Pure Evil'? Yup, according to the brain trust at FOXNews, there are MANY signs that point to a huge conspiracy, and a 'takeoever' by some unknown, evil forces. Just when I thought FOXBullshit couldn't get any deeper... To many the pictures true agenda were hints at a "New World Order." Others point to masonic symbols scattered around the airport including a huge stone in the airport’s Great Hall. The presence of gargoyles is also said to demonstrate that something evil is lurking. So what is the true purpose of Denver International Airport, if not to usher travelers in and out of Colorado? Some conspiracy theorists claim it is a giant milit...

Yahoo, Tim Tebow has a new calling

He's gonna run for office(R), cuz he has SO much experience, which doesn't matter to the rightwingnuts, BUT he has HUGE name recognition, and he is totally conservative. Done deal for the wingnuts. He'll probably be president, if The Donald doesn't win first. Sickening, but SO Republican. No experience? No problem! Yahoo! Vote Republican!

The rightwingnuts are attacking

the 'will of the voters', something they love to bitch about, until THEY do it. Colorado voters approved recreational pot sales, by a large majority, and over 2 years later, even MORE voters support it. BUT, the rightwingnuts are trying to do a 'back door; end run' by trying to limit the potency of pot, setting it way below current levels. Same old shit from the same bad actors. Try to bend the rules, so they can force their standards on the majority. Yup, send smokers to prison, cuz the jerks (R) think they think all people should live by their rules. Nothing new here, but typical of the bullshit they try to 'enforce' on those who don't agree. And you wonder why the Pubs are a 'dying breed?' Good riddance...

I'm claiming FOX/PARP

sabotaged my computer, cuz they don't like Aunty FOX. As of now, I can't access/post 'images' for my blog. It all started with my 'anti-FOX' images, and got worse, from there. Some kind of 'anti-lib' virus I'm thinking... Will try to fix it, but Bullshit Mountain is VERY devious, as they will do anything to keep the wool over the sheep's eyes. Ignorance is bliss in FOXWorld, and the sheep are VERY blissful...

This just in, from FOX/PARP

The three remaining Pub candidates, who just recently made a solemn vow, to support their party's choice for prez, all 'changed their minds'. HA. Who da thunk? Why would anyone want to go to Cuba? And why WOULDN'T you want to go to North Carolina? (the gay-bashing state)? Really. That was their question, 'Judge' Andrew Napolitano would be an EXCELLENT choice for the Supreme Court. What? Isn't Judge Judy available? The denial of climate change boils down to the rights of mankind vs the oligarchy that owns oil, coal and vast holdings of dirty energy, and those who profit from their use. (Just kidding, that wasn't from FOX) The debates between Sanders and Clinton have been inspirational; to see such intelligence, dignity and substance is a tribute to both of them, in contrast to the banality and stupidity of the Repub candidates has been stunning. It's as if there are two separate universes. One where the earth is flat and one where it is round; On...

Good article today

HRC is one of the most qualified candidates for the presidency in modern times, as was Al Gore. We cannot forget what happened when the election was stolen from Gore by Florida Republicans, GW Bush was elected and became arguably the worst president in American history. Bush lied us into a war that still plagues us today; he authorized massive tax cuts for the rich and corporations; abandoned the Middle East peace process; ushered in the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression and totally neglected the climate emergency. All made possible by the fantasy votes for Ralph Nader. Hmmm, something to remember before 'writing in' a Bernie Sanders vote, IF he's not the nominee.

Good news/bad news for the HOT

Denver real estate market. Good news if you have a house, not so good if you don't, but want one. DENVER AREA Home prices continue streak of double-digit gains By Aldo Svaldi  The Denver Post Metro Denver home prices rose 10.2 percent in January, marking the 12th consecutive month of double-digit annual price increases, according to the latest update of the S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices.

Am watching the first of this year's 'Deadliest Catch'

Image
and the (crab fishing) captains are all having to deal with the warmest waters they've ever seen, and they have to come up with new fishing strategies (deeper and further north), while Rush and Sean and the rest of the Repub jerks say it's all a Lib plot. You tell these guys, Sig, Jake, Andy and Keith that science is stupid, but FOX knows what's going on. Same old crap from Bullshit Mountain vs reality. Nothing new here, as Pub bullshit competes with the real world, and the sheep are always on the wrong side. RU kidding me???? Is it any wonder why the anti-science, anti-women, anti-minority, anti-gay, anti-immigrant, anti-reality. pro-war, pro-propaganda/bullshit GOP is sinking like a stone? It's called evolution....

Wow, finally a FOX headline I agree with

FOOD STAMP CRACKDOWN States push to require able-bodied adults to work for welfare benefits

Big Day, here at the homestead

Finally had to replace the recliner I moved here, 18 years ago. Have no idea how it wore out, cuz I hardly ever sit in it.... But, got a new one today, and it's kinda good/bad. Kinda comfortable, but different. Maybe I can get used to it. We'll see...

AGAIN, I say

The Repubs are such a-hole/jerks for running the ads showing guns (shotgun and hunting rifle) being confiscated from a gun safe, cuz the Dems are gonna 'Take Your Guns'. Such bullshit, but SO Republican, as they lie to the low-info voters. Should be illegal, but the Pubs have made it legal to LIE and Buy Votes. Nothing new, but sickening, just the same... Can't wait for them to disappear into the trash bin of history, where they belong, and it's not that far away. Good riddance...

WOW, FOXNews had a revolutionary headline,

that is gonna SHOCK the sheep. ISIS is the enemy, America -- not Obama, Hillary or Bush Wow, not sure how that's gonna play on Bullshit Mountain, or where it came from, but is this a sign of a bit of cranial/rectal separation? Let me be clear: the blame for the rise of ISIS falls at the feet of both Republicans and Democrats. President George W. Bush got us into Iraq in the first place, and on faulty information.  Just a couple thoughts here, it WASN'T faulty info, and the Dems really had nothing to do with it, other than believing the lies from the War Criminals, Bush and Cheney. Let's just 'Keep it Real'....

This just in...

The Pubs have recived thousands of letters of support, after saying they wanted to carry guns at the RNC convention. They were mostly from Democrats.

Wow, a sign of sanity?

Image
Or do these guys just feel their testicles in a vice. As someone once said, 'When you have 'em by the balls, their hearts and minds will follow'. Very enjoyable, watching the demise of a once proud, formerly relevant political party, after the Tea Party WRECKED it. Good riddance. Supreme Court fight: Quarter of Republican senators now back meetings for Merrick Garland ARI MELBER Mar 29th 2016 5:19AM

Interesting article in NYT today,

Image
about women being treated as 'niche' voters. BUT, it's because Repub men have seen fit force their Old Testament views, (repression) upon half the population. As many have said, if men could get pregnant, the laws would be TOTALLY different, but they can't so we get the Moral Majority (HA!) closing Planned Parenthood clinics, and the birth control it provides, cuz a small % of their work has to do with abortion. TGhen, the same idiots(R) bitch cuz welfare costs go up paying for 'unplanned for' children. Bottom line, the Pubs (led by the religious old white guys) need to get out of the business of legislating morality, (their version) and 'get real' about female and gay issues. Nothing new here, but it gets SO old, as they wonder why their party is going the way of the dinosaurs...

They(R) are doing it again,

Image
here in Colorado. The Pubs are running a BUNCH of TV ads, showing the Dems literally taking guns, (a shotgun and a rifle, from a gun safe), saying they(D) will leave you with NOTHING to defend yourself! No Shit. Who believes this crap? Oh yeah, the FOX sheep. Are you kidding? WHO will actually come after our guns? Oh yeah, Obama.... What a bunch of idiots.... But nothing new, in FOXWorld.

Last Sat night

I saw parts of the movie, 'The Ten Commandments', which I hadn't seen for a LONG time. As I watched it, I remember thinking, when I was a kid, 'Why can't the pharaoh, Yul Brynner see what's real? Now I watch it and think, 'Wow, that whole story is really UNreal, who can't see this?', sorta like Santa Claus and the Easter bunny, as seen from an adult view, vs a kid. Again, not saying anything against spirituality, which is VERY real, (I hope), vs a literal Bible, or the movie 'The Ten Commandments'. which is a collection of Hollywood produced 'miracles'. True it helps people get through the fears of their daily lives, as long as they don't look TOO close. Nothing new here, unless you've never looked at the difference, between reality and myth.

Yahoo Georgia finally came around,

and NC may be next, as the rightwingnuts who claim being gay is a 'choice', were finally forced by big business, incl Coca Cola, Disney, Microsoft etc, who threatened to pull out of the state, unless the Pubs change their state laws, OR, lose major revenue. Typical Bible Belt Bullshit, who FINALLY saw the light, when they were faced with losing BIG $$$. Same old crap from Repubs, who pander to the rightwingnuts, until they get hit in the wallet, by reality. Sickening, but SO Republican. Remember when YOU had to choose? RU kidding????

What a great day

Image
Had the kids, incl Piper, over for dinner and a wonderful time was had by all. Is so nice to have them close. Grampa did a good job of hiding eggs. Not too hard and not too easy. Amazing comeback by Syracuse over Virginia to make it to the Final Four, after being down by 16. One of the most amazing b-ball turn arounds since Kearney came back from 17 down in the third quarter, to beat Columbus in the Big Ten Championship, circa 1967. Seems like yesterday....

Good article, this Easter morning, from NYT

Belief without doubt would not be required by an all-loving God, and it should not be worn as a badge of honor. Any honest atheist must admit that he has his doubts, that occasionally he thinks he might be wrong, that there could be a God after all — if not the God of the Judeo-Christian tradition, then a God of some kind. Nathaniel Hawthorne said of Herman Melville, “He can neither believe, nor be comfortable in his unbelief; and he is too honest and courageous not to try to do one or the other.” Dwelling in a state of doubt, uncertainty and openness about the existence of God marks an honest approach to the question. There is no easy answer. Indeed, the question may be fundamentally unanswerable. Still, there are potentially unpleasant consequences that can arise from decisions or conclusions, and one must take responsibility for them. Anyone who does not occasionally worry that he may be a fraud almost certainly is. People who claim certainty about God worry me, both...

Quote of the day,regarding the 2 leading Pub candidates

The Greaseball says, 'Trump is a rat and I have no desire to copulate with him'. Just when you think they can't get any lower/slimy/despicable, the Pubs never fail to sink like a stone, to depths below whale shit.

I've just figured a way,

Image
to add 40 yards to my drive. I'm gonna get some FOXNews golf balls, with a pic of Sean Hannity on one side. I'm thinking I can increase my swing speed to MAX, and gain a bunch of yardage. Yup, could work with The Greaseball just as well, but I don't think he's gonna be around all that long.

Some people look at my e-mail address

Image
and laugh, (ha ha, old fart) cuz I've stayed with AOL, but, even if it weren't for a LOT of good features, I think the $5.99/month is worth it, just for their 'state of the art' anti-virus protection, that is updated daily. While many people I know have been hacked with NASTY stuff, I've been fortunate, plus I always use a Toshiba laptop, which is bulletproof. (Knock on wood). Just a thought, cuz I heard a snicker about old farts and AOL. Works for me, for a reason....

After FOX bitched about Obama doing 'nothing' against ISIS,

Image
US forces took out their #2 guy, as I mentioned in an earlier blogpost, WHILE Bullshit Mountain 'talent' was bitchin' Well, FOXCrap finally acknowledged it on their website, (along with other ''Impotent Obama stories), but their headline reads, ' The West Takes Out ISIS Leader', when it was US Special Forces. Sleazeballs. FOX/PARP is nothing but a collection of sleazeball jerks, total a**holes. Who believes this crap? Never mind, you know who you are, and know exactly where to go, to get the crap you love, instead of reality.

Just learned this morning, that we were part of a 'record'

Image
The heavy wet snowfall, over 20" here, took out a bunch of power lines, and over 300,000 people were without power in the Denver area, which was a record. And, several thousand are STILL without power, two days later. I can't imagine what an inconvenience that would be, for some people. We have 2 gas fireplaces and a gas range, plus a generator, and it was still a major pain in the butt. I imagine some folks are really hurting. Reminds me of 'Lights Out', by Ted Koppel, that explains how vulnerable our nation's electric grids are to being hacked. According to Ted and several experts in the field, it's not a matter of IF, but When it happens, and we're talking months, not days, to get it back on. I had sorta forgotten the urgency I felt to be 'Be Prepared', but after 30 hours without electricity, I'm treating it like a dry run, for the Big Event. I sure hope not, but in this time of terrorism and hacking, why WOULDN'T our enemies try to ...

I wonder if the sheep even notice,

Image
the extreme irony that occasionally occurs on Bullshit Mountain, like this morning. Cuz the markets were closed, I was channel surfing and caught a bit of FOX/PARP, where they were bitchin' about Obama not using America's resources and military to go after ISIS. "It's like he doesn't care', was the quote, right before they broke in with 'Breaking News', that announced the second in command of ISIS, their main money man, along with a bunch of fighters had just been killed in a raid. The Sec of Defense had a news conference, detailing the success of that raid and several other major milestones. They then returned to the 'talent' at FOXCrap, where the first thing they asked, concerning the dead ISIS guy, was, 'Does this make a difference?', and the talking head said 'NO, they'll just replace him with someone else'. A PERFECT example of 'no matter WHAT Obama does, it's WRONG', and the Pubs would be SO much better,...

Just when I thought they(R) couldn't get any lower,

Image
with the Pub candidates bitchin' about how America, under Obama, has  LOST the 'war on terror' cuz Europe was attacked (while we have done REAL WELL under Obama/Dems), The Donald and The Greaseball are now targeting the looks of each other's wives. Lyin' Ted started it, trying to win the Mormon vote in Utah, and now that Trump has joined in, Mr Sleaze says 'it's not fair or nice', as he tries to look tough on TV, while he's losing. Wow, just when you think they(R) can't get any lower, or more ridiculous, they(R) always do. The thought of one of these clowns being PRESIDENT of the United States makes my skin crawl and stomach turn.

Yahoo! Power's back on

A long 30 hours, but at least we had a generator. I thought a power surge had blown TV, but the surge protector itself blew. Coulda been worse. And, we finally got the driveway scooped, which was a real job. My snowblower can only handle about 12", but we had about twice that. Oh well, coulda been a lot worse...

In an epic case of brain freeze,

Image
or more probably just chronic stupidity, Rudy Giukiani accused Hillary of creating ISIS. Oh really? Who was it that blasted the crap out of that paart of the world cuz they had WMD's, and totally unstabilized the area? Oh yeah, that would be GW and The Dick(R), to get their $140/barrel oil. But, at least Giuliani is consisitent, as in always being partisan jerk, without a clue. In other 'news', FOX/PARP is bitchin' cuz Obama danced in Argentina, after repeated attempts to say no, cuz he SHOULD be in Belgium with a shovel? 

24 hours after our electricity went out,

it's still off. We were running the TV and cable box with generator, but had some fluctuating current, and it blew both of them. Sharp smell of singed elec wires in the air, and neither will turn on. Got around 21" of heavy wet snow, but sky is clear, blue and the sun is shining, but would really like to elec come on. This is getting old. At least we have generator and wireless router so have internet. Could be worse. Just need to get Carol off her lazy butt to make a run for more beer....

Wow! What a snowstorm!

Image
They predicted 1-3". We woke up to 13", and no electricity. Still don't have any, but recently read 'Lights Out', byt Ted Koppel, and got my Honda generator (see pic) all tuned and put in a supply of gas. Now have it running and powering up wireless router, charging cell phones, and running the TV and cable. Have computer, gas stove, and fireplace, and plenty of food and drink, SO, we gonna be fine. Talked w/the kids and Kari's upset she's wasting a snow day during spring break. Nate has over 2 ft of snow and it's still snowing, like here. Will check in on neighbors soon, esp if we go into the evening w/no power. I-70 and DIA are shut down and probably will be for a while. Am thinking electricity's gonna be out for quite a while, cuz the tree limbs are taking out power lines all over. Now have over 15" snow (click on pic to enlarge yardstick) and can't see across the fairway. Carol's ready to fix a pitcher of Marguerita's. O...

Flipping thru the channels

I saw 'The Fall of Saigon', the exclamation point of the idiocy of the Viet Nam War, where repubs killed tens of thousands of young Americans, (like me) for their bullshit profits. Just like Iraq. Who supports these jerks? Oh yeah. FOXNews sheep. Nothing new here, but sometimes it all comes home, like tonight's TV show about the fall of Viet Nam, that so many have forgotten, like Iraq.

FOX/PARP is bitchin',

cuz Obama went to a US/Cuban b-ball game, after the Brussels bombing. RU kidding? That's what terrorism is all about. As always the Pubs don't have a clue, as they shovel money to BIG military projects, while the real enemy is small cell terrorist groups. Nothing new here, as the Pubs politicize a tragedy, that is nothing but religious zealots. 

The Pubs are claiming,

Kasich could beat Hillary, Even IF, they could make him their candidate, Trump would go third party, and Hillary would point out that his main 'claim to fame' of a balanced Ohio budget, was because of 3 things. The MAIN reason, by far, was the windfall of gas/oil taxes, created by fracking, and newly found oil/gas deposits. Second, was a huge gain in auto mfg, after the rescue. that the Pubs fought, cuz it was SOCIALISM! And, he dumped a bunch of state programs on towns and counties that couldn't afford them. That's his 'genius' economic record. BUT, he's the best of the bunch, when you look at The Greaseball and The Donald. Yahoo...

It's really VERY obvious

Image
what the 10th amendment says. BUT, the rightwingnuts who are always screaming about THE CONSTITUTION! want to override it, with Big Govt. They (OK, NE) want the Supreme Court to overturn Colorado law, cuz they don't like it. Thankfully, SCOTUS ruled otherwise (6-2), with OF COURSE Alito and Clarence Thomas objecting. For the rightwingnuts who don't understand the Constitution, here's the 10th amendment, which is LAW, in our country, whether they approve, or NOT. The  Tenth Amendment  ( Amendment X ) to the  United States Constitution , which is part of the  Bill of Rights , was ratified on December 15, 1791. [1]  It expresses the principle of  federalism , which strictly supports the entire plan of the original Constitution for the United States of America, by stating that the  federal government  possesses only those powers delegated to it by the United States Constitution. All remaining powers are reserved for the states or the people. ...

This should be required reading

for everyone who thinks, 'What the hell happened to the Repub Party?' http://www.huffingtonpost.com/richard-north-patterson/an-open-letter-to-my-repu_b_9497274.html It begins as: Dear Cherished Friends, The Republican Party has become intellectually and morally bankrupt, a mockery of its traditions — corrosive to our society, our civility, and our capacity to govern. This is not a temporary condition; it is woven into the fabric of the party. This is not simply about Donald Trump. For Trump is not the result of forces which will come and go, but of a deterioration within the Republican Party that has been accelerating for years. The GOP has become a Frankenstein monster, assembled from dysfunction, demagoguery, myopia and myth, nurtured in a fever swamp where lies and hysteria kill off reason. Nothing better will arise until you help drive a stake through its heart.

Wow, here's a shocker

Most Republicans Feel Embarrassed by Campaign, Poll Says    Who da thunk that a party that is SO superior, (in their own minds, contrary to facts and statistics about income and education) could be taken over by a carnival barker, spouting racist, bullying, totally unrealistic crap? Anyone who sees what the GOP has devolved into, that's who, as all their warts and flaws have been exposed and subjected to near universal ridicule. A party dominated by the Southern Bible Belt, anti-science, racist, Tea Party crackpots deserves just what it gets. Surprise, that's how evolution works, whether you believe in it or not. It's all about survival of the fittest, and worthless crap gets left by the wayside, as the world moves on. Good riddance.... In other news.. The same Pubs who rail against the EPA, threatening to eliminate the agency completely, are now bitchin' the loudest about the lead in Flint's water system Just what is it you understand about Environmental PROT...

The Belgium bombing was sad enough,

seeing the innocent lives that were destroyed because of religious zealots, (my God's better than yours) but it was even more personal because we have been to that train station, after taking the EuroStar train through the Chunnel from London. But I went from sadness to anger when The Greaseball(R) made it all political, blaming Obama for the tragedy, cuz he has been 'weak on terrorism', and the US has been going downhill for the last 7 years, cuz of his 'lack of leadership'. Just seeing that ugly face turns my stomach, but when he starts spewing his vile dogma it makes my blood boil. This is 'The Great White Hope' of the Bullshit Mountain sheep? You gotta be kidding....

This just in

The jerks in NE and OK, just need to deal with it, and enjoy the extra revenue, from all their bullshit pot busts.... SCOTUS won’t hear case on Colorado pot legalization The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined to hear Nebraska and Oklahoma’s proposed lawsuit against Colorado’s legal marijuana laws. The 6-2 vote means the nation’s highest court will not rule on the interstate dispute, and Colorado’s legal cannabis market is safe. 

If you need to see the DIFFERENCE

Image
between Dems and Pubs, just look at the new US/Cuba relationship, after over 50 years. The Pubs say 'screw 'em, take it or leave it', just like they do in Congress. The Dems/Obama say, 'Hey, let's talk about it', and make progress. SO typical of the Pubs vs realism from the Dems. If I need to explain it, you wouldn't understand it. Nothing new here, in the HUGE difference between Repubs and reality. They've cost our country SO much, (think Iraq, Crash of 2008, Trump, Cruz, etc). Speaking of a**holes, here's another fave of the uneduc/uninformed masses.

I was gonna

Image
blog about the ridiculousness/stupidity of Trump/Cruz/Repubs, BUT, after a while it's like flogging a dead horse. Not that I won't so more of it (oh yeah, definitely), but after a while it's just not funny and it's too easy. There are SO many examples of the 'OMG!, how can people fall for this crap', but, when you're dealing with FOXSheep and 'literal Bible believers', it's hard (impossible) to use logical/rational thought as an argument. That train 'left the station' long ago. SO, it's just a wating game now, and the only question remaining is IF the Pubs can keep the House and/or Senate. I'm claiming the presidency(D) is a given, probably the Senate goes Dem with a very good chance of returning the House to sanity, also. Just imagine what can be done without the Party of NO!, screwing up everything. We can only hope. Have never looked forward to November (except pheasant season, as a kid) like I am this year. GO DONALD!

Check out the new 30 second political ad,

coming soon your TV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_eTKSzoAUY&feature=youtu.be

As always on Sat. morning

Image
there was no 'real' news, so I peeked at FOX to get my blood flowing, and saw them bitchin' that the Dems say they are for jobs, BUT, they are trying to shut down coal. The 'talent' at Bullshit Mountain thought this was criminal, cuz coal is SO important for employing the hillbillies. They don't understand that a few 'lousy' ( can you imagine being a coal miner?) jobs, that pollute air, water and the land aren't worth saving, when green energy creates SO many more. Sure we need SOME coal, but natural gas is SO much cleaner and more efficient. Don't tell the bozos at FOX though, cuz coal mining is the future, for the uneducated(R) masses of their Bible Belt Base. Can you say 'Black Lung?' If you ever wonder about Pub's over-all intelligence, just look at their fave for prez. Case closed. GO DONALD!

Yahoo for Cruz,

he's got Mitt and the Mormons (with their Magic Underwear) behind him. (Joseph Smith rocks!). All the conservative thumpers agree. The Greaseball is our man! Big deal, they may get 35% of the vote, if they're lucky. Thankfully, that's nowhere close to a majority, but the rightwingnuts are excited. Talk about an UNholy alliance. OMG! Scary,and SO rightwing, as they try to unite behind the most hated man in Congress. We saw this before, when all the thumpers got behind GW and The Dick. Remember?

Wow, went from 70 degrees,

to 10" of snow, in a couple days. From golf to ski season. We totally blew it, having Nate and Laura's condo, and we decided it was too stormy. Missed 2 feet of new snow. BUT, spring skiing is now officially starting. Gotta love Colorado, for SO many reasons....

I just realized, I have come over

Image
to McTurtleface's point of view. I think the next prez should nominate/appoint the SCOTUS replacement for Mr Most Conservative, Antonin Scalia. I think Merrick Garland is too conservative, himself. Let Donald nominate Judge Judy, OR, let Hillary nominate someone who is MUCH more Liberal than Merrick. Rather than hurry the process, cuz the Party of HELL NO!, is just gonna obstruct, cuz that's who they are and what they do, just be patient and let Hillary fill the position. I can't wait to see the losers(R) say, OMG!, we could have had Merrick....

Proving they truly are

The Party of Hell NO!, Republican leaders vowed again that they would not hold hearings or a confirmation vote this year even if a Democrat wins the White House in November. Yup, after saying 'the people should decide', (which we did TWICE, by electing Obama), the jerks(R) vow to NOT listen to the people, AGAIN. Nothing new here, but how obvious can you get?

Something I wanna hear

From every Pub I know. Yup, we're the smart ones, and our choice is Trump, followed by Cruz. Case closed...

During timeouts in the NCAA tourney

I checked in on FOXBullshit, and heard Newt and Hannity talking about how they are gonna beat the Dems. Their main plan? Hillary gets indicted by the FBI. RU shitting me? This is reality for the sheep? Nothing new, BUT, what are these people smoking? Gotta be something stronger than we have here in Colorado. Who believes this crap? Oh yeah, the sheep, cuz that's their last gasp, for the Pubs to win, in their Bizarro world. Is a triple digit IQ illegal for them? They actually believe Bullshit Mountain? At least they are fun to watch and laugh at, if you are not a FOXSheep. RU kidding? How do those people survive, in the modern world? Plain old cannon fodder, that does have a use...

It's hard to keep it inside,

as I see the Party of NO!, imploding/exploding on every level. Not a surprise, for anyone with a brain, which excludes the FOXSheep, BUT, it is SO much fun. Sorta like a Cubs fan watching Chicago win a World Series. Love to say 'I told you so?' Bottom line, who COULDN'T see this coming? Oh yeah, the sheep. In the same vein, on the 'real' news tonight, Tylenol is shown to be worthless. Worse than a placebo. Duh, who da thunk? Have you, or anyone you know ever said, 'Yup, that Tylenol really works". Sorta like, 'Yup, FOXNews is really Fair and Balanced, and the Pubs ae gonna win, this fall.' Nothing new here, but there are some things SO obvious that even a sheep can see. Never mind...

If you ever wonder(ed),

Image
how smart the Repubs are? Look at their favorites. Trump and The Greaseball. Case closed.

Everyone knows, Repubs are HUGE liars,

but the Pubs don't care, cuz they are used to it, from FOX. Here are 10 of the WORST Pub lies, that the sheep accept and believe. http://thedailybanter.com/2014/03/the-top-10-most-egregious-republican-lies/ Check it out, I double dog dare you. insane type lies, that only the sheep believe. If you wonder how The Donald could lead the Pubs? Look at the crap they accept/believe. Insane, but SO Republican...

Watching the news tonight,

I see that Dallas was just hit by a HUGE hailstorm. This would have gotten my heart a thumpin', when I was a disaster insurance adjuster. It would have meant a couple months of work, that would have been a 'very good year' for income. Gotta admit I kinda miss it, cuz there aren't many jobs where you can average a couple a grand a day, and do REALLY good some days. The bad news? You gotta live in Texas, which hurts your brain AND body. High school dropout? No problem, you can be a cop, in Texas. Like to breathe refinery smog while you sit in endless traffic jams? You'll love Texas. Like to be surrounded by Rednecks who get their 'news' from FOX? Texas is for you. Love to support GWBush and his stupid wars? You'll fit right in, in Texas. Think college is for wimps and Jr High equals higher education? You're gonna love Texas. If you worship Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity? Are you in luck, in Texas. Bottom line, wanna step back in time and intellige...

The next time a lyin' Pub

tells you the Dems NEVER did/would confirm a SCOTUS choice, in the last year of a Pub's presidency, show them this quote, from Reagan's last year, with a Dem Congress. They're just a bunch of lying jerks. Kennedy Sworn As 104th Justice On High Court By STUART TAYLOR Jr., Special to the New York Times Published: February 19, 1988 FACEBOOK TWITTER GOOGLE+ EMAIL SHARE PRINT REPRINTS WASHINGTON, Feb. 18—  Anthony McLeod Kennedy took his two oaths as the 104th Justice of the Supreme Court today, in separate ceremonies at the Court and the White House.

Make America grate again. Sorry, couldn't help it....

The Pubs love to bitch

and their bitches don't need to have any basis in fact. Along with "Obama has wrecked the economy', when it is MUCH better than the steaming pile that the Pubs left behind, they love to say, 'The Dems are gonna take your guns!, which is total bullshit. Another of their favorite lies: Obama is acting like a KING, with his executive orders! BUT, like most of their crap, it's easily refuted, with FACTS, as in Letters to the Editor in this morning's Denver Post. Do lies matter to the sheep? Of course not, they are fed FOXNews crap daily, and swallow it without thinking. Letter-writer Anne West repeats an often heard complaint from Republicans that President Obama is acting like a king because he has issued so many executive orders. According to The American Presidency Project, Obama has issued 231 executive orders in his 7.08 years in office. That will be about 261 in eight years. George W. Bush issued 291 and Ronald Reagan 381 in their eight years in office...

File it under, 'It sucks to be you',

The Pubs' heads must be spinning, as they face the reality of their demise. The obstructionists of the Party of NO!, who refuse to even consider a SCOTUS nominee are beginning to see the folly of their BS, as the rational side of their party (a SMALL,TINY minority) points out the fact that the moderate that Obama nominated is probably a much better choice for them than the Flaming Lib that Hillary will probably appoint. Even the densest of the dense, McTurtleface, should be able to grasp that simple fact, BUT, the party has shown no sense of rationality for a LONG time and I doubt they will now, as their chances of winning in Nov are less than The Dick Cheney winning a Humanitarian Award. And you wonder why they are rapidly approaching extinction, like the dodo birds they are? PS Some of the groups who have 'highly unfavorable' views of The Donald include, minorities, (esp the largest one), the young, the educated, women (well over half) and Democrats. Good Luck Donald...

It is SO funny, watching Bullshit Mountain,

Image
as they realize their future is THE DONALD. They choke and gag, knowing they don't have a chance to win, but if they do, it would be President Donald. You couldn't make this up, BUT, when you look at the last few years, with the Tea Party taking over the GOP, it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. When you appeal to the 'bottom of the barrel', don't be surprised when they answer the dog whistle, and support The Donald. I can remember when I thought this long political season was gonna be boring. HA! It's REALLY fun.... I only wish I could see the faces of a couple rightwingnuts I have butted heads with, over the years, who think they, and their party, are SO superior. I'd pay a LOT, to see their reactions, as their party crashes and burns, for MANY good reasons... Bottom line, for a political junkie like me, it just doesn't get any better than this, when evolution/Darwinism is proven. The party full of crap, turns into crap, and gets flushed away....

Just a coincidence?

The votes are counted, the results are in, AND, the happiest country in the world is,,,, Denmark, where they have exactly what Bernie wants, and the Pubs rail against. The govt provides health care for it's citizens, as well as a college education, for those who want it. OMG!, scream the Pubs, that's impossible!, but most of the top 10 happiest, most prosperous countries in the world (almost all in northern European) 'Just Do It'. and it works. It's amazing what you can do when you don't spend most of your country's money on a hugely bloated military, fighting stupid(R) wars. The same people(R) claim climate change is a hoax, but we've had TWO days, in the last 45, that were under the normal temp, here in Colorado, while Feb set an ALL TIME record for largest temp increase. But don't worry, Rush and Sean assure us it's all a Lib plot. WOW, just heard on FOXNews, that there may be shenanigans at the Pub convention, cuz, 'The party is so dam...

This explains a LOT

According to recent studies, Donald Trump's speeches have consistently maintained a 'fifth grade' level, which makes it easier for his 'low end' constituency to follow and understand. In a related thought, When you see the intelligence of an 'average' person, then realize half the people are even more stupid that that, it totally explains the appeal of The Donald, and the base of the Repub party. As George Carlin said, 'Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups'. And as HL Mencken said, 'No one ever lost money underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people', and Trump just proves these points, day after day, month after month, with the Republican voters. GO DONALD!

Good article in USA TODAY,

explaining that this year's presidential election should have been a slam-dunk for the Pubs. Deserved or not, there is general dissatisfaction with Hillary and the current administration. True, it's mainly because of unrelenting propaganda from FOXNews, but it's there. SO, who does the Repub electorate choose? Donald Trump, who doesn't stand a chance, BUT, with the backing of the low-info, trailer park mentality of the Pub base, he's driving the clown car. It could have been SO different, if the average Pub wasn't SO gullible, but they are, so it isn't, and the Dems just need to say 'Thank You'. for making it so easy. GO DONALD!

The Constitution clearly states

the president is REQUIRED to nominate a new member of the Supreme Court, and the jerks at FOXNews are always screaming the Consitution!  But, when the prez did his job, Bullshit Mountain reports it as 'Picking a Fight!'. Nothing new here, as it's just the same old shit from same old bullshitters. We'll follow the law, when it suits us,  and screw you, the rest of the time. It gets SO old...

I just realized my FAVORITE thing

Image
about The Donald. Nearly HALF the Pubs say they wouldn't vote for him, but he will be their nominee. SO, that means they stay home, and all the down-ballot Dems (Senate and House) win. YAHOO! Can you imagine how good this country can be without the Party of NO! screwing up EVERYTHING? Yay! GO DONALD!

As I check the results from Tuesday's voting,

Image
I occasionally look in on Bullshit Mountain, as they are having a 'come to Jesus' moment. Where they have been realistic before (Trump is WRECKING the GOP!), they are now facing the inevitability of his nomination and the clowns are saying to the sheep, "I think he can win", while they try to keep a straight face, knowing 70% of voters say NEVER, incl half of Repubs, concerning their self created monster. It is SO funny to watch them squirm and wiggle as they face the reality of The Donald carrying their colors on November. Can you say President Hillary?  BTW, this is SO much fun.... LOL PS When I first tuned into Bullshit Mountain I caught a speech from The Greaseball and I just about gagged, cuz he was talking like he WON, and I thought, 'no way'. He won NOTHING, but to hear him talk he was the big winner. HA. The Repub party = One Big Joke, that is rapidly going the way of the dinosaurs, for MANY good reasons....

As the early results come in,

Image
it's too early to call anything, but I realize that as bad as The Donald is, he's still my first choice, when compared to The Greaseball. The Dem nominee will kick ass with either of them, but just the thought of Cruz getting any more power makes me sick. It's the face you see in a nightmare, with that sleazy, greasy look. We'll see, BUT there is one pic I really like...

Trump must read my blog,

cuz two days after I said that when Ohio did well under John Kasich, it had nothing to do with him. He happened to be the gov where fracking opened HUGE energy deposits and Ohio reaped the rewards of being over pools of oil, just like Texas. Also, Ohio was the recipient of the resurgence of the auto industry, after Dems bailed it out, over the screams and objections of the Pubs who claimed it was 'Socialism'. Now, The Donald is saying the same thing I did, about Kasich, who claims to be such a great administrator, which is easy, when you get TONS of oil money, like Perry in Texas and Palin in Alaska. Who can't see through this crap? Oh yeah, the sheep....

The Pubs get funnier/sadder every day,

The Greaseball is now appealing to the same GOP that he openly fought. The most despised man in Congress, ('He could get shot in the Senate floor and NO ONE would vote to convict the shooter', said a fellow Repub) now thinks he can be president, with their help. LOL, cuz half the people (Dems) hate him even MORE, if that's possible.... What a slimeball, who shut down the govt, by himself, when Colorado needed SO much help after the devastating floods in 2013.

Although we're not always on the same page,

Image
I like Mark Cuban, owner of the Dallas Mavs NBA team and Shark Tank entrepreneur. When asked who he'd support, between The Donald and The Greaseball, he admitted he didn't really think Trump was presidential material, but he'd still take him over Cruz. Despite this criticism, he made it clear that he’d still vote for Trump over one candidate in particular: Senator Ted Cruz, whom Cuban called “the absolutely worst politician in Texas.” Cuban then seemed to reinforce his point by referring to a  comment  made by South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham in February, when he said: “If you killed Ted Cruz on the floor of the Senate, and the trial was in the Senate, nobody would convict you.” It’s not the first time Cuban has  offered  his unfiltered thoughts on both Cruz and Trump, at one point even  referring  to fellow billionaire Trump as guy who walks into a bar and “will say whatever it takes to get laid".

In keeping with my last post,

where I used THC balm to ease my elbow pain, I see today on CNBC, The Financial Channel, that GW Pharmaceuticals, a UK company that does research here in Colorado, (where the rightwingnuts(R) have lost power) developed a cannabis based drug that significantly reduced seizures in children suffering from epilepsy. This has been known, anecdotally, for quite a while with many families moving to our state to get medical marijuana, because the Repubs (who are against legalization, nearly EVERYWHERE) in their own state would jail them for providing help to their children. Same old shit from the same jerks. 'I don't like it, so YOU can't have it', BUT, they claim to hate big govt. Can you say hypocrites? If you don't like it FINE, don't use it, but don't force your views on everyone. The company that developed Epidiolex saw their stock rise over 100% when the clinical trial results were announced. I'm sure it's just the first of MANY new cannabinoid ba...

I have a bit of a background,

with cannabis. The Pubs wanted to send me to jail for enjoying it when they weren't trying to get me killed or wounded, in Viet Nam. These days, living in Colorado, where the will of the people outvoted Repub bullshit, I've had some chances to see what's real. Bottom line, I have chronic pain from a compound fracture, when my right elbow had a traumatic break, with my tibia breaking the skin. My mother fainted when she saw it, falling on me. Dr Elliot did a fantastic job, with pins and plastic. My arm worked for shooting basketballs, throwing darts, handling power tools and swinging golf clubs. BUT, I have developed a large bone spur that restricts movement and hurts. I use Advil and Tramadol sparingly, but one of the most reliable pain killers is THC infused balm. Legal in Colorado, and effective. Thanks Denny, for the recipe. Bottom line, it works, and it pisses me off that others can't use it, cuz the Pubs just don't get it. We'll look back on this, just l...

I'm starting to worry

what the Pubs are gonna do, as it becomes more obvious that they are being swept out of power in Washington. Keep in mind, these are the same 'patriots', (war criminals) who made hundreds of billions in 'Defense Contracts' as GW and The Dick started an illegal war, based on lies, (primarily to pump up the price of oil, TEN-FOLD) and they got tens of thousands of HUGE no-bid contracts to furnish the soldiers in Iraq with everything from MRE's (Halliburton) to Humvees (tens of thousands 'left behind'), not to mention LOTS of artificial limbs, plus all the VA costs and transportation/supply/rebuilding contracts. For what? What did we gain? Nothing,  UNLESS you were a Repub 'Defense' contractor, then you made a killing. In other words, Republican 'Pork'. They're not gonna let the Golden Goose, of military spending, and all the other lucrative contracts quietly slip away. They're gonna fight, tooth and nail (like they did against Soc ...
