I went to a concert at a synagogue the other night in celebration of Martin Luther King Day. To say that I do not often attend synagogue is like saying that Donald Trump does not often tell the truth. No, strike that. I go less often. I went this time because my sister-in-law is serving as … Continue reading MLK At The Synagogue

Mechanical Man
I can’t do shit. If I were left in the wild or even just lived in a place without ordinary conveniences, I couldn’t survive longer than it takes Donald Trump to tell another lie. I always knew this, but it was driven home to me all the more over the past few days. First, a guy … Continue reading Mechanical Man
Believe Me?
If our exalted Orange leader has destroyed anything more than our standing in the world it is our understanding of the truth. By constantly ignoring the reality in front of him, he has undermined even our typically slender knowledge of what is actually going on. I say “typically slender knowledge” because, really, what the fuck … Continue reading Believe Me?

Aren’t there limits to how unfair it can be? This week, we have heard from some of the Senators who will soon serve as “jurors.” Here’s what they’ve said. … Continue reading Mitch Kangaroo And His Court
A Dangerous Negative Pregnant
Reading over the Articles of Impeachment as released today, I am struck by the way the Democrats structured them. It seems to me that they made a mistake by allowing it to contain a negative pregnant. A Negative pregnant is not the result Trump hopes for from a test taken by one of his bimbos. … Continue reading A Dangerous Negative Pregnant
I’ll Say It If They Won’t
Why are the Democrats in Washington so reluctant to say that they hate Donald Trump. During their hearings, the ones on the Intelligence and Judiciary Committees were scrupulous to avoid saying any such thing. Nancy Pelosi even claimed that it was a violation of her religious convictions to say that. I would bet my house … Continue reading I’ll Say It If They Won’t
O.K. Boomer
My generation, the one they call the “boomers” did some really fucked up things. Look what we have wrought. Is there a better example of our failures than our President. We have been in charge of a generation of time that has produced and seated clearly the worst leader in our country’s history. And if that’s … Continue reading O.K. Boomer
