Agent Orange hovers above us as a cloud of fatal poison. I speak not of the chemical weapon. I speak, instead, of our President. His various atrocities are destroying our country just as surely as that biological system devastated Vietnam. Any exercise in listing his disgraceful behaviors would be counterproductive. It’s like the way James … Continue reading Where He Wants Us To Live

It’s All About the Brand, ’bout the Brand, ’bout the Brand
It’s all about the brand. There are two present examples that demonstrate the truth of this assertion. One has been where branding has been used to great effect, and this is by the bad guys – the Republicans. The other is where branding has been used to horrible effect, and that’s by the good guys … Continue reading It’s All About the Brand, ’bout the Brand, ’bout the Brand
Trump’s Other “Peace Deals”
We now know the terms of the “Deal” that the self-proclaimed master of the “Art of the Deal” has negotiated with Iran. Nothing really gained by the Great Negotiator and a lot of concessions made. It has to make you wonder what kind of “Deals” he would have made in order to end some of our … Continue reading Trump’s Other “Peace Deals”
Some Stuff That Just Might Happen
With so many of today’s actual events sounding as if they were made up by someone who’d just gobbled down too many gummies, it is hard to know what really is happening and what isn’t. Pretty soon, we may even see these reports: Today, President Donald J. Trump claimed victory in his war with Iran. He … Continue reading Some Stuff That Just Might Happen
The Donroe Doctrine is a Crime
“A republic is the best form of government, a government of laws, not arbitrary rule. John Adams In the aftermath of our country’s usurpation of the sovereignty of the Venezuelan independent state, it is time to remember John Adams’s above quote. The MAGA defenders of the invasion of Venezuela certainly have forgotten it, if they … Continue reading The Donroe Doctrine is a Crime
Hey Kash – Follow the Real Cash
Everybody has heard about the criminal charges against some basketball players. They are charged with giving out inside information about how other players were (or were not) going to play. Then, of course, they are alleged to have used that information to make money. The Justice Department made a big deal out of this. Televised … Continue reading Hey Kash – Follow the Real Cash
The “I” Word
MAGA has made it toxic to merely mention the “I” word – “Impeachment.” They have so often and so viciously condemned the prior Impeachments of Orange Julius (“O.J.”) that suggesting we go through it again will necessarily be greeted with guffaws. Well, fuck them. It is time to again consider Impeachment and as a real … Continue reading The “I” Word
A Few Conclusions for a Few Questions
Which Way to Patriotism? Do you root for Orange Julius (“OJ”) to succeed? In other words, when he does something that he says is going to help the country, do you hope it actually does help or hope that it doesn’t? I’m sure you’ve gone through the thought process: success would be good for OJ … Continue reading A Few Conclusions for a Few Questions

The Future is the Past
We thought it was bad enough that the MAGA’s wanted to take us back to the 1950’s. After all, that was when America was great wasn’t it? That was when America was king and when men were men, and women and “Negroes” knew their places. That, we thought was what MAGA wanted. Oh, baby, we … Continue reading The Future is the Past
