Comedian Bill Maher says anyone who is disappointed our Chief Executive was not assassinated at the recent White House correspondent’s dinner is “not a good person.” For once, he is right. Maher is the little wise-ass kid sitting in class that tries too hard to be clever and makes jokes incessantly to avoid getting stuffedContinue reading “Check This Out”

Return to Glory
Hey, I’ve got an idea. What-say that before the next presidential election in 2028 we all get together and do a tap-tap-no-tap-back and start all over with no animosity for the sins of our fathers and erase the imaginary scoreboard that never seems to reset at zero? That way BOTH parties could get together andContinue reading “Return to Glory”
Look Around
The dominoes keep falling in DJT’s quest to completely disarm and destroy the armed forces of the United States of America. It’s all there. In The Tyrant’s Playbook. Look it up. Eliminate any possible threats to power. One way is to appoint entitled dumbass art-collecting billionaires to high-ranking government posts. Guys like Howard Lutnick whoContinue reading “Look Around”
Keeping it Real
He is either the smartest dumbass or the dumbest smartass occupying the seat of the second most powerful title in world politics, that would be Vice-President of the United States of America. He wasn’t satisfied just suckling at the breast of Donald Trump. He wanted more. He wanted to doom his eternal soul and hisContinue reading “Keeping it Real”
Jump in, the Water’s Fine.
Lurch, aka John Fetterman, squawks about everything else the republicans do, but he was (is) conspicuously silent on the president’s acceptance of 400 million dollars’ worth of Japanese steel for his unwanted renovations to the White House Ballroom. This on the heels of his promise to U.S. steel manufacturers to help their ailing industry. AllContinue reading “Jump in, the Water’s Fine.”
Stand Back!
China and Pakistan have seen enough… They want some. They are ready to bow up against the big bad United States of America, too. All Iran did when threatened with the total annihilation of their civilization was announce to their people, “We have closed the Strait of Hormuz.” You can only imagine how much thisContinue reading “Stand Back!”
Above the Fray
He huffs and he puffs… And he threatens annihilation of their entire civilization. He gives them twenty-four hours to make their fateful decision… Then he gives them forty-eight hours to open the Strait of Hormuz or else… One week. No more. That’s it. Now, he declares a two-week cease-fire that sees the United States asContinue reading “Above the Fray”
Dumb and Dumbest
Dumb and Dumbest He’s finally losing it… Everyone has chosen to ignore the obvious tell-tale signs. The change in his skin pallor from orange sunburst to a Frankensteinish green-gray death mask might have been a hint. The trembling. Swollen cankles. Hair loss. The mumbling incoherently to himself. The juggling of the ball bearings all dayContinue reading “Dumb and Dumbest”
Ding! Ding!
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has to be able to see the “writing on the wall….” She’s next. Who else is there? And forget about the little incident where an unflattering picture of her was taken down when people mistook the wrinkly, weathered red neck of an actual turkey with her own. He dumpedContinue reading “Ding! Ding!”
Alcoholism
As I enter into the last chapter of my life, I look back and smile. The smile is genuine; I am truly grateful to be alive and with a woman I still can’t stand to be away from for any length of time at all. But it almost never happened. Because I’m an alcoholic. IContinue reading “Alcoholism”
