Linky Links

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- The GOP had their first Presidential debate last night and The Free Press does a review.  Their analysis is the Vivek surged but the real winner was Donald Trump who wasn't even there. Admit that I watched neither the debate nor Trump's appearance on Tucker Carlson. Played pitch and watched the Red Sox instead.

- Jonathan Turley on how Joe Biden's story on Ukraine is falling apart.

- Interesting look at how "fact checkers" are used to censor critics in Australia with a focus on Mark Zuckerberg and Meta.

- A little East Coast humor

Interesting Quote

An interesting quote and I agree with the sentiment. But what really makes it interesting for me is that it was posted online by the GOP. Thomas Jefferson was a Southern, slave-holding Democrat. Did the GOP run out of quotes from Abraham Lincoln or Teddy Roosevelt or are they trying to send a message I'm missing,

10 Commandments for the GOP

VDH with 10 proposed "commandments" for the GOP to run on in 2022.

I would agree with all 10 but it bothers me as an American that many of these are even necessary. Energy independence, for example, is a no-brainer but these days we have to explain why this is important.

Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

No I did not watch the GOP debate last night. I wasn't around a TV. And if I was I probably would have been watching the Boston Bruins game instead anyway... Great - just what we need! More signs of the Apocalypse... Saw a pregnant gal yesterday with thigh-high leather boots with 6-inch heels. My immediate thought was "She'll make a great mother"... Seriously - the GOP Presidential field makes the Cleveland Browns QB situation look stable in comparison... Food That Looks Like Dongs would be an awful name for a band (or for an early bird dinner special)... Trump is polling at 38% vs Hillary Clinton. Here's what 38% looks like... Not for nothing but if Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson is allowed to participate in the debates against Hillary and Trump (if it comes to that) - then Johnson has a real chance to win the election. Nobody really wants to vote for Hillary or Trump... Heh heh... The GOP's new slogan should be "The Republican Party: Embrace the Suck". Have the bumper stickers been made up yet?... Where have you gone George W.? A nation turns its lonely eyes to you... I'm all for marijuana legalization but I am afraid that legal weed could just be a gateway drug to the Metric system... Heh heh - Hillary says she speaks to God daily, but won't reveal her fee...
