It's Just a Mystery

Republican governor Nathan Deal of Georgia, the State with the highest unemployment in the country:

"It's ironic that in a year in which Republican governors are leading some of the states that are making the most progress — that they almost, without exception, are classified as having a bump in their unemployment rates. Whereas states that are under Democrat governors' control, they are all showing that their unemployment rate has dropped. Now, I don't know how you account for that..."

No, Governor Deal, I guess you don't know how you might account for that.  Not without admitting the obvious truth that Democrats know how to run things and Republicans don't.

No, that could never be the answer.

"Maybe there is some influence here that we don't know about," he continued. "But when you say California is in a better position in terms of unemployment than the state of Georgia, there's just something that just does not ring true."

That's it- the Democrats are faking the unemployment rates.  That must be what is going on.

We need employment ID cards. Obviously, democrats are stuffing the employment roles with unemployed people reporting as employed.

Let's stop employment fraud. Require that every employed person carry a government issued employment ID card.

Will those be issued after a racial purity test? If that's what you are advocating, I see a great career for you at Renew America or Breitbart.

Jerry, it occurred to me that my remark was deadpan enough that you just might think I meant it. Just making sure you knew I didn't suspect that you had changed sides.

Speaking of changing sides, besides the racial purity test, perhaps we should have a sexual straightness test also.

You can never have enough tests to be sure that you are dealing with the "right kind of people", you know. :)

A sexual straightness test- maybe we've found a job for Anonymous. Of course, that's assuming that, with his obsession with gays he could pass it himself.

When someone calls me some epithet like ‘fag’ I know they’ve got nothing. Nothing. It’s laughable. Or would be if it wasn’t so sad.

For all we know, Anon might be a perfect gentleman on a one-to-one basis – it’s just that he’s hopelessly brainwashed, with his dial flicked to auto-hate. He doesn’t hate you – he doesn’t even know you - he hates the imaginary version of you he’s been taught to hate.

Re Obama: People like Anon hate an Obama that doesn’t actually exist, rather than the real politician that you are often critical of for his real failures.

This is the great paradox of our faltering so-called civilisation: never before have we had so much information so readily available and yet there are masses of people walking around with a completely fictional worldview.

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

If a Tree Falls In the Woods

 And nobody hears it, is it really running for President at all? First of all, a note about my absence lately:  My wife got me to sign up for an account at Threads, which is sort of like X without the assholes.  I've spent a little time establishing myself there, and I have to say, I do like the relatively immediate exchange of views, but I don't mean to give up my blog- there are still so many things that can't be dealt with in a couple hundred words, so, perhaps to your dismay, I am back. So, what motivated the above question is the fact that the Sunday New York Times today had seven articles about Trump, and absolutely zero about Kamala Harris.   The Republicans have a problem with Harris, in that virtually everyone who sees her likes her and immediately understands how qualified she is to be President.  They have tried mightily the last month to find some way to smear her, but have been spectacularly unsuccessful- the tactics of character assassination ...

Wingnuts Slightly Annoyed about that $83 Million

Image
How can you look like a decrepit old geezer and an out of control two year old at the same time? I thought it might be nice to look in on wingnut world to see how they are taking yesterday's $83 million dollar Trump legal loss.  You kind of know that they will decide it shouldn't affect their opinion of him in any way, but it might be helpful to see just how the Republican party has trained them to reject any fact they don't like.  Not that surprisingly, a lot of the usual wingnut suspects didn't touch this loss at all, preferring to just ignore anything that interferes with their hateful daydreams, but here are a few excerpts from an article at Gateway Pundit, along with a sample of the hundreds of comments it received.  Enjoy.  Or not. "Trump attorney Alina Habba WENT OFF after the crooked New York City court slapped President Trump with an $83 million judgment for speaking out against the disgusting lies of a crazed woman who said he lured her into a Bergdorf Go...
