Joe, We Need the Truth

So we all know there are troubles with the story of Joe Biden's alleged abuse of a woman in the early nineties.  She is a rabid partisan Putin supporter, and let's face it, this is just the kind of dirty lie the Republicans are going to tell from now to November, like Hillary's e-mails, Benghazi, the Swift Boat smear and on and on.  We all have good historical reasons to doubt whatever smear the Republicans (and possibly the Berniebots) cook up.  For a good treatment of the problems with the accusations, I suggest you look to Daily Kos.

But that is not enough of an answer.  As people desperate to be done with a massively criminal President, we have to know the truth, before we are unalterably committed to his candidacy.

It is absolutely critical that Biden find a way to resolve this issue before he becomes the official candidate.  If Republicans were allowed by the press to savage Hillary over the totally phony e-mail scandal, they will tear Biden apart over this.  It will become the central issue of the campaign, no matter how little substance there might be to it, and it will very likely result in giving Trump four more years to destroy our country.

I don't have a clue how Biden will do this, but he has to.  Otherwise, we've got to pick someone else.

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.

Wingnut Wrapup

 Well, I haven't done one of these in a while, but I thought it might be fun to see what the wingnuts are "thinking" lately, so let's just dive in: And the big news: "Breaking! Trump Just Truthed He's "The Real Commander-In-Chief" Well, he said it.  It must be true.  He "truthed" it! You know it wouldn't take long for this sort of "reporting" to happen: "Maui Directed Energy Weapon Assault, Like 9/11, Paradise, CA., Malibu and Boulder Fires" Of course, it can't be the result of global warming.  It must be the deep state attacking Hawaii for some reason.  That makes much more sense.  Here's a small selection of headlines from the dozens and dozens of other articles about this alleged treachery: "New Patriot Underground: Hawaiian Wildfire: Possible DEW Attack" Maui: "An Orchestrated Apocalypse" "Maui Hawaii Has DUMBs Underground 8 to 10 Sex Trafficking Tunnels We Just Lasered Them Out!

Hamas

  Of ocurse I am going to take the opportunity to talk about the Hamas attack on Israel.   First, I'd like to talk about my background, or baggage, regarding the country.   I have lived in Israel, some years ago.   This was not for religious reasons; I spent several months there working on a movie.   During pre-production, weeks of location scouting and shooting the movie, I was all over the country, and spent a fair amount of time in the West Bank, where we also shot.   This included a lot of places that normal tourists would not see, including predominantly Arab areas such as East Jerusalem, the Arab quarter of the old city, Ramla and the southern part of Jaffa, which is predominantly Arab.   It also included heavily Orthodox areas like Mea Shearim.   I dealt with Israeli Arabs, Palestinians and Bedouins.     Here are a few things I believe I learned there:   First of all, the Palestinians I knew were perfectly normal people with the same interest in living a safe, secure
