46570. arkymalarky - 10/8/2016 10:41:27 PM That article is dated September 13th. Not exactly current. 46571. arkymalarky - 10/8/2016 11:03:44 PM good source as a reminder though of how strong the Democratic party actually is, considering the Atlantic broke with tradition to endorse Hillary Clinton 46572. arkymalarky - 10/9/2016 1:05:48 AM This is like a Gilligan's Island episode. Trump is a monkey with a grenade swinging it around and the Republican party is Gilligan trying to persuade him to set it down. 46573. winstonsmith - 10/9/2016 7:15:44 AM Red State says CNN is working on a story about how the. RNC is pressuring Pense to quit the ticket so Trum will become completely untenable and have to also drop out. Likely just #NeverTrump wishful thinking but the whole thing is surreal. 46574. arkymalarky - 10/9/2016 5:05:46 PM The thing is that after the autopsy of the last election this is what they end up with. Because to figure out cause and effect would require introspection, which the GOP is apparently completely incapable of. Mitch McConnell wanted to do nothing but obstruct Obama. He and the GOP didn't even consider the possibility that the reason 70% of this country thinks we're on the wrong track is because Congress has a 17% approval rating, especially when you consider that Obama has well over 50% approval. They refuse to look in the mirror or listen to anybody else.
The results are an ever shrinking extreme base that suffers from an excess of hate and anger, mostly directed at minorities. They then wring their hands about the Creepy Clown they created with their stupid stubbornness. Obama ought to pull the Merrick Garland nomination on his way out the door and nominate Ken Burns.
Thing is, they keep making the same stupid mistakes over and over and they never ever change. They did this when Bill Clinton was President and lost everything. They did it with George Bush and lost everything. Every time they have clawed their way back because the gerrymandering of the House. They're going to get to the point where that's not going to work for them anymore; the demographics of this country are changing, and they need to just deal with it.
And the poor desperate hate-filled fear-filled base that they have courted all these years are so full of terror that has been created by the GOP and Fox and The Alex Joneses of the world about Obama and Hillary and The Other that they are supporting someone who they wouldn't even let in their Church doors otherwise. Their prejudice and their hate has taken over their entire moral characters and it's pathetic to watch. 46575. arkymalarky - 10/9/2016 6:33:10 PM Local hit

This is the new rural South, and while the white folks may still follow with their parents beliefs politically, that's changing. Quickly. Interracial friendships, relationships and marriages are common here and only older people think about it. Younger people let everybody do whatever they want to do and have varieties of friends and entertainment. Rap and country have blended in ways I never imagined around here.
Parts of the state where it's all white, and the older people here who are white don't like it a bit. But they're not going to change it. As a result the hostility is pretty scary in some places, including where my brother lives in North Arkansas.
46576. arkymalarky - 10/9/2016 7:14:16 PM By the way, I know some of the people that video. 46577. arkymalarky - 10/9/2016 7:24:22 PM Wow. Based on the Tweet Trump posted a little while ago, he's fixing to try to blow up the entire Republican Party. And he might just succeed. 46578. arkymalarky - 10/9/2016 11:21:46 PM All causes shall give way. I am in blood
Stepped in so far that, should I wade no more,
Returning were as tedious as go o'er.
Trump is channeling Macbeth 46579. arkymalarky - 10/10/2016 12:29:05 AM Treating this as my blog, it occurs to me that in the first debate Hillary Clinton hit Trump with something they dug up in oppo research. I bet she does it again tonight and catches him off guard, because he's expecting her to deal with his videos and other things that have come out on what he said on Howard Stern, etc. If she does that his personality will not allow him to do what he plans to do. 46580. arkymalarky - 10/10/2016 12:29:32 AM And of course, what he plans to do is absolutely anyone's guess. 46581. judithathome - 10/10/2016 1:57:12 AM Well, I know one person who is thankful for Trump and that is Pat Buchanan...prior to tonight, he has been known as the most disgusting candidate ever to appear in a Presidential debate.
I am thinking that since a few networks showing THIS debate tonight are considering running a "may not besuitable for children" warning prior to tonight's debate have passed THAT baton to Trump and Buchanan can rest easier. 46582. arkymalarky - 10/10/2016 4:56:52 AM Well that was anticlimactic. 46583. judithathome - 10/10/2016 10:02:33 PM ...but at least Snifflin' Don proved the point that he is a stalker of women...he looked like a rapist on the prowl, looming over Hillary like she was the next victim of his grabbing her by her...female parts. 46584. judithathome - 10/10/2016 10:03:43 PM And Mike Pence can pound sand with his praise of The Donald today.... 46585. judithathome - 10/11/2016 12:42:15 AM No...on one side it was fiction. And I don't mean from the woman who was stalked all over the stage by the man who hopes to become the Predator-In-Chief...because he has bragged in the past of being thoroughly qualified for that position. 46586. judithathome - 10/11/2016 10:09:41 PM Internet sensation Ken Bone was just interviewed on MSNBC...he is this campaign season's Joe The Plumber but what a joy to see a modest man with a very dry wit who is not saying for whom he is voting...he explained why he wears a red sweater to each event...he wanted to wear his grandfather's "very nice suit" but unfortunately, split the pants of said suit and went with khakis and the red sweater.
He's adorable...were I on Twitter, I'd send him a fan letter...he is pushing not one candidate or the other but instead, pushing VOTING...his "cri de cœur" is "go out and vote"!
Meet Ken Bone 46587. judithathome - 10/12/2016 9:55:29 PM OMG...Steve Schmidt (a Republican who is sick of what has happened to his party) just said on MSNBC that Donald Trump, who yesterday said he would not want to be in a foxhole with John McCain....has bragged that HIS "Viet Nam" was avoiding getting the clap during the Studio 54 years in New York City.
This is the lowest....absolutley.
I'd love for him to say taht to Keoni's face...who did three tours in Viet Nam and kept America safe so that shitheel Donald Trump could party down at Studio 54. 46588. arkymalarky - 10/13/2016 1:34:26 AM They tried to use that against him in the primaries and it didn't stick. I'm waiting for people to start screaming about him ogling nude teenage girls at those pageants who were under 16 years old. But hey, WikiLeaks 46589. judithathome - 10/13/2016 11:33:16 PM Immediately after women came forward with reports of being groped by Trump, his team is trying to denigrate them by saying they went to Hillary first with these stories and her team contacted the media...because why ELSE would they not have spoken out sooner and just now come forward after all this time?
Well....maybe...because like me when my high school typing class instructer rubbed his penis on my back while leaning over me to instruct me how to replace the ribbon on my typewriter, they were horrified and afraid to speak out against a man with authority.
