“From a student radical/hippie/leftist of the Free Speech Movement/Vietnam Day Commitee era and a full-on Democratic Liberal in the decades after, I think I’ve evolved a politics that is neither right nor left but is, in its elemental nature, draconian. In the last 20 years, I’ve taken apart my beliefs with a sledgehammer. Now I’ve got to put the surviving parts back together with tweezers and other ‘shabby equipment, always deteriorating’.”

Your Say
Plagueworks
March 2020, West Seattle
You can stand at the dock
now and not be bothered much
by boats. Looking hard you can see it –
the road worn into the water where
the flat-bottomed ferries once
went up and down all day.
The islands want none of us
and won’t come. Vashon squats
with its aliens in a patch-tattered
yurt that shrouds the shore in
smoke-yellow walls – a bit put off
by the virus across the bay.
Bainbridge and Whidbey salute the San Juans
who can finally keep the orcas and grays to themselves.
From shore to shore the semaphore
warns that plagues are made on the
mainland – they’d have us keep our fevers
here. The few running boats ride high
above the jellyfish. Two tired men
throw gray ropes to an empty pier.
– Andy Havens

I’m in love with a brown eyed woman.
It’s not that Jeanine (or Warren) is such a good speaker, it’s that Bloomberg is such a bad speaker.
I’ve spoken one on one with a number of politicians over the years and without exception every one of them stumbles frequently when required to speak forthright. In my opinion the reason is that they necessarily must educate themselves in a broad range of subjects therefore they cannot be experts in the details of any of the subjects. You can see this yourself when you watch any of the talking head shows on sunday morning MSM. The host will ask the pol a Q and s/he’ll use a number of cheap tactics to stall while s/he gathers their wits, and then never really answers the question. Tim Russert was notorious for circling back around and hitting them with the same question worded differently and again the pol would falter. All you have to do is scratch the surface a little bit to draw blood and they will run. Going back to the early 80’s I have spoken directly to about 8 politicians at the state and national level on a variety of topics and I found all of them to be very shallow in knowledge to where I questioned their intellectual capacity. People expect politicians to be more than human and give them rights that are beyond human and then are disappointed when all they are is human, or a little less. There is no perfect human and there is no perfect politician so the votist is left in the unsavory position of choosing from damaged goods (the lesser of two evils) and is almost always disappointed. It’s the nature of the game, and it’s a game I refuse to participate in because frankly NO ONE is good enough to rule over me. So I live like an outlaw on the run in a land filled with criminals and their enablers.
I am relieved Judge Judy is on “our” side. Wow, that lady has intestinal fortitude, plus.
Correction: Judge Jeanine. Very sorry for the name mess up.
I agree with Ghost….however, I have come to the realization that “The perfect if the enemy of the good.” Therefore I will vote for Trump. He is not perfect, but he is a far cry from the radical hate -America shit-fuckery that opposes him.
While it was fun to watch Fauxcahontas tear strips off Mini Mike, the thought of that hectoring harridan lecturing us as POTUS makes me shiver.
Terry,
No worry on a minor slip. Judge Judy can be fun to watch, but she is a Bloomberg fan and gun hater. Judge Jeanine is a fireball!
If the dems have a brokered convention,
it will be Hillary for president and Michelle
Obama for vice president.
Fireball, yes, snakepit. And here she’s literally, dare I say it, “Burning down the house…..”
Jeanine is a firestorm, a force with which to reckon and I wouldn’t want her tail grabbing me for any reason but anyone who pays attention to Bloomberg could put him in a corner, go full Tyson on him, and make him look like a fool.
Let me make it clear. I really dislike Bloomberg. He’s a dishonest, heartless tyrant and if he was investigated he’d likely be cooling his heels in a Federal penitentiary somewhere but….. His guardance of the privacy of his offensive comments and his out of court settlements regarding his social screw ups, are and should be (in my opinion), his private affair. Everyone knows he’s an enormously rich and thoughtless, power broker asshole but he still deserves a certain guarantee of privacy.
The women who entered into deals with him did so upon their own volition and most certainly at the direction of their attorneys. These women could have pressed charges but instead they opted for a cash payoff in agreement for their silence on the matter. They may a deal…good, bad or otherwise and they should honor it.
The other political piranhas in the American communist party should simply have to live with it. Fuck Elizabeth Warren and her sanctimonious gutting. He’s pretty honest about who he is but she isn’t about who she is.
There are so many things that do not recommend Bloomberg but the ones the left throws at him are not it.
& on her Wikipedia page: “Police subsequently charged her with driving 119 miles per hour in upstate New York.”
Yep, I love her.
even tho she has bigger balls than i, i still love her.would never ever want to face that as a defendant in her courtroom.
Vanderleun,
I don’t know if she is Italian, Greek, etc. but yes, Jeanine is easy to look at.
simma down
she’s old enough to be your mammy
She could be my first wife in her prime. And I approve heartily.
Well, GS, in my case, old enough to be my slightly older big sister, which is……….close enough!
Judge Jeanine’s parents are from Lebanon. She was born in Elmira NY.
Lots of Lebanese Christians came here when the Islamists turned Beirut into yet another Muslim s**thole.
Like another Lebanese-American,Brigitte Gabriel,Judge Jeanine is fiercely pro-America,and fearless in her speech.
