  • Sacrilegious, blasphemous, and just bad politics

    Donald Trump, heal thyself! At the Big Bang of Beatlemania, an awed John Lennon remarked “We’re more popular than Jesus.” For certain, the Fab Four sold more vinyl than the Messiah but they did not have mid-term elections to worry about like Donald Trump. As the most self-destructive president since Richard Nixon, this may be…

  • Blaska would like his party back

    Revenge of the RINOs! This week the President of the United States vowed to extinguish “a whole civilization” — language used by no wartime President — not even Richard Nixon jabbering to the portraits hanging in the White House, scotch in hand, during Watergate.

Al Green (D-TX) and his gilded cane out of the chambers. Did not attend a GOP watch party…

  • Who’s watching?

    Trump’s State of the Union address tonight? This gracelessly aging bloggeur lights a small votive (and fruit fly repellant) candle to give thanks that we have not been elected to the speaker of any house, be it the WI State Assembly or the U.S. House of Representatives (or the Stately Manor when the Lovely Lisa is…
