  • It Is A Long Year

  • The Levelheadedness Of Donald Trump

    Oliver Stone is praying for the levelheadedness of the President elect. And it astonishes him. I never thought I’d find myself at this point in time praying for the levelheadedness of a Donald Trump. Are we going in to Bizarro World at this time or are we coming out? It is a wonder.

  • Sanctions On Russia?

    Because of secret (as in notional or non-existent) intelligence. Obama is at it again. I think he is trying to show how much damage a bad President can do to the US in just a few weeks.

  • It Is Illegal To Drive Under The Influence

    It is illegal to drive under the influence of coffee. After being pulled over on 5 August 2015, Schwab was charged by the Solano County district attorney with misdemeanor driving under the influence of a drug. Almost 18 months later, Schwab is preparing to go to trial. The only evidence the DA has provided of…

  • First Things First

    First they came for the water, but I didn’t have any water so I said nothing. Then they came for the gardens, but I didn’t have a garden so I said nothing. Then they came for the air, but by then I didn’t have any air so there was nothing I could say. From Government…

  • Princess Leia Is Dead

    Damn.

  • My Sister Is Transgendered

    Well this is going to be real good. But first off – I don’t have a sister. But Jackie Evancho does. And Jackie will be singing the National Anthem at Trump’s inauguration. She had this to say about her family. “My family is kind of a big target. I have a transgender sister and so…

  • Newt Predicts

    Newt Gingrich expects to see a political realignment next year. He expects the outcome to look like this: “You know, six months later, I think what you will see emerge is a bipartisan Trump majority, which will actually shake some of the more conservative Republicans and some of the more partisan Republicans.” I could see…

  • Happy Chanukah

  • I’m Shocked

    The DEA has classified CBD oil as a Schedule 1 drug, saying it has no medical use and a high potential for abuse. That is of course absurd. CBD is one of two main components of cannabis. The other is THC, the compound that produces a “high.” Typically, people who use marijuana recreationally are looking…

    The ideal in socialism is that everyone gets enough to eat. The ideal in capitalism is that everyone gets what they want to eat. Suggested by: Where You Cannot Generalize from Knowledge of Parts. An excerpt: Much of the local research in experimental biology, in spite of its seemingly “scientific” and evidentiary attributes fail a…

  • Trump Is Here To Kick Over The Table

    About 54 minutes     The Kick Over The Table stuff starts at about 18 minutes in. I think that is exemplified by what he is already doing at the DOE. Trump as the anti-John Galt starts at 28 1/2 minutes in. I covered what Newt was talking about at Donald Trump A Fan Of…

If that sort of thing is of interest you can go here for reviews and assays of Marley herbal products. But this is about politics. And the politics is getting interesting. After picking more than a…
