I don't doubt their intentions, but I've seen so many important pieces of legislation dragged down or stomped into the ground by those who stayed out for reasons of purity. Of course it isn't fair of me to judge them by American standards. 

 

Speaking of American standards, it looks like we are still getting naked efforts to distract and distract from the Russia investigation.

The infighting is going to be very helpful as the walls close in on these criminals.

 

In special election news, this Democrat is running for South Carolina's 5th district seat. The ad is a bit corny and I hate how people running for office feel like they have to be "entertaining" but I have to admit it made me smile and toss him some cash.

Am I crazy to suspect that maybe, just maybe, Bannon ARRANGED for the stuff about Kushner to be leaked, but was clever enough to cover his own moose tracks?

 

Ugh.  It's a cliche, but it's also very true: there is no honor among thieves.

Very true. 

I once read that industrialized countries are responsible for the overwhelming lionshare of the world's greenhouse gases but the poor nations are most likely to suffer the consequence.

It's unlikely that Nicaragua's carbon footprint even comes close that of the U.S. and other industrialized, wealthy nations.

Oh it's obvious he's gained weight. That's what I found so funny about the way he preened after shoving the Montenegro PM. He lifts his head in order to try and minimize his double chins and geezer neck. It's good to hear that he's miserable though. All that stress is accelerating his dementia.

I read a story -- I think it was in Newsweek? -- about the Pope teasing Melania about Trump's weight.  Apparently, Pope Frankie spoke to Mellie in Italian, asking whether she makes her hubby some rich, fattening dessert that they serve in her homeland.  Of course, Mellie speaks Italian fluently, and President Stay-Puft doesn't.  Ergo, the pope's joke, like much in his life, went over Donny's proverbial head.

Between Griffin and Maher, toxic white progressivism is having some kind of competition to see who can be more thirsty and tone deaf. I see people saying he should lose the show for this. If that happens watch him become even more vicious and nihilistic. He still hasn't gotten over losing Politically Incorrect.

      Jane Wyman return episode was head-to-head w/ Cheers season 8 finale. Falcon Crest broadcast syndication began Fall 1986, which overlapped w/ Oprah going national. AFAIK cable broadcasts were Lifetime and Soapnet. I have no memory of cable broadcasts on TBS, TNT, TNN, E!, FX.
    • After today’s rushed and abrupt exit for Summer I immediately realized that Josh & Co. were very blindsided by AL’s decision to leave.  Not the first time this has happened to JG either; see MM & HK’s exits in 2021, MM’s exit in 2022, and of course TSJ’s exit last year. Obviously JG and our executive in charge of nothing Steve Kent don’t have a good handle on casting disruptions. And Mariah having an offscreen affair is [!@#$%^&*] ridiculous!! Meanwhile Tessa’s blonde hair is overkill with the number of blondes on the show already. I said the same thing 3 years ago…of course it was utterly ridiculous everyone was mad at Sally for getting Summer he dream job (don’t ask lol) but there was so much the show could have done without bringing on the Marchetti angle.
    • Does the ball on GL where Philip revealed that he had forced Alan out of Spaulding count or was that not Philip's idea?  There was a ball on AMC where Adam revealed that he had bankrupted Palmer, I think (or was it the other way around?), but I can't remember who threw that.
    • Thanks for honoring Ruth Buzzi. She was a treasure. I'm glad DAYS let her have some fun. I remember Imogene Coca complaining about ATWT just giving her a drab guest part.
    • It's such a delicious set of circumstances that I'm actually a little surprised that I can't think of ones that exactly match. I've just got a couple of close but no cigars (the reveal wasn't public, like when Alexis told Dominique at her and Garrett's engagement party that Garrett lied about being married; or the revealer didn't come up with the idea of the party). Maybe I need to think some more about it.
    • Not too shabby, making her mark in only six episodes. There's a project for the soap historians -- characters with the least episodes/most impact.
    • Which could make sense , except that we have seen Mariah function for years w/o any real residue pain from her upbringing. Josh decides to randomly make it a thing, when a good writer might foreshadow that for months. It's not like he's just arrived at the show. He's been there for years . Everything seems to be thought out only a few weeks ahead. It's like Phyllis all freaky from being kidnapped when she has done a million other things that didn't seem to bother her at all.
    • Unrelated, sort of, but he looks absolutely nothing like Amanda Setton or Dominic Zamprogna so it's kind of hilarious they decided to make Gio their kid.  It's very clear this was not the original origin story for Gio when they cast him. He is a very handsome guy though. 
    • I tend to agree, although going back to OLTL, Frank has so often cast guys who are meant to be attractive yet come across as cold and dead, I'm surprised he managed to get one who has a bit of a pulse.
