Each day more and more muck piles up and the vast majority just don't notice or care. They aren't getting any news but Pablum, and have no idea they are real babes in the woods. A wood full of swampy crocs (edit for auto fill) and rats just waiting to feast. I truly believe that nothing can stop it now.

Same as dial the phone. LOL

I have to make one of these... This is awesome, my daughter asked me the other day why we say roll up the window while in the car. LOL

This may be THE BIG MISTAKE the Dems make! Not a great idea. The Pendulum sways both ways, you know. Bad idea. Who thought this one up? nb

LMAO - True, very true!

Terrible waste if true for a guy who could just about have any RCH he wanted ;)

I knew he didn't serve in the military for some reason, but don't believe he was gay.

chem teacher in high school made use use slide rulers
i'v forgotten how...

Funny

I hadn't read that he was gay, but that he skipped out of military service, and other wimpy things. Guess I shouldn't be surprised with Rock Hudson and others.

Guess he is just an actor, not a role model. Eastwood on the other hand, is a tough cookie.

Yes, John Wayne as an actor was portrayed as very manly ,but in real life he was fake and gay.

You got it. We actually have a giant slide rule hanging in the office over the center coffee mess, perhaps 20 feet long. A long time ago they used it to do some turbine calculations because a larger slide rule is more accurate. I don’t know the details, but there are some real sharp, old GE guys around that may recall.

That’s pretty good. After reading some stuff on John Wayne, I’m not sure he was the great paragon of masculinity and patriotism that he portrays. However, I do think Clint Eastwood is exactly that.

Ha, yes. Your point regarding an attempt on Trump's life may be spot on. I have a picture in my "man cave" of John Wayne taken from "The Sands Of Iwo Jima" in a WWII marine uniform. The caption is, "Life is tough. Even tougher if you're stupid."

RCH - LMAO. Haven't seen/heard that reference in decades - either that or my mind is in the wrong place as I read your post, LOL!

The Way It Goes

40 to 50 years ago I had correspondents in the Philippines.
"I voted against Marcos,
my friends and family voted against Marcos,
my colleagues and everyone voted against Marcos.
When results came out it was- Marcos, 100%."

What is the mood of America today? Surely a vote now or six months further on would be a resounding win for Trump. It is not just policies but mainly it is emotion, character.
Consider, what the polls show, now, and in six months. --
This is a serious macabre topic, but humor cannot be avoided.

There will be much discussion on poll accuracy, statistics and confidence intervals and sampling errors. All good and correct.
The vote takes place, massive rallies and displays of support for Trump, emptiness from Biden. People left to right, up and down vote for Trump.
The results come out: early figures show Biden victories, big numbers come out, all decided Biden victories, the final result is massive majority for Biden. Biden has more votes than any previous candidate ever, more votes than registered Democrat electors, more votes than can be counted as Biden ballots still flood in after closure.

Life goes on as before, decline, war, defeat, the winners are maybe China dictatorship, or Islamic dictatorship. Losers are the US, the West, middle classes, the poor, freedom of speech, prosperity, or maybe just the new ascendancy of AI machines with a few humans in zoos, which may well happen anyway.

Life is tough. We gotta be tougher. Bring it!

I can use a slide rule! I also know what an RCH is.

It's still not too late to dump Biden and almost any other Dem would do better (excluding the obvious VP.)

When the power goes out and the cell towers cease to work, they will lift their heads in total confusion.

Side note: I just picked up an awesome slide rule in a leather case at a second hand store for four bucks and found an abacus at the same place a few weeks ago. I figure I'd build them into a case with the sign "In case of power failure, break glass" LOL! Of course, you'd nearly have to be a senior citizen to even understand what that means.

Whew, Thor, that's harsh!

Thumb up on that!

I keep saying it....The only way Biden gets reelected is if they kill both Trump and RFK Jr. That's how bad things are now. They have to get both of them. I've long thought they'll try to get Trump. If so...I honestly believe (assuming the votes are actually counted...big assumption) that RFK trounces Biden.

Yeah, it's over. Just one man's opinion - of course.

If I were Trump, I would support this. Please vote to cancel Secret Service protection. They won’t give it to RFK either. If it gets cancelled, it will be a first of epic proportions! Please keep cheating in public.

If it gets cancelled and Trump gets shot, he can’t lose (if he makes it), and whoever else can’t lose if he doesn’t.
