During WWII America had it's NAZI sympathizers. After the war, many NAZIS fled and fled with lots of ill gains.
We defeated its vessel of control of Germany. They have licked their woulds and feel strong enough to re surge. Along with the KKK and the south rising again. Even Putin is in.
From what i see the GOP is their political tool of greed and want of power to make America the next vessel as Germany was.
Call me a conspiracy theorist.
Let Chalie Sykes, Hannity, Hewitt, Brooks, Koch Brothers own politicians, RT, Trump and all his minions telll you never would they pee down your back and tell you it is raining like the old GOP did. No they would not be lying as it is Diarrhea your drowning in now.
As Maulkin is last years commodity that lost its market sales value, The new improved fascist strength Tommi Laren has new labeling as a fresh face to market. She is willing to make a buck and have a moment of fame no matter who she harms.
While American Troops sacrifice, kill and are killed for people like them to abuse their freedoms and intrude on others with false witnessing and propagandizing fellow American citizens. to quench that self absorbed greed.
Why is it Charlie Sykes is not preaching to all the up and coming right wing trained mouth hate breathers?
Well, Iowa may be (Zappa reference) the Gone-O-Ka-Ka-caucus, but they tell me there is another of the blasted things going on three mountains East of here as I type this.
It's difficult to stay grounded in reality while simultaneously gaming out scenarios in which Elizabeth Warren becomes our nominee. Third ballot in a contested convention? Could happen. Do I want it to happen? Hard to say.
I would prefer it to Bloomberg, but only a little, because as fucked up as Bloomberg is, he would stand a good chance of beating Fergus.
Bernie? I still like his policies, but the more he treads upon his penis, the higher my anxiety at his status as frontrunner.
But that's what primaries are all about, right?
I voted by mail on Monday, and up here in Madera County there are only four boxes to mark on the ballot, quite different from Alameda County where there are usually three ballots to fill out both sides of, a process that tended to take an hour sitting at my laptop looking up candidates and issues.
I only marked three of the boxes, though. One for Elizabeth Warren, one for a centrist-sounding Democrat running against incumbent Republican Tom McClintock, and one for a bond issue for school funding. The fourth was a goddamn Republican running unopposed and whose candidate description was loaded up with right wing propaganda. I tried to get Briana to let me write her name in, but she said "Oh hell no" so I left it blank.
Thank you again for the podcast. It rained a little today, and I got a little damp walking up to the mailbox and back (a half-hour walk for the disabled likes of me) but holy fuckballs do we need the precipitation. Nothing in January or so far in February and it's looking way too much like the drought again.
Another goddamn reminder of why the sane need to take the government back.

Defeat Trump, Vote blue anyone will do.
Unless your watching TV coverage. They wring their soaking tissue out in fear Sanders may win and cannot withhold their anxiety Bernie may take their tax cuts.
The primary, let the people choose. So far Bernie is leading and this is wrong?
So old people say if you do not elect Biden or someone they want they will not vote for Bernie and let Trump rein?
Moderates want Biden, mayor Pete, Bloomberg or Amy C. or forget it. The got Hillary last time and how did that work out? The Pumas were in full glory and now?
We voted for HRC they cannot vote if Bernie wins?
OH, (wring hands) Bernie only has portions of the primary held so far. He hasn't won by 90 percent of the votes.
So that equates that he cannot win a general? There are others in the race voting their choices IN THE PRIMARY!!!!
But, But Bernie can't gather a united Democratic party (in the primary).
Bernie hasn't shown he can win over Biden voters.
Well, Biden hasn't shown he can win over Bernie voters.....
This goes for all the candidates..
As Hard Ball Tweety goes off opining of childhood nightmares. Bernie can't win they will call him a "Socialist". A "Communist". MAGA brain getting Putin's help is going to call Bernie a socialist? Oh no, Bernie went to Moscow in his past. And Trump?* And he is still leading the Democratic primary pack.
At least Bernie is honest of who he is. But GOP voters won't listen unless they can get off the hate drug.
So Trump is going to call any Democratic nominee a naughty schoolyard name. Sanders already faced much of that right wing noise so he should be OK. What about Democratic voters?
Are they OK with Social Security?
Who thinks Bernie will sell pardons for his personal profit? Corrupt the Justice Dept? Golf for 2 thirds of his Term?
I am fairly confident Sanders will not pardon Charles Mason and then nominate him to the supreme Court or make CIA Che if.
Leave all that for FoX and the zombies that feed on it solely. There is NO Democratic candidate that can pierce the imagined reality of those folks. The are not going to mend their White supremacist ways in time for the election.
There are many in the media that are selling the notion that Democrats need to elect a moderate republican who will lean farther right if need be and not use the power of hispresidency like the GOP they voted in and support.
It is why the GOP only got mild media attention for obstructing Obama's SCOTUS nominee for 14 months.
What did McConnell and the GOP Senators declare?
"Wait for the election. Let the people decide on SCOTUS seat".
But people did not get to vote for their senators who confirm. The President contracted ut to the Federalist Society for a list of names for Trump to choose.
We had absolutely no say in choosing. The Federalist Society is a elite excluding club. I nor anyone I know. Knows of no one that belongs to the federalist society as a member? How about you?
Lets see what it looks like after South Carolina. TA state Democrats are going to lose in the general to Trump.
maybe after super Tuesday. We'll talk on Taco Wednesday.
