There is no joy in Mudville, Mighty Casey has Struck Out: Reflections on the Trumpquake.
07 Nov 2024
Thank you Kamala, for bringing back the joy. Maybe not the joy you were thinking about, but I’ll take it. We’re not going back to normal, perhaps we never will. But we’re leaving the dystopian reality that was the failed Biden/Harris administration, and that is an encouragement. Like you, I’m still processing the election results […]

Never Harris
03 Nov 2024
The lamentable state of our election once again leaves us with two candidates of poor character–candidates who regularly demagogue their opponents with dishonest characterizations (to put it mildly). We have one candidate who has denied all her prior distinguishing positions when running for president a mere four years ago (without explaining why she abandoned those […]

For Ms. Harris, “it’s not the economy stupid”
04 Sep 2024
Over at the far left Salon, Joe Tauke suggests Ms. Harris should focus on anything but the economy. In Tauke’s argument, despite all the evidence of a superior economy under Biden/Harris, voters simply don’t believe it: Yet when it comes to economic matters, all the momentum in the world apparently means nothing. Last month, the […]

Great list of Questions for Ms. Harris
29 Aug 2024
Is over on National Review, you should check it out. I predict that no more than three of these questions (or the issues they represent) will be asked, and will not be pressed hard when the prevaricating begins. But the best one is this: Were any of Trump’s tariffs mistaken? Follow-up: Then why hasn’t your […]

Freedom, Fallacies, and Fun
22 Aug 2024
Can the smoke screen and projection carry Kamala Harris across the finish line? Reality and logic keep pushing back, but she only has to go ~two more months. Let’s take a quick look at some of the reality mugging the Democratic/media machine. Markets still rock though, and smack down the left’s fatal conceit. Yesterday saw […]

Polls show that Americans are punishing Democrats for the establishment insisting that Biden was healthy and capable for a second term: A detailed report compiled by Democrats showing the president forecast to lose in an Electoral College landslide has sent alarm bells through the party’s leadership and led to renewed calls publicly and privately for […]
