  1. Trump stinks.

    Scott Pruitt stinks.

    Paul Manafort picks up the soap.

    Big mistake, Paul.

    Stay upwind, America.

    And always use liquid soap if you're on Team Trump.

     

        1. Many concertgoers are from out of town, as it happens. True, though, we have a surplus of gun nuts and ammosexuals around here…oh, did I mention they are replete with racists and xenophobes in their midst?

           

    1. Zappatero:

      new questions — you want Pols to reach out and ask what some of us see as an inane question.

      * are you in some fashion confused or lacking awareness of what the elected Democrats are doing or thinking?

      * have you tried asking yourself? what happened?

      And in case you missed the earlier set I asked:

      What would you have Democrats DO? Why do you see them (us?) as "waiting until November"?

      What would be a satisfactory statement that would have you stop bemoaning, claiming our Congressional delegation are "woefully silent as this goes down in real time" ?? ….

      And while I'm at it, care to divulge which candidate is adequate to draw your support? I'm particularly curious about the present governor's race, but if you prefer to share some other commitment, I'd be happy to read that, too.

  2. I think it ironic that the site of the tent city being built to incarcerate the children of asylum seekers is in a small border town named "Tornillo".

    Tornillo is the Spanish word for "screw".

  3. Happy Father's Day to all you dads out there – and all of you who step up and try to be a good father to kids around you. Hope you have a pleasant day.

    1. Thanks, Mama. I'm having such a good day this is the first iI'v been online since early morning. And, it's raining well here and we need the respite from danger

  4. Clever letter by reader Larry Eisenberg published in the New York Times:

    Medford, MA.June 16

    Times Pick

    with apologies to "the disagreeable man"

    I have a great foundation, use it as a piggy bank,
    And now New York accuses me of wanton hanky pank,
    A lovely portrait of myself for future folk to see
    Hung on the wall of my golf club, viewed reverentially,
    I spent a little here and there to bolster my campaign
    And rewarded a hole in one, a trifle in the main,
    I'd love to dole out for the Poor, just rarely get the chance,
    And so the nice donations my fortune seem to enhance,
    And I can’t think why?

    I love the sight of money, money is my greatest joy,
    I loved it more than candy even when I was a boy,
    I never minded cheating, I’m considered very sly,
    Like coins out of a blind man's cup, I’ve taken by the by,
    I’m very fond of Pruitt, he does everything I would,
    Complaints about nepotism, I’ve never understood,
    I will not show my tax returns, I cheat as best I can
    Yet critics say that I am such a disagreeable man,
    And I can’t think why.

    I have had a flirty fling or two, and porn stars are my choice,
    When one agrees to frolic with me, oh how I rejoice,
    I do advocate abstinence, it’s the right thing to do,
    It ought to work for others, it’s just not my point of view,
    I had Cohen as my “fixer”, in the many things I did
    He was my big Pandora’s box where all my deals were hid,
    And now those nosy New York Feds are looking in the Box
    It makes me very nervous from my tie down to my socks,
    But I do know why.
