A Graphic for Trump Protesters
posted by Tony
OMW, yes! Attention: Trump protesters lighting cars on fire, throwing rocks at police horses, and everything else… There is wisdom here. As well, your viva revolution, fighting the man, wishing for fewer cops and less government, is not going to bring about socialism; it will bring...

Alan Greenspan: Half Right
posted by Tony
Typical. He gets it half right: Greenspan: Western World Headed for a State of Disaster “The issue of foreign trade is something which has helped the country grow all the way back to 1790 and the presumption that of sudden we’re turning off on trade is very narrow-minded in my...

New OT Rule Could be Bad

This is why I’m going to start moving away from writing or speaking about politics, I think. Time is just too precious and I’m really losing my mind about the insanity going on in our country. Here’s a quick example: Josh Barro, a Senior Editor at Business Insider, Tweeted...

Johnson-Weld 2016?
posted by Tony
Is this a game changer? Yes. This does indeed complicate things … I voted for William Weld in 1990; I voted for Gary Johnson in 2012; I like what both Trump and Sanders are saying but … a Johnson/Weld ticket? Oh boy … Weld is set to join Libertarian ticket as VP...

Trump 2016 Meet Clinton 1996 …
posted by Tony
Bill Clinton in 1996 = Donald Trump in 2015/2016 … it really is that simple. The only difference? Clinton said he did something and was going to do more and didn’t, and the problem became much worse. And now, Clinton and his wife say that it isn’t a problem when it is,...

The Dead Kennedys are a clue on Jeopardy: The category was songs with countries in the names. The $2,000 clue, meaning they thought it was hard, was: The Dead Kennedys’ “Holiday in _____” Pictured: Me, in “80s” garb, on New Year’s Eve 2015.

Good Question …
posted by Tony
Yes, I know, I hate Facebook graphics. I really do … But whether you think it’s the liberal media, corporate media, or whatever, this is a great question to ask. Take a look at Hillary Clinton’s book, “Hard Choices,” as an example. Simon & Schuster paid a...
Silly But … Hmm …
posted by Tony
As I’ve already stated, I think Trump needs someone to eye his Tweets. And the “I love Hispanics” Trump Tweet while he was eating a taco bowl ordered from a restaurant in his building the other day really bothered me, mostly because it was stupid. But earlier today, while I...
Finally: The WSJ Returns …

It took five months, but the print edition of the WSJ is finally being delivered again. Apparently, the Concord Monitor delivery driver just wasn’t delivering it. All this time, I thought it had to do with the Boston Globe delivery problems. SMH

Charles Koch, Hilarious …

This is hilarious … and in reality, this isn’t actually about Hillary Clinton; this is about Donald Trump and to a lesser extent, Bernie Sanders (who still has a tiny shot at the nomination). Trump challenges much of what the Kochs hold dear – free trade and globalization...

Voting Problems in New York

It’s very interesting watching the voting irregularities in NYC right now with entire blocks of voters purged. It’s unknown why or how this happened; the mayor has ordered all previous voter rolls reinstated, which is good, in a sense. A lot of people will be screaming about...
