"This election ..........actually matters, unusual in Presidential contests. It is Blowhard against Corruption, a swell choice, but Trump is firmly against war with Russia, and Hillary for. Her military understanding is that of a fried egg.
The woman is both a fool and a knave but, it seems, Trump has talked trash, and therefore she will likely be President. Weirdly, the future of the world depends on how an excited electorate of political middle-schoolers responds to one candidate’s dirty talk. From a curmudgeon’s point of view, it is pretty funny. It is funnier if one lives outside of the radiation footprint."

Oh good. The world reaches a crossroads,
or probably a road off a cliff, just when I want to relax and watch
gratuitous violence on the tube. To judge by the rapid drift of events
aboard our planetary asylum, the talons of Washington and New York on
the world’s throat are fast being pried a-loose.
The Global American
Imperium is dying. Or so it sure looks anyway.
More @ Fred On Everything
It is cause for dismay, doubt and discouragement when one considers that the political campaign ad are nothing more than legal character assignation and slander, with the general theme being, vote for/ re-elect me, cause the other guy is a meanie and an icky person who say hurtful things. What we have now is a junior high school level popularity contest wrapped up and presented as a product to be sold to the public. And the sheeple, are willing to believe what ever will confirm their illusions and stroke their collective egos. Vote for me and I will give you free stuff and services, to be paid for by the other guy and those who are not paying their fair share. Of course if you should press some one who believes that, they will be unable to name who those people are and what exactly is their "fair share". I do have to disagree with Fred, that woman is NOT a fool. She knows exactly what she wants and how to get it and is totally unencumber by any restraint of internal ethics or morality and up to this point, confirmed in her believe that she is above the law, and "the rules" are for those others and deplorables to have to follow. Should she become POTUS, we the citizens of the FUSA will receive the punishment for our collective sins of getting in full measure the government and leaders that we deserve

DeleteWell put. :)
It reminds me of that scene in Alien, where they try to pry the creature off the first victim's face and discover it has acid for blood and will eat right through the guy if they try to remove it.
