[To salt this fresh pile of sand I offer two bagatelles from the news. The Great Divide posited and discussed in these pages is now being recognized more and more by media commentators. The newest label – “America’s cavernous divide” – comes from Fox News. And then there’s the unrecognized faux pas of Speaker Ryan who exhorts Trumpsters about unvetted Muslim immigrations, stating that such “bans” should be “security based and not religion based” while not recognizing that today they are equivalent when the religion is Islam. gjr]

Perhaps the FUE will let us know how 2016 is because of Global Warming and 1910 didn’t happen…
One word… weather.
Southern Hemisphere temperatures are tanking fast enough that 2016, once on track to be the warmest ever in the instrumental record, is now #4 and falling. Southern hemisphere temp anomaly (difference from the average in the record) has fallen a full degC since its peak in April.

For Jeffie’s information, I had an Other Voices all set to go months ago that hit the local Democratic Party climate committee that was flooding The Union, and Ms. Hall, pretty hard but I withdrew it, partially because I didn’t live in District 1 and didn’t know Strawser well enough to do his campaign a big favor. I’ve been thinking it needs revising and extending for RR.LikeLike

Off base obsession with Mr. Mongoloid? Heck, I spied him sitting with a lady at a table usually reserved for a party of six. Geeze, my first impression was this poor guy looks like a he is literally retarded….er….a person with Down Syndrome. It was that look in his eyes and he knew I was staring at him. I tried to look away, and did, but this sick curiosity lead my eyes back to the scene just for a quick peek. His girth and neck width was my next stare and he obvisiously was well acquainted with being stared at. His lovely partner grabbed his hand and must have muttered something like “don’t worry about them.” He turned to her comforting words and continued to shove food in his mouth for more comfort.
Sorry, I just had to look again and then turned my back and pretended everything was normal..except there is a 900 pound gorilla in the place and nobody feels it’s proper to talk about it! Hush, hush time. Can you say “awkward?”
Off-base obsession?? More like morbid curiosity. Wonder what the Irish think?
Good thing I was there for takeout. Couldn’t get that sight out of my mind quick enough. Food was great as usual, consumed in a more pleasant setting…like anywhere but the restaurant. I love The Sandbox.LikeLike

Dozer, you can stop it at any time by proving to Rebane who you really are. I think you are Pelline and I expect Pelline is perfectly capable of lying through his teeth to protect a personal sock puppet.LikeLike

And “Dozer”/FUE, the point of the Other Voices (not a letter) story was that I was not personally invested in the Hall/Strawser race, contrary to your snide claims to the contrary. I also don’t care that much about what the lefty rabble in District 1 think about climate science because on the whole, they’re as clueless as the average Rhetoric or PoliSci major when it comes to the physical sciences.
Mother Nature is running the experiment. She has the final word and right now, the word is that it’s getting cooler.

Here’s one of the snide claims… very typical of the FUE:I think it really eats at Gregory Goodknight that Heidi Hall was elected to be a District 1 Supervisor in Nevada County with an endorsement from Michael Mann. ROFLOL!
Of course, Gregory thinks S.F. natives call San Francisco “Frisco.” LOL.My Frisco native grandfather certainly did, a Lowell High graduate and brewmaster when he enlisted in WWII, the son of a brewmaster. And even Herb Caen confessed to the pleasure of saying Frisco out loud. The bitch!

Trump will win hands down. The Never Trump crowd is just warming up for Round 2 and haven’t gone anywhere. The Establish is still the Establishment and stupid is as stupid does. Trump is doing fairly well considering our only choice is going it alone. There are a bunch of RINOs laying on the ground still coughing up Trump’s dust and…….well, I remember President Dukais was up way more than Hillary is now over his Republican challenger in June of that year. His campaign manager Susan Estridge and all the Dems that important Dems were gloating and giggling and running around saying “pinch me”. Then August came and then….what, you never heard of President Michael Dukais? Same here.
Dozer, just put your game face away. It’s over. You win. Time to take off the armor and declare victory. Yep, just let your guard down and relax. The conventions are so boring anyway. And September will be the same as any September, so you won’t miss anything.LikeLike

INSUFFERABLE
having or showing unbearable arrogance or conceit.
“an insufferable bully”

Walt, you are senile my friend. I told you many times for the last 9 months- DRUMPF WILL NEVER BE PRESIDENT. Of course I amended my early GOP primary prediction after I (and the entire nation) saw the true makeup of most of the GOP- a huge percentage of racists, sexists and overall bigots- most of us had not a clue how extensive the problem was.
Walt, for the 11th time at least- DRUMPF WILL NEVER BE PRESIDENT. Got it?
This doesn’t help, as I previously explained today….the total crackup of a grand old party. Fun to see in the short term, sad to see in the long run. My father’s party is gone, and with it, any large scale aspirations. But you boys support the New Fascist, and will live with the consequences. Drumpf by 6. Live and learn Walt.

Walt, liberal buffoons like the “jons” always move the goal posts. You can never pin them down because they have no belief system or hard core values. They are vacuous empty space taking up my air and yours. I too recall them telling us ad nauseum Trunp would not make it through th primaries. Now he is there and so they move the goalposts. George H.W. Bush was way behind Du-kick-us in 1988 and won handily in November. Things happen. I like Trump doing the lamestreams work by pointing out all of Hillary’s millions coming from the countries killing homos and enslaving women. What a hoot!
