[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]

The latest Gallup poll on Americans’ view of Orlando pretty much corroborates assertions in ‘Liberal Mind Interpret Florida’.
Viewing it as Islamic Terror – Adults 48%, Republicans 79%, Independents 44%, Democrats 29%. Viewing it as Domestic Gun Violence – Adults 41%, Republicans 16%, Independents 42%, Democrats 60%.
From this we deduce that more than half of American adults are delusional, which for Democrats reduces to more than two out of three. In Rakka, Syria they’re laughing their asses off.LikeLike

Ah yes, it was Jose Clemente Orozco who painted the mural in the dining hall. A little shortsightedness by the big wigs to place it in the dining hall and serve red enchiladas on food fight day. Boy, them Big Wigs were not amused. Ona and I did not participate in such adolescent millennial behavior (but I knew it was a once in a lifetime opportunity.).
BTW, Jose is not to be confused with Roberto Clemente, a hero of mine once upon a time.

The press is doing the same thing to Trump as they did to GW Bush. A daily thrashing. Bush never fought back from the barrage of daily bad stories and his “job approval” numbers were terrible of course. As we see, they press still has their noses up Barack’s ass and refuses to do a thrashing as they did Bush so his approvals are higher. So the Trump affect is in place as the lamestreams thrash him and every word he says. They never ever give him credit for anything good and parse everything he says to get a negative. I think we are never ever going to see a positive for him as the lames do for Barack.

Todd, Trump was the first person to open a gay nightclub in the Miami area. Everybody said it was impossible, it would not fly. It is a thriving business run by a fantastic guy who happens to be gay. Trump also went against the grain in Palm Beach and opened the first and only private golf Course that was open to Jews and anybody at the time. He went against the bigots and anti-Semitism and homophobes.
Well, somebody is in hot water for saying this. The Orlando procesutor of all people. Go figure.
“Downtown Orlando has no bottom. The entire city should be leveled. It is void of a single redeeming quality. It is a melting pot of 3rd world miscreants and ghetto thugs. It is void of culture. If you live down there you do it at your own risk and at your own peril.
“If you go down there after dark there is seriously something wrong with you. Disney does everything in its power to shield visitors of Disney from its northern blight. That doesn’t change reality. Disney may be the happiest place on earth but Orlando is a national embarrassment. If this is an act of domestic terrorist it is so important that we don’t publish the religion, name, or motive of the terrorist as not to offend anyone.”

Brad. Yep, the Rolling Stones know how to provide security inside the concert hall. Never thought bikers would provide aid and comfort OUTSIDE for those peaceful souls leaving the friendly confines of the concert hall and thrust into the midst of very violent angry progressives and other hateful thugs that intend nothing less than bodily harm. Remember San Jose? Hundreds bloodied by the blood thirsty ruthless libs Hope the bikers (which mostly include off duty police officers) carry stun gernades. They, after all, took a sworn oath to protect and serve the people, whether they are on duty or doing it for fun and for free. I hope this lessens the amount of victims at the hands of those pieces of human debris who are so mentally ill they support Hillary. Sure, we should treat the mentally deranged with a wee bit of understanding, but we should also treat them accordingly to what they are: viiolent criminals with the mob mentality. Society’s scrounge they are.
