[Having lived in the LA area most of my life, Jo Ann and I have done our best to get excited about the Dodgers during our annual and singular homage to baseball – the World Series.  We feel that, even if you think the game is terminally boring, all patriotic Americans must submit at least once a year to the national sport.  Full disclosure – when they tied 7-7 last night, we gave up and watched an episode of 'Rake' instead.  The game's final score vindicated our decision ;-)   And then there's the utter joy and dancing in the streets by our progressive neighbors, for Mueller has finally indicted someone connected to Trump.  gjr]

    Brown wants to fight climate change, so where’s his first stop?
    “…an 11-day trip to Europe starting Saturday including stops at the Vatican and a United Nations conference in Germany.”
    Must be fun to be able to pick and chose what sort of bigots you can legally hang out with.
    Maybe while Brown is at the Vatican he can check out the wall that surrounds that place as well as the machine gun toting guards they have.
    No Mexicans there! Or Moroccans or other pesky low life.

    Hey, Warmers Check this out:
    Trump Vindicated: Now Even the UN Confirms That the Paris Climate Accord Was a Complete Waste
    The United Nations has officially confirmed what many of us, including President Trump, knew already: the Paris climate accord was a complete waste of space.
    As UN Environment admits in its latest Emissions Shortfall report, even when you add up all the CO2 reduction pledges made by all the signatory nations at Paris, it still comes to only a third of what is supposedly necessary to stop the world warming by more than 2 degrees C by the end of this century.
    According to UN Environment’s head Eric Solheim, the world is heading for disaster:
    “One year after the Paris Agreement entered into force, we still find ourselves in a situation where we are not doing nearly enough to save hundreds of millions of people from a miserable future. Governments, the private sector and civil society must bridge this catastrophic climate gap.”
    Another way of looking at it, though, is that President Trump’s decision to pull out of the Paris accord is now fully vindicated. Had the Agreement been ratified, the U.S. would have handed countries like China and India a huge competitive advantage over the American economy. But – as even the UN now admits – it would have made no discernible difference to the alleged problem of “global warming.” So what, exactly would have been the point?

    Donna Brazille spills the beans, thus validating my contention that the Clinton Political Machine is (was) more powerful than the DNC and the Democrat Party, with its tentacles reaching deep into the power centers of The Establishment, Government, foreign governments, the Non-Profit Industrial Complex, The Entertain Indusrty (including education) and, of course, the Liberal Media Industrial Complex.
    The Clinton Political Machine was more powerful than any political party in the history of our nation. It was a separate privately owned and privately run Machine, answering only to itself.

    Some haven’t really connected all the dots with how much the scope of this is really is but it will come. Scope on how far this reached out in the party. Unknowingly down to county parties who thought they were just being good soldiers not realizing a coup de tat had actually taken place by a power monger family.

    Here is my response to a Eugene Robinson screed in today’s SacBee. He is a black WAPO opinion dude with a huge anger issue against whites. His email is eugenerobinson@washpost.com
    “Reading your screed today in the SacBee has cemented my view of you as a true racist. You misrepresent what people say and twist it into a racial animus. Obviously, you hate white people and now we see it in this screed today. I am sad for you that all things are racial. Americans have done their best to make up for the ancestors who were slaveholders. Bit now you blame all whites, north, and south for that. The Civil War was about slavery but also about state’s rights. You need to do some reading. Anyway, if anyone keeps the country from healing after 150 years it is you and the whiners. Why don’t you write about Ben Carson, Clarence Thomas and Sheriff Clarke as examples of success? Oh, you just like to keep the pot boiling and are unable to even recognize their success. You are a outlier on race and I feel sorry for you that you are so blind. God help the country that people like you are so angry.”

    Yesterday, Nov 4, 2017 was the Revolution. The last Revolution I remember was memorialized in my mind by the song with the lyrics, “When the Revolution comes, there will be no more Nigga or Bullshit”, played often in my presence by a old acquaintance and co-worker. That Revolution brought us drugs, free love, and killed Beep-Bop.
    The Revolution yesterday was a day of joy for thousands of parents of our millennials. It was the day basements were emptied out all across America, excluding, of course, the basement dwellers who were grounded.
    This new Revolution with its call to grab the pitchforks, light the torches, and drive President Trump out of town on a rail is more like another song from the previous Revolution era; the Peggy Lee song “Is That All There Is?”
