[Just happened to visit Nevada County Voices, an info website run by our favorite climate catastrophe czarina, Dr Anna Haynes.  It appears that since the passing of Russ Steele, RR remains as the sole active 'rightwing' website in these parts.  On her resourceful site we are properly relegated to the extreme right column that is off-page, so it will not surprise and offend the more sensitive eyes of her polite company visitors (a trigger warning pointer is provided).  I continue to note over the years that Dr Haynes' political spectrum remains one-winged.  Nowhere are her voluminous lists of left-leaning sites so identified.  I suppose all of those are like our self-proclaimed centrists Bob Crabb and George Boardman – politically vanilla, untinged and untrammeled by any shade of partisanship.  We are properly put in our place.  gjr]

    I guess that the truth is, if the country is in decline, Biden is the man for the job.

    Direct quote from Bernie:
    “If we do not win, I will strongly support the Democratic nominee…and hope and believe that others feel exactly the same way. Donald Trump must be defeated,”
    The opposition to Biden is nothing like the Republican reaction to Trump in ’16. As an example here’s a quote from Lindsey Graham,:
    “I don’t think he’s a reliable Republican conservative,” Graham said, just hours before former 2016 rival Jeb Bush also declared he would not vote for Trump. “I don’t believe that Donald Trump has the temperament and judgment to be commander in chief. I think Donald Trump is going to places where very few people have gone and I’m not going with him.”

    Just responding to the Doom and Gloom scenarios expressed on your blog about Bernie’s most ardent supporters threatening a Biden boycott with some examples of ’16 and Trumps defectors including Graham. Yes, I agree with your quote that “things sure do change in the world of politics” and making my assumption that passionate blats from Bernie supporters means little because Bernie will be all in for Joe and the vast percentage of his supporters will follow him.

    Behavior Like Chuck Schumer’s Threats Expose Flaw In Democrats Promise To ‘Return To Normalcy’
    “The hypocrisy of the left showcases that Trump is a not a different type of political animal, simply a different, and often louder, breed. This realization uproots the entirety of their 2020 election efforts and strategy to pin Trump as an unprecedented threat. If Trump is the only unruly political animal, then why are Schumer and Biden threatening Supreme Court justices and picking fights with voters.
    Schumer and Biden’s actions expose the deepest flaws in the Democrat’s 2020 election strategy — a complete inability to show a difference between their actions and Trump’s.“

    A reasonable question. Probably because of name recognition and incumbency.
    She could lose. Arizona is in the same boat as California, if you move enough Mexican nationals (plus their birthrate) to a state, it turns Democrat. Just look at the difference in ratios between 1990 and now.

    Demographic replacement is a brilliant strategy. If nothing else, they’ll definitely vote for whoever makes it easier to move family members to the US.

    Zeke, Zeke, Zeke…….why wait…….after all there’s no time like the present!

    EZEKIEL EMANUEL? WTF? Biden’s Coronavirus Adviser Wants to Die at 75.


    The bioethicist Ezekiel Emanuel — a prime architect of Obamacare — is the most famous person on the committee. Why is that important? Emanuel made headlines a few years ago by writing in The Atlantic that he wants to die at age 75 — younger than Joe Biden is today — and he thinks we should want that too. From his piece:
    Here is a simple truth that many of us seem to resist: living too long is also a loss. It renders many of us, if not disabled, then faltering and declining, a state that may not be worse than death but is nonetheless deprived. It robs us of our creativity and ability to contribute to work, society, the world. It transforms how people experience us, relate to us, and, most important, remember us. We are no longer remembered as vibrant and engaged but as feeble, ineffectual, even pathetic.
    That’s a terrible attitude about the elderly, a denigrating “quality of life” judgmentalism that deems the value of the old as having less importance than that of younger people.
    And here’s the irony. Who are most at risk of death or serious illness from the coronavirus? The very elderly Emanuel sees as having lives that are “feeble, ineffectual, even pathetic.”

    Zeke oughta get a jump on it now…..and while you’re at it take that greasy Chicago Pol brother of yours with you!
