So, not sure where else to put this. I'm having a difficult time getting a "feel" for this election. By all counts, my gut is telling me that Trump should win in a landslide, based on the enthusiasm I see at Trump rallies, and the lack of the same at Biden "rallies".

But I remain concerned as to whether this is just the area I...

The world is a terrible mess. Lives ruined, forces aligned against each other, and the threat of death constantly hanging over everyone's heads. So time to relax and watch a new episode of The Walking Dead! Just kidding, you guys... If you were looking to get away from round the clock news of *suppresses gag reflex* President Trump, you probably should have focused elsewhere than on this week's shockingly timely episode of TWD, where a sadistic, misogynistic, enigmatic, violent maniac has beaten the good guys into submission and is now demanding they give up their s---, threatening them with violence...

Phil Robertson's anti-gay comments aren't the only part of his interview with GQ causing controversy. The 67-year-old "Duck Dynasty" star was suspended by A&E Wednesday for calling homosexuality sinful — and putting gay people in same category as terrorists. While those quotes quickly went viral, it wasn't his only brow-raising statement in the interview; he also implied that African Americans were happier living under Jim Crow laws.

The stars of "Duck Dynasty" might be America's most popular TV family, but that could change very soon — because Phil Robertson has made some strong (and seriously offensive) anti-gay remarks that have sparked instant backlash. Speaking with GQ, Robertson lamented that when "everything is blurred on what's right and what's wrong ... sin becomes fine." So just what qualifies as sinful in his book? "Start with homosexual behavior and just morph out from there — bestiality, sleeping around with this woman and that woman and that woman and those men," he declared.

When all is said and done, much more will be said than done. And that, ladies and gentlemen, sums up the latest in the saga of Barry Bonds. He is not retiring and not changing his story. Barry is not going anywhere, except after Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron. Excerpts from the book "Game of Shadows" were released detailing allegations of extensive steroid use by Bonds from 1998 to 2002. The book, written by San Francisco Chronicle reporters Mark Fainaru-Wada and Lance Williams, makes Bonds sound like a walking pharmacy, alleging that the seven-time MVP took up to 10 performance-enhancing...
