A greate sci-fi writer's comments about the election. Jerry always has lots to say about politics and nearly all of it is spot-on.

If Dr. Jerry would hang around club more again, and perhaps he will, now that the election is over, I’d go back. But that’s another story.

While his written viewpoints are very concise, like many, when it became clear whom our crop of candidates would be, he let out a groan, a pun, and a great sigh. First, because he’d be expected to defend a crop of mostly morons running for president, and second, because the cult of Obama cares nothing for rational discussion. Which makes it very hard to debate issues, when the other side simply won’t engage in any topic, instead talking solely about a cult of personality.

One of my favorite writers.

They helped build the Reagan Party and they'll help again. Only this time we have to avoid the Country Club elements like Bush I and Bush II.

We say this after every defeat, and then proceed to do the same damn thing.

This, and the “Reagan’s biggest mistake” thread made me think of Asimov’s Foundation and Obama as the Mule.
