” It was magnificent watching the Clinton News Network (CNN) robots on auto cue scurrying around like asphyxiated roaches...”
I like that mental image. LOL.
I think Clintons poor health has been (unsuccessfully) covered up. I don’t think she will physically make it to 2020.
Great essay.
“Legal costs to society are More Egregious and less excusable than medical costs, and produce far less desirable results.
The criminal Justice System is an unspeakable cesspool. Here government can do something”
In the “OLD DAYS” lawyers were known as Priests and/or Scribes...Same “rip off” profession, different names thru history..I.E.-—Recall why Ol’ Martin posted those things on a church door?
I liked that part about Clinton - “discharging presidential business”
The Obamas might be history, but the Clinton and Bush clans are far from through.
Chelsea is already being “groomed” for a senate run, Jebbie is still not too old to try again, and they have another Bush getting started, George P is it?
Neither is out of our hair yet, we’ll hear from them again., I probably won’t be around to see Chelsea try it, that will take another few years, but someone from the Bush family is bound to try in 2020, and I might be here to have to deal with that...
This is not the final curtain, just a setback.The one thing still out there that might finish off the Clintons, will Trump have a special prosecutor go after them? I think he will, he hasn’t forgotten, he just has more important things to consider for now. Like getting a good AG in there who will do the job...
Ann Coulter for Press Secretary!
I couldn’t believe they wouldn’t call Florida until the west coast states of CA, OR, and WA could be called for Clinton, without one vote being counted in any of those states so the totals could both be over 200.
. . . Standards of information and education have withered. The American people, and most other advanced nationalities, are less well-educated and less well-informed than they were 50 years ago. The teaching and academic professions and the journalists have failed. They have not failed completely, of course, and there are many individual exceptions, but they do not get a passing grade. Government can do something about the schools but can’t really touch academia or the free press without threatening the foundation of free society. There is no obvious solution.
People of the same trade [e.g., journalists] seldom meet together [e.g., virtually over the AP “wire”], even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices. It is impossible indeed to prevent such meetings, by any law which either could be executed, or would be consistent with liberty and justice. But though the law cannot hinder people of the same trade from sometimes assembling together, it ought to do nothing to facilitate such assemblies; much less to render them necessary. - Adam Smith, Wealth of NationsIt is patent that the Associated Press - indeed, that every wire service - constitutes a virtual meeting of journalists, and should be discouraged if not essential. And the mission of the wire service - economizing on the use of scarce, expensive telegraph bandwidth in the dissemination of the news - is obsolete when every Tom, Dick, and Jane can afford enough Internet bandwidth as to have been, in living memory, competitive with the capacity used by the AP.Antitrust action is indicated. Not only so, but the FCC should be debarred from granting broadcast licenses to stations which broadcast programming which purports to to virtuous - either wise or objective. It is admirable to try to be objective. It is even acceptable to claim to try to be objective. But the claim of actually being objective is arrogant and self-negating.
- sophist
- 1542, earlier sophister (c.1380), from L. sophista, sophistes, from Gk. sophistes, from sophizesthai "to become wise or learned," from sophos "wise, clever," of unknown origin. Gk. sophistes came to mean "one who gives intellectual instruction for pay," and, contrasted with "philosopher," it became a term of contempt. Ancient sophists were famous for their clever, specious arguments.
- philosopher
- O.E. philosophe, from L. philosophus, from Gk. philosophos "philosopher," lit. "lover of wisdom," from philos "loving" + sophos "wise, a sage."
"Pythagoras was the first who called himself philosophos, instead of sophos, 'wise man,' since this latter term was suggestive of immodesty." [Klein]
Let’s hope so.
BUMP!
Everyone here should read

“I think Clintons poor health has been (unsuccessfully) covered up.”
The man who shot the video where she spazzed out and they threw her in the van on 9/11 said he turned off his camera too soon. After that, he said he saw her flopping around in the back of the van.
