Holiday wishes.

I am hanging out with the fam and waiting on Santa.

This is a good time for you field hands to tell me what your Holiday wishes are.

Mine is the tried and true, "peace on earth and good will to all men." 

Well, almost all men.

  2. Happy Holidays, people. Even crazy progressives who piss on manger scenes, or those who celebrate made-up holidays whose only leg-up on Festivus is that they're older. Hope you and all your families are happy and safe.

  3. You are entitled to celebrate, or not, whatever trips your trigger.

    Happy Holidays, Josh? No Merry Fucking christmas peons? You and yours are the reasons America can't have nice things. You believe it is better to give than to receive-take from the poor and give to the koch bros. You believe in lending a helping hand-m if some poor family asks for help, they get the back of a wingnut's hand-just like jeebus sez in the good book.

    This is war. There are no timeouts to bury the dead or take care of the wounded. We let off, they flood the battleground with more stoopid cannon fodder, regaled with tales of all that money that will trickle down if only they just keep making the wealthy wealthier.

  4. Holidays present for America. This independent study of 50 state electoral integrity shows the SE part of the nation is traditionally on the bottom-right alongside Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania.

    My iowa and New Hampshire and a couple more liberal elitist states are the tops for electoral integrity.

    If you really,really really feel this way, I'd like to remind you to let up every once in a while and relax and forget. Remember how battle weary soldiers return home.

    The constant output of adrenaline needed to respond to the body's 'fight or flight' survival mechanism, under perceived or actual harm will do damage to your other organs, and not just the brain and nervous system, but all of the organs. So do yourself a favor and chillax :)

    and believe it or not, even as you write that, you're stressing the body's adrenal system.

    So faggedaboudid kid! What will be, will be ;)

  13. Colonel Corn,you realize you just made an own goal, eh? The integrity measure is of access, fairness and such...so as the percentage of white voters drops, the white politicians have to resort to gerrymandering, voter suppression and the like to maintain control. This adversely impacts the integrity score, thus proving the opposite of what you believed you were proving with that stat. Congratulations.

    Oh, and a happy season to all whatever they are celebrating.

  15. Whitey wingnuts ain't smart enough to see they need to force abort all non-white fetuses in order to remain the Whitestag. The disease ridden, drug addicted slob appointed Potus elect joined his butt buddy Pootin in being gracious cheaters-making fun of HRC and Dems. A few years from now the truth will get out that this was a bloodless coup led by treasonous right wing nutters with help from Russia and the FBI. Of course wingnuts will scream why didn't you say something about it when it happened, conveniently ignoring Dem calls for recounts and investigations.

    All of this is because wingnuts are too fucking god damn dumb to think for themselves.

  20. stumbled on a fun fact. The third verse of "O Holy Night" is as follows:
    Truly He taught us to love one another
    His law is love and His gospel is peace
    CHAINS HE SHALL BREAK FOR THE SLAVE IS OUR BROTHER
    And in His name all oppression shall cease
    Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
    Let all within us praise His holy name

    I thought it was odd to mention "slaves" in a Christmas song. Turns out the English lyrics for this French song were written by an American Unitarian minister from Boston in 1850. Undoubtedly an abolitionist, he couldn't help but point out that slavery wasn't too Christian. A little dig at the consciences of Southern white carolers, maybe. Couldn't have hurt.

    Downside: this verse isn't sung too much.

    Happy Holidays to all.

    One of us must knows what it means. Since it is I, that means I am smarter than you. As for affirmative action, which dumbass dubya 43 got into Harvard and Yale only because his Daddy was an Alum? Squeaked by with mediocre grades and somehow proved his MBA wasn't worth the paper it was printed on when all of his businesses, except the ones where Daddy's rich friends bailed him out, went belly up?

    If memory serves Obama graduated with honors and is a constitutional scholar. Dumbass dubya can't spell scholar. Drumpf can't spell dumbass dubya. Wingnut Potus candidates, richn white and totally fucking clueless.

  23. Dunthebeast, good point. However I feel Pence understands the limits to power and when the courts tell him something is unconstitutional, he will abide by their decisions. Drumpf has not shown any interest in following the laws or protocols of his office and goes about his merry way as if his word is law. Wingnuts foisted this creature upon us and now they must own it and get rid of it. And we must remind them of their duties every damn day of the year.

  24. Colonel Corn, so North Carolina, where the elections boards and such are overwhelmingly white, where the legislators are overwhelmingly white, and where the rules are used to oust black voters a week before the election, is ranked poorly for integrity. Your argument is that all those white people are incompetent? Or that the presence of minorities makes white people incompetent? Do tell.

    "Happy Holidays, Josh? No Merry Fucking christmas peons? You and yours are the reasons America can't have nice things."

    This is a clown who has never had to live behind barred windows and spiked fences to keep his "nice things" from being stolen by his Black and Hispanic neighbors, or just denies it.

    "You believe it is better to give than to receive-take from the poor and give to the koch bros."

    You realize the Koch brothers supported Hitlery?  No, you're not bright enough to be able to acknowledge facts which contradict your dogma.

    "You believe in lending a helping hand-m if some poor family asks for help, they get the back of a wingnut's hand"

    We expect the poor to stop doing things which make their situation worse.  Supporting them when they do is called co-dependency, and it's supposedly a Bad Thing... except when Black people do it, I guess.  Then it's "racial justice".

    "This is war."

    It's not a two-sided war.  If it was, you wouldn't have Internet.  You probably wouldn't have food, heat or running water, and you wouldn't have a heartbeat for very long.

    "The integrity measure is of access, fairness and such...so as the percentage of white voters drops, the white politicians have to resort to gerrymandering, voter suppression and the like to maintain control."

    Meanwhile, a Black-run voter precinct in Detroit registered 306 votes but collected only 50 ballots.  Some "gerrymandering".  Some "voter suppression".

    Noopid stiggers always project.


    "Whitey wingnuts ain't smart enough to see they need to force abort all non-white fetuses in order to remain the Whitestag."

    Margaret Sanger saw that a century ago.  The Progressive program was down with that for decades beyond, even into the 50's, 60's and 70's in places like Sweden.

    You should thank heaven for the pro-lifers, they're the only reason you still exist.


    "I thought it was odd to mention "slaves" in a Christmas song."

    You probably think it's odd to mention that chattel slavery was an African import to the Americas, but that's the truth.

    "Well lookee here- the koch bros pestilence has set up a school to teach Alinsky's Rules for Radicals to right wing nut jobs"

    If those rules are so nasty, why has your side been using them for 50+ years and making no apologies for it?

    "What a wonderful world this could be if we tried to prevent toddlers killing themselves and others with irresponsibly handled firearms."

    Indeed.  These accidents are most common among police officers and racial minorities.  If minorities were forbidden to possess guns, and the police went like the London bobbies once did and relied on armed citizens for assistance when needed, we'd get rid of the vast majority of those shootings.  White people have a gun culture which inculcates care, and minimizes such unfortunate things.  They are the only ones who can be trusted with them.

    "here is a story about Black women at NASA i'd never heard of until just now. These women were instrumental to getting John Glenn into orbit. I wonder why I had never heard of them before until today."

    Because they had nothing to do with getting anyone into orbit, that's why.  No NASA astronaut mentioned them in their memoirs.  This is revisionist history, Fake News.

    Not that you care, because BLACKNESS!

  47. Bozo,
    It may well be that Dwight was an abolitionist. Yet the reference to slavery or bonded labor dates back to the French poem. Saint Paul taught us in Galatians 3:28, “There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” This tells us that we are all equal as brothers and sisters in Christ when we are spiritually united in Christ. But in no way did this teaching promise to free any slave or servant from their bondage in this temporal life. Some would argue that Biblical sources were used to justify American slavery or to make docile the captive slaves. Nonetheless, it may have served Dwight very well to use this song as an anthem in the fight for abolition. His lyrics are perhaps more beautifully sung in English than a literal translation would be. It is difficult to conjecture what might have been his motivations in the choices of wording that he used.
    Here is a relevant discussion of the translation from the popular Biblical training found in the Road to Emmaus.
    Lastly here is that verse in the original French followed by a literal English translation:
    Le Rédempteur a brisé toute entrave:
    La terre est libre, et le ciel est ouvert.
    Il voit un frère où n'était qu'un esclave,
    L'amour unit ceux qu'enchaînait le fer.
    Qui lui dira notre reconnaissance,
    C'est pour nous tous qu'il naît, qu'il souffre et meurt.

    The Redeemer has broken every bond:
    The Earth is free, and Heaven is open.
    He sees a brother where there was only a slave,
    Love unites those that iron had chained.
    Who will tell Him of our gratitude,
    For all of us He is born, He suffers and dies.

    It's great that you and "mike from iowa" share such a nuanced view of politics Field, but he may quite possibly be the most debased poster ever to grace your blog.

    “Opinion is really the lowest form of human knowledge. It requires no accountability, no understanding.

  56. Oxford Dictionaries has selected “post-truth” as 2016’s international word of the year. . . .

    "No doubt POTUS could have won a third term!"

    Quite likely. That Trump could even have beaten a terrible candidate like Hillary was a surprise, given the unified and vehement oppostion of the Democrats, the media, and the establishment leaders of his own party. People genuinely liked Obama, regardless of their politics.

    Obama has always been more popular than his policies, which have consistently been rejected by the American electorate. He polls from ten to thirty points higher than any of his major policy initiatives.

    Why do you think this is so?

    I believe it is because he is black, or more specifically the right kind of black. Half-white, raised by whites, displaying a liberal white persona cloaked in a mask of blackness. Black America wanted a black President period. White America wanted a black President to prove we weren't racist. Obama offered a seemingly reasonable alternative in 2008 to the failed GOP. But once we got to know him, we realized he was not the guy to bring the country together and was too hampered by ideology to be an effective manager. Still, we couldn't bring ourselves to fire him 2012.

    And strangely enough, he probably would have beaten Trump in 2016. But by 2020, I think people will see these years in a different light.

    Obama will seem like the Messiah long before 2020. Before Bill Clinton declared for the Presidency, Lee Atwater and wingnuts were already trying to destroy his reputation because they feared he would be the nominee. Come 2020, every Democrat in the world will have a dirty dossier filled with the vilest crap wingnuts can imagine to make sure Libs are all smeared before they attempt to run. Then wingnuts will lie about it and say Dems do it too.

    >>>>>>>>>

    POTUS NEVER had a fair chance to do what he could have done because the racism in the US has always trumped what's best for America. Trump's election taught us that in spades, in addition to how deeply rooted misogyny is in the US. Especially among poor, white Americans. And though I did support POTUS in his second campaign, I STILL wish he had exited stage left after making history in 2008. I predicted and America has proven, that it wasn't mature enough to respect a Black president for more than 1 term.

    Obama being the most disrespected and threatened POTUS in history is a shame and stain that will remain with the USA indefinitely. And rightfully so! That leader of the free world moniker is wrongfully placed due in large part to the treatment of POTUS and Hillary!

    "Obama will seem like the Messiah long before 2020."

    Oh, that explains M-F-I's weird little tic there.  He's having a flashback.  Half of America was saying "Obamessiah" and the other half "Obamanation" by the 2008 election.

    What he doesn't realize is that his messiah is already THE most reviled president in living memory, and this is only going to increase as the contrast between riots, chaos and Black racial privilege under Zero and law, order and prosperity under Trump starts to seep into the broader consciousness.

    Zero has cemented his legacy.  It's a sculpture of a Black man on the National Mall, scowling his disapproval of everything that allowed him to be there, and perhaps the most ridiculous museum ever to receive public funding.

  66. I don't mean to be splitting hairs mike, but Obama was never a Savior. He was just another leader. That's why I used to call him President Moses. I think he did a pretty bang-up job of repairing and ameliorating at least some of the damage of the sadistic presidency of the shrub. Sadly one of his greatest achievements, that of restoring the dignity of our ship-of-state and caring for our delicate alliances now seems to be in danger of being scrapped. Fucking WWWIII is certainly possible. The way that maniac Trump thinks powered by all of the greedy, war pig neocons and arch-conservative ideologues that he has surrounded himself with... I shudder to think.

    If he had truly saved us all, we wouldn't be fucked right now.

    "POTUS NEVER had a fair chance to do what he could have done because the racism in the US has always trumped what's best for America. Trump's election taught us that in spades, in addition to how deeply rooted misogyny is in the US. Especially among poor, white Americans. "

    If racism always trumps what is best for America, how did Obama get elected twice? His re-election in 2012 came despite deep disatisfaction with a stalled economic recovery and the misadventures in Libya. Romney, for all his faults, was the most qualified economic manager to run for President in a century, yet "racist" America chose Obama.

    To blame Hillary's loss on misogyny is equivalent to blaming Bob Dole's and John McCain's losses on anti-crippled veteran bigotry. Many in America were looking for a female President; unfortunaltely for them one of the worst females in the country won the nomination. Hillary was just a terrible candidate - unlikeable, shrill, condescending, and unable to answer serious questions about her integrity and competency.

    Serious question, which President would really be more likely to get in a hot war with Russia, the one who eschews foreing adventurism, wants to reduce our presence in Europe, and wants to work with Putin to crush ISIS, or the one who destabilized Libya, wanted to ramp up the confrontations with Russia over Ukraine, called for massive cyber attacks, and would have doubled down on the disastrous effort to topple the Syrian goverment?

    Honestly, I feel much safer with an administration that has stated a desire to change our endless war and nation building policy that has, since Clinton in Bosnia and Somalia, Bush II in Iraq and Afghanistan, and Obama in Libya and Syria, entangled us in wasting blood and treasure on other people's wars.

  69. And still, had it not been for the Russians, the FBI and a whole party of wingnut liars plus electoral lack of integrity, HRC won this election in a landslide. You cheaters can't lie,cheat and steal worth a damn.

  72. "Fucking WWWIII is certainly possible. The way that maniac Trump thinks powered by all of the greedy..."

    The divorce rate is greater than half for the first time in history, in terms of "traditional" marriages. The divorced from reality rate has grown to epic proportions since Trump got elected.

    He's the fucking guy who's going to keep us OUT of a war. Hillary was foaming at the mouth to attack Russia, and she and Obama continue to egg Putin on, as they have to be dragged away from the spotlight. Trump is also the only president in decades who ISN'T controlled by the greedy! For fuck's sake. You Obama-supporting liberals pump your fists and pretend to be all about shit like OWS and the like, but Obama was the biggest corporatist in the history of the United States presidency! Hillary's donors were almost exclusively either (a) Wall Street moguls and greedy corporations, (b) second-world oil-rich theocracies that execute homosexuals and deprive women of basic human rights.

    I realize we live in special snowflake culture, wherein predicting the worst possible shit imaginable under Trump is some sort of virtue signaling to your pro-bros that you stand against all those right-wing things like war, Wall Street, anti-LGBT sentiment, etc -- which--and let's add a fat LMFAO!--Trump ALSO stands against!


    Poe's Law at this point.

  74. Just wondering, has there every been another POTUS IN HISTORY that has had as many side pieces turned wives than BOTUS? And Kennedy doesn't count because he wasn't stupid enough to marry TWO side pieces!

    "Obama has always been more popular than his policies, which have consistently been rejected by the American electorate. He polls from ten to thirty points higher than any of his major policy initiatives."

    The Left doubling-down on the “I have a black friend!” mentality is what led to 8 years of Obama destroying the Democrats, who are at their lowest point nationally in 150 years.

  76. I didn't predict WWIII, I just said it was more possible than it might have been otherwise.

    Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah,a Quirky Kwanzaa and a super solstice to all of you lovable maniacs. May we all see the New Year bring us blessings untold.

    But as far as supply-side, trickle down economics, if Trump has his way, the only thing we will see trickling any differently will be coal sludge in the Appalachian creeks, oil spills in California and the Gulf and muddy golf courses with 2,000 foot deep wells in rural areas where the people depend on their groundwater.

    People like Trump exploit their workers. They bring in guest workers. They depress wages. Trump doesn't care about the chamber maids and janitors at his hotels. Why should he? He feels entitled. Why wouldn't he just exploit our entire nation in much the same way given the chance?

    WW III is less probable with Trump than it would have been with Hillary.

    Obama says he could have won in 2016.

    After two failed terms, his slogan would have been: "Third Time's the Charm."

  80. "we"

    At no point in time have y'all--the "we" crew--ever tried to even construct the pretense of individualism. Everything is done in a pack, in a herd, with no one going in any direction without knowing they're amid the pack and its protections.

    In this respect, I give credit. Many collectivists, especially in the west, go out of their way to pretend they're not trying to exist in a monolithic cult; e.g. feminists and socialists. They love pretending they're individualists, but really they're just all part of the same herd with dreams of being the bellcow that leads it.

    You people don't even try to put up that phony pretense as an aesthetic. You're so supremely confident that being a cult is the right move for your race/ideology that "we" is literally a singular pronoun.

    Borg.

    It has nearly demolished your entire race and makes you appear as unlearned beasts propped up by better society, but you fuckers stick to it! "We." I commend you. From "'We' were slaves," when none of you have ever experienced it, to "'We' are being exterminated by white supremacy," when you're obviously still here, y'all cling to that monolithic identifier with great pride and pomposity.
