House Democrat Dream Speech
My republican colleagues are right. I have never liked Donald Trump. I do not like vulgarians, bullies and liars. I began to dislike him when he challenged the citizenship of Barack Obama. I was living in rural Utah at the time and I can tell you, a lot of insufficiently educated people believed this treasonous … Continue reading
HITLER lite
For much of my adult life I held on to an uncharitable prejudice against ALL adult Germans living between 1920 and 1945. I believed that EVERY German was responsible for The Holocaust. Every one of them should have run across the street to save their friends. They all subscribed to the notion that Germany had … Continue reading
Why I Hate Republicans
WHY I HATE REPUBLICANS; EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM; INCLUDING THEIR GODAM CATS AND DOGS by Arthur Bacon Has a single republican come out vehemently against President Trump’s jingoist, racist remarks about freshman non-blond members of The United States Congress?

You Gotta Love Them Russians
My older brother studied mathematics at Stanford and then went on to read Philosophy at Harvard. He can explain quantum mechanics, Keynesian economics, Heidegger and Beethoven’s last quartets. I have always considered him THE most intelligent person I know and I love him dearly. However, back in 2,000 he voted for Ralph Nader. Later on … Continue reading
