D’ere, d’ese, d’em ’n d’ose democrats...
…or should we call ‘em Dimocrats…must admit the urge to refer to Democrats as Dimocrats is more ’n more with me these Autumnal daze…Millyrose just rolls her eyes when I make smart-ass remarks about Democrats, especially if I pick on Jerry Brown who has always been a favorite of hers ’n she has never approved of the late Mike Royko’s nick-name of ‘Moonbeam’ Brown which sounds like it came from the talented pen of the late ’n mostly unlamented Al Capp, the acerbic author ’n artist of L’il Abner ’n the citizenry of Dogpatch, USA…
Anyway, one of our Dimocrat friends (See, I just cudn’t resist, it’s just not in me) questioned whether or not I actually watched the Dimocrat Debate (Debacle) as orchestrated by Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (I did, tho’ it didn’t actually resemble any actual debate that I’ve ever witnessed)…which was about as much as I said to my (Dim) friend for fear of antagonizing She who must be obeyed who warns me over ’n over not to engage in political or religious discussions with those who might disagree with me (j’ever try having a friendly argument with someone who agrees with you)…
Anyhow, on Meet the Press this morning, NBC’s version of ‘fair ’n balanced’ Chuckles Todd took a few moments to point out the political differences between republican ’n dimocrats as demonstrated by the competing debates; The evil republicans argued among themselves (very definition of a debate) over issues like ISIS, Afghanistan ’n the middle East in general, the state of the US economy versus the European economy, the influx of refugees in Europe and immigration policies here ’n there, American jobs ’n trade policies, violence in the streets,which lives matter most, etcetera while the more civilized Dimocrats were primarily and righteously concerned with abortion rights, the war on women, ‘free’ education, welfare for illegal immigrants and how best to take money away from the evil moneychangers in the Temple of Wall Street…
Oh,and how Hillary came away as the obvious winner of the debate because, as Bernie Sanders pointed out, “The American people are sick and tired of hearing about her damned e-mails.”…
He tended to overlook the fact that line itself sounded as though it had been scripted by DNC scriptwriters ’n that the obeisance shown by Chaffee ’n O’Malley, the obvious ’n blatant disregard of Jim Webb by the ‘unbiased’ moderator, made the term debate false, nothing more than an artifice to display the good humor of Hillary in the face of republican animosity…
Now, as I’ve been told, I’m old ’n more’n somewhat irrelevant, being that I somehow epitomize the rich,old,white basic element of the imploding Republican Party (I’ll admit to being old ’n white) but I believe that the fact that Republicans can come up with a dozen and a half qualified applicants for the job of POTUS and that we’re not only willing but begging for them to gather somewhere and argue why anyone should vote for a particular one of them is a good thing…’n I don’t believe that Wasserman-Schultz annointing Hillary ’n not allowing a dissenting voice is good…fact, I think it’s basically unAmerican!
And for all those who managed to read this p’tick’lar rant all this way ’n maybe expected more of me…sorry, this’s all I have on this overcast Sunday...
