Clowns are more intelligent. This is closer to the attitude of entitled three year olds. (Way worse than the terrible twos)

This one as well

Team Biden needs to play this on a continuous loop

I will admit that if I took the wayback machine back to 2016 and Trump was the Democratic nominee and his opponent was Ted Cruz. I would more than likely be tempted to sit it out. But would probably reluctantly vote for Cruz.

Give em Hell Joey

As one who had stammering issues when younger that seems to be an underlying issue. Now it's age and sometimes I just can't remember stuff fast enough. What was interesting, I spent most of my career as a jock or reporter. I knew what I was going to say, no stutter. In casual conversation when I was comfortable I did tend to studder a bit.

They need to add a round of answering basic questions on government and the constitution. Use some of the citizenship test questions, then spice it up a bit. The candidate giving the wrong answers gets slimed. That might make the whole thing worth watching.

Another documentary worth checking out, Chuck Leavell, The Tree Man. probably the best rock pianist around. Played with the Allman Brothers in their prime, toured with the Stones and served as their musical director, founded Sea Level, not to mention recorded and toured with Clapton, John Mayer, Govmt Mule,among others. He's also a tree farmer in Georgia and co founder of the Mother Nature Network.

And a solution to "Half Backs" settling in Western NC apparently as well

I'm old enough to remember when certain parts of the Republican Party were torpedoing George Bush's proposals for boarder security and pathways for citizenship. Remember his "jobs Americans don't want" comments...

I have a feeling that's one of my nephew in law's attitude. We've never discussed politics. They live on farm property in rural SW Va, he's built himself a range there. He seems to like long range rifles.

Don't let him back in. He's a spy

I'm seeing a bit of discussion about Fast Car and Luke Combs. I like this pairing and the fact that Combs had wanted to record Fast Car since he was introduced to it by his father many years ago. I'm now seeing that the Tracy Chapman album with Fast Car is one of the top downloads this morning, introducing her to a whole new group.

I'm just some old fart sitting in Virginia. I have no clue. All I know is since 2009 anything a Democratic President proposes it will be opposed by the opposition. While Republicans yell and scream and all they accomplish is tax breaks for rich people. By the way anybody notice that a large number of new home construction workers are Hispanic?

Trump had a Republican Congress for two years, 2017-2019, and didn't do a damn thing about the Mexican crossings other than halfway build a half assed wall. No legislation dealing with businesses that intentionally hire illegals or anything resembling funding for enforcement. They only made it harder for seasonal workers who in the past have been legally entitled to enter the country on work visas. Making it harder for seasonal businesses (see hotels and restaurants in tourist friendly workers to find help). They had their chance, they blew it and if they get another they'll blow it again. These will be the same people complaining that "nobody wants to work anymore"

I didn't catch much of the show but viewing the clip of 80 year old Joni Mitchell doing Both Sides Now and me reflecting on how the meaning of the song changes as we age was something special. Cudos to Brandi Carlisle for befriending her and introducing Ms Mitchell to a new audience. In fact I think I prefer the older almost tenor Ms Mitchell to the younger soprano version. The Luke Combs/Tracy Chapman duet was also pretty special

I looked it up it is plus 7. At my age I'm probably better off with the older number. edit I've been married for 45 years, so it doesn't matter.

Dean Phillips finished third to Maryanne Williamson who is rapidly becoming the Harold Stassen of the Democrats.

Definitely fits within the calculus of half my age plus 15 category.

No Buddy's or Little Caesar's...what a cheapskate.

Dear Jim, When you get around to answering your subpoenas I'll think about this. until then stuff it where the Sun doesn't shine Respectfully, Franni
