political clowns

 poor georgie’s almanack: 

I can’t keep up with these clowns.  

The more I lower my expectations the more I fall behind.

poor georgie’s almanack:

What we don’t know.  
The Russians bought the election for a pittance.  

The lobbyists (using clients’ money) bought Congress and state legislatures.  

What have China, North Korea, Saudi Arabia and Iran purchased?  

And what’s left in your wallet?

poor georgie’s almanack: 

I was surprised today when I clearly heard a woman cite a survey that reported a total of 54 million nuns in the USA.

GOOD NEWS!

poor georgie’s almanack: 

It only took four words by George Will, of all people, to announce the only good news so far this month. 

 “Pitchers and Catchers report.”

praying or preying

poor georgie's almanack:

From the vowels of Capitol Hill. 

The closed captioning on the TV screen says the NRA-funded Senator is praying.  

I know that he is preying.

Prosperity

poor georgie’s almanack: 

What our children learned today …  

“Cheaters never prosper.”  


Of course, white presidents are exempt.

Immigration, Groundhog Day 1903 and 2018


poor georgie’s almanack: Groundhog Day redux 

THE IMMIGRANT plus HIGH TIDE OF IMMIGRATION — A NATIONAL MENACE from JUDGE Magazine (1903). 

What if they were turned back, you never were you, and all you did for your country they didn’t? 

This whole debate is about your elders, you and your kids, not just about you. 

Think about it before repeating some Russian bot.
