Is that Vincent Price in character as Dracula handing out No Doze to the crowd at the Republican debate? It could be Cal Thomas, but I get them confused.

Enough is enough
People of America. We need to say enough is enough! Enough of the divisiveness that tears us apart. Enough of the greed that keeps the majority of us floundering.
Enough of those that are sanctimonious and religious that tear our souls apart for their own personal gain. Enough of the control by men in power that try to keep women in “their” place. Enough of the aggression brought about by those that have shirked their duty to keep our country safe by not serving it themselves but willingly send others to war.
Enough of those that thrive in their monetary abundance but hate those that have to beg for a crumb.
This is not the America our founders envisioned. This is not the America I envision.
When it comes time for you to make a decision a year from November remember the motto “Live free or die.” It’s unfortunate that is what it’s come down to, but that is where we stand. America stand tall for all!
Trump tapping Palin? Does he get points for that?
Donald Trump has said he would tap Sarah Palin for a job in his administration, should he be elected.
Palin is, of course, that think tank specialist, vociferous reader of the See Dick Run series (run all 17 of you, run) who has Superwoman vision and can see Russia from her bear skinning outhouse in Alaska.
Remember a couple of years ago when European leaders were disgusted to find out that their phones had been tapped by the NSA?
German Chancellor Angela Merkel was particularly upset about it.
You might have thought she would have been happy that someone at NSA would have looked at her picture and said, “Yeah, I’d tap that.”
Please, someone crack a window
The Confederate flag means nothing to most people other than maybe a dipstick or two eating Van Camp’s baked beans out of a can with a plastic spoon and squeeze cheese on a saltine while sitting with two guys in a pickup truck and listening to some country fuck sing a song about Merica while the three geniuses argue about whose fart stinks worse.
It was yours.
No, yours.
Someone pull Donald Trump’s finger.
Well, give him a chance to take it out of his ass first.
Nigel Travis, the Slickster Hoser of the Day
I love Dunkin Donuts, but this hosehead made $10 million in 2014 and he’s complaining that the company may have to give some DD workers an almost liveable wage.
In the company’s 2014 annual report to stockholders, CEO Nigel Travis said that since going public in 2011, DD had returned $860 million to its shareholders.
In its latest report filed with the Securities Exchange Commission, DD says it generated $149 million in revenue in the 2015 second quarter alone.
DD has 11,306 franchises worldwide and has started building new ones in California this year. Its stock sells at $53.82 a share.
Travis says increasing the minimum wage from $8.75 to $15 per hour in New York, will kill the company’s small franchise owners. He also says fast food companies are being picked on.
Quick, hand me a hanky. I’m getting all weepy.

Get off Tom Brady’s ass
Deflategate, smegateflate (you get the idea) has run its course and the gas bag in the front office at NFL headquarters should be ashamed of himself for the way he has treated Tom Terrific. I haven’t seen this much flack since the Argonne in 1918.
This is a picture of Tom Terrific holding up a Super Bowl Trophy. He’s done it four times now. Roger Goodell couldn’t find his own ass with both hands and a road map, so he decides to try and run a smear campaign against the best quarterback in the history of quarterbacks.
Everyone knows Tom Brady. He’s not just a a great quarterback. No. He’s much more than that. If Goodell took his head out of his general rectal area and did some research, he’d find that Tom Brady cured polio, invented bacon, was involved in the development of Cheetos, came up with anesthesia, churned out the first spoonful of butter pecan ice cream and gave it to a little boy after performing the first painless tonsillectomy on a child, wrote Stairway to Heaven, was Joe Frank in the band Hamilton, Joe Frank and Reynolds; once shot a man just for snoring, put the crunch in Nutty Bars, convinced chocolate gurus at Mars that mauve was not a good color for M&Ms, dispatched of Mussolini, patented Donald Trump’s hair mousse, dated Ginger, Mary Anne, Veronica and Betty at the same time and hasn’t seen that spirit here since 1969. Oh, yeah, and in his down time, he won four Super Bowls.
Get a grip Roger.
Damon out.
OK (but reluctantly)
Sample this.
Paul Ryan should be so proud.
From the Washington Post’s Dana Milbank concerning the Republican’s intent of giving tax cuts to the wealthiest two-tenths of 1 percent.
” GOP leaders such as Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky and House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio have begun to recognize that the vast gap between rich and poor is detrimental — and to blame the problem on President Obama. Their solution, so far, has been to propose cuts of hundreds of billions of dollars from food stamps, Pell grants, Medicaid and other programs for those without means — and give $269 billion to the few who already have the most.
“It sounds to me like there’s a lot of wealth envy in this country,” Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-N.C., complained while serving as chairwoman of the Rules Committee debate Tuesday. The bill abolishing the estate tax, she said, “will draw a line in the sand.”
Yes, it will: between the wealthiest two-tenths of 1 percent — and everybody else.”
OK (but reluctantly)
The comedians across the aisle have attacked Hillary Clinton about her age. I particularly liked the one about her discovering fire. Lot of knee slappers there.
All I know is that the music played at this year’s version of CPAC was so old that at one point I thought an announcer was going to break in to say that the Japanese had bombed Pearl Harbor.
