*INQUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW*

*Why in the heck are republican congress critters so scared of Hunter Bidens wanger doodle?

*Why is it rump can't quote one verse of the Bible he claims to love but he can quote Hitler and Mussolini all day long?

*Why is it Russia and Republicans share a common history of a disregard for life and a lust for blood and destruction?

*If ignorance is bliss, why are the republicans so damn depressed?

*Is the NY Times at 172 years old too old to be an effective newspaper?

*Finally, cats are very intuitive. Why don't black cats cross trump's path?

- Because they are afraid of pussy grabbers.

My wife once sat next to Barbara Billingsly (June Cleaver) at a Kansas City hair salon. She was a knockout. A working actress. A formidable woman fully immersed in the world. She would've shouted "fuck the 'trad wife' bullshit!", as would have Hugh Beaumont (Ward). Let me echo that sentiment.

***FACTS THAT PROVE THE ‘AGE ISSUE’ IS TOTAL MALARKEY***

Fun Fact 1: If Dumbo is elected and lives full term, he will end up being the oldest president ever, right? Then why the hell is there such a big deal about the useless “AGE ISSUE”, knowing that whoever is elected will end up being the oldest president ever? Besides that, Biden is an effective leader, and dump is of course………..dump.

Fun Fact 2: The age of the last three presidents to die were Bush1 – 94, Ford – 93, and Reagan – 93. Current living Presidents are Carter – 100 this year, Clinton, Bush2, and dump all 78 this year. Obama is 63 this year and President Biden will be 82 two weeks after the election.

Fun Fact 3: The current average longevity of men is 78, by which metric the last three presidents to die outlived the average by +16, +15 and +15 years respectively. Jimmy Carter has outlived the average by +22 years. The healthcare afforded Presidents is the very best in the world in and out of office.

Fun Fact 4: Dump will achieve average longevity this year at 78, and we all know he is below average in all things except his weight. He does fit the profile of an unhealthy lifestyle, which could leave him with a below average age at death. All of this may mean absolutely nothing, but then again, at a minimum, some fun facts and something to think about. What do you think?

I prefer to have a President who just attends to his job, without the need to create chaos several times a day.

Why does the "Republican" party continue to insist that women be relegated to doing the dishes? I'm past 65, and I dont know one single female who buys into this bullshit. Here's the thing. If that's what you want to do, go for it, but do NOT force that lifestyle on the rest of us. It's laughable they think they can force this archaic lifestyle. And troubling there are women like Katie Britt promote it. 🤦‍♀️

I gotta tell ya the Scarlett bit on SNL was one of the best cold opens I’ve seen… Reading the con press this morning… well… they are just shitting bricks over her performance….then the cons complain that SNL is not watched by many, that SNL doesn’t ridicule our president, that the only woke folks watch SNL… all I can say is FU… cons got to get a life or should I say MAGA get a life… They are devoid of humor, candor, honesty, critical thinking skills… I had a MAGA gym associate speak disparagingly about the SOTU thinking I was on his side, shocked him when I said our president was brilliant last night, then he went off defending MGT clown outfit while condemning the reps wearing those checkered scarfs…I said both are products of their constituents…man that guy was pissed… I told him do not talk politics with me ever. Best to you Jeff and fellow travelers👍

Scarlett J. did such a great job of being Katie Britt. The resemblance was uncanny. It was nice of Colin Jost to let his wife participate.

Please forgive the long post but those TV shows have never reflected the reality I grew up in, nor does this present day nostalgia for a time period match my previous experiences.

The much maligned 1950s is when movements like the next wave of feminism and civil rights began. They didn't spring out in the 1960s from nowhere. Yes, most of the mothers were home during the day in my neighborhood but they were equal partners with their husbands and often working at night while their spouses did the child care. The women I grew up with used the kitchen only to cook in, and I have fond memories of my mother baking. She also returned to school, got her degree, and went to work for a startup to help women find employment. After much hard work and initial resistance from the powers-that-were, my aunt became the first female VP of a major corporation in 1964. My grandmother got her driver's license in 1934 to help my grandfather run their small grocery store. They, and others in my extended family, were all very much equal partners in child rearing and working.

Yes, the women would run into sexism and snide comments but they let no one stand in the way of their goals. AND, this was very typical of 90% of the men and women in the blue-collar neighborhood I grew up in as well. Both spouses worked and took care of the kids.

My overall point is that I'm sincerely not sure what is the goal here? Why this headlong rush back to an image that never existed outside of Hollywood? Leave it to Beaver was not my reality. I'm sure for others in a rural setting, Green Acres wasn't either.

Step outside and you can feel the vibes of fed up women, all over the planet. Fed up due to a millenia of being subjugated, murdered, raped, and diminished, constantly, by men, of which btw there are fewer of, on the planet than women. Even more insulting, are those spineless, obsequious, power hungry bitches, who have not one tiny bit of hesitation to stab their fellow sisters in the back, on their way up the political fellatio ladder to grab a hunk of the power pie, no matter how much it hurts women in general. Britt, like Haley, and too many to list here, is just another back stabbing bitch looking in the direction of money and power, and a few facelifts, while the rest of women are paid less, and treated like breeding machines and receptacles for the pleasure of preferably men only.

Step up, ladies, or it will get worse.

I’d also like to remind everybody that Donald Trump can’t serve two consecutive terms which is what the Republicans ultimately want. Also, they put Katie Britt on TV because I think she’s the last woman in the Republican Party that most Americans weren’t aware of. They just keep showing us how much nothing they actually have #RepublicansAreAlwaysAlwaysTheProblem

Tub-o-shit is just that. Creating middle class jobs defends the family. Who was it that separated families at the border? Oh, those people don't count because they aren't affluent white people?

Republicans lie like dogs. Their lives and careers are built on lies. The biggest, fattest POS in the Republican Party is a lie and total scam.

Vote Democrat. Most of them want to do their job and help the American people. They are generally honest about their mistakes.

Vote Republican and get scammed.

My head is still spinning over how the rock-ribbed, freedom loving, commie hating Republican Party became the clueless, gullible, Putin loving, chronically dishonest, ChristoFascist party.

So Britt is nothing but a Judas goat, leading women to their entrapment. The hypocrisy is so fucking blatant: she holds a seat in one of the most powerful bodies on Earth: presumably, she wasn't chosen at random by Alabama to be half of their Senate delegation, so we presume she's educated beyond high school (don't bring up Handy Boebert), and has actual political experience, not j a stay at home mom, (childcare?). This would be like Trump promoting Peleton.

Someone who writes a Substack post mentioned that the tradwife voice can also be heard when Michelle Duggar speaks. OMG!! These submissive white “Christian” women sicken me!! 🤮
