Another Year Shot To Hell

Well, here we are at the end of another year...

Older? Sure.

Wiser? Uh...some of us, sure. Others, not so much.

Three years of the reign of the Flaming Orange Anus have taught us one thing:

There is no known bottom to the stupidity of certain Americans. Just when you think we've reached it, the trapdoor gives way, and there below us is the empty, unfathomable, darkness.

But hey, hope springs eternal, and there's always a chance, slight though it may be, that some folks will wise up.

Just don't bet on it.

Anyway, we head now into an election year that is bound to be the strangest one EVER.

Many lies will be told. Much money will change hands. Tweets will fly.

If you thought 2016 was odd, brace yourself for whatever Vladimir Putin and his minions in the Republican Party can come up with.

Don't worry. It's just the fate of democracy in the balance.

But first, let's all have a large flagon of New Year's cheer...we will definitely need it!

First Thing, Let's Hang All Of The Traitors

At some point, you have to draw the line. You know?

If you let people get away with the kind of stuff that Traitor Don and his Band of Republican Scum have been attempting to get away with...well, what will the next Republican president (God help us if there is ever another Republican president), presumably one smarter than this one (not a very high bar) try to get away with--and succeed?

So.

Time to get out the scaffolding. (I wonder, is the one used for all the conspirators in the Lincoln assassination in storage at the Smithsonian?)

Time to buy the rope.

Time to set things right.

Because some things are not "politics as usual."

Indefensible

Sometimes, when you go to the zoo, if the apes and monkeys are angry, they will fling their feces at you. (For any Trump supporters out there, feces means shit.)

Often, that's all they can think of doing when they get really, really agitated.

I was reminded of this today while watching clips of the Republicans questioning three noted law professors regarding impeachment.

Since their Orange Pig God has indeed committed various impeachable offenses, despite their loud, incoherent, spittle flecked protestations to the contrary, their position is completely indefensible.

So, as their meager deflections and inane arguments fall apart, there is absolutely nothing left for them to do but to start throwing shit, like the lesser primates they so eerily resemble.

Soon the Russian trolls and bots will no doubt join in and begin trying to slander each of the distinguished legal scholars as out of touch elitists, much to the delight of the "real Americans" who are quite comfortable in their bottomless pit of ignorance.

This is no doubt entertaining for their Oinker in Chief and his army of brain dead idiots, including the yes men and women at Fox News.

But it sure reflects badly on what our nation has become. One of our two main political parties has been taken over by some sort of brain eating prion disease.
