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!
Don and David. Just two guys from Arizona who tend to get a bit ticked off about all sorts of things. So we've decided we need somewhere to vent -- and we will vent about anything. Mostly politics, but we'll talk about books, music, movies and anything else that strikes our fancy. We're also pretty big Springsteen fans (especially Don) so you're likely to see some videos here.. We hope you will let us know your thoughts about our rants -- but we promise to treat you fairly.

Decline And Fall
If you're old enough to recall the Cuban missile crisis, or have bothered to read a history of that time, you'll know that most of our top military men were prepared to start a nuclear war over Cuba.
But Kennedy said no.
Advisors of that same mindset now surround our Flaming Orange Anus in Chief.
And he ain't no JFK.
He is, rather, a spoiled child, with the impulse control of a toddler, and the intellectual curiosity of a single cell organism, wrapped up in the body of a bloated, bitter, senior citizen.
The silver lining to all of these dark, dark clouds, is that it might well be a relief to finally get rid of the CIA. Who needs 'em now? Trump is really smart--so smart he doesn't require intelligence briefings. After all, he has Putin to tell him what's going on...
And Vlad the Elector wouldn't mislead DonDon. Would he?
When Rome started to fall, I'm sure there were some sage old hands who believed that this was only temporary, that things would change back, that the Roman Empire was eternal.
Turns out it wasn't.
On the plus side, now that we have the Russians' stooge firmly in place with the full throated support of the GOP, whenever a Republican starts talking about patriotism and how much they love our country we can just laugh in their face.
