Video of the day -- a pitiful embarrassment


Samantha Bee mourns/celebrates the self-destruction of a once-great political party (found via Crooks and Liars).  I hadn't realized the last debate was that godawful.  You could find a more dignified political process in a pack of baboons.  I shudder to imagine what the rest of the world must think of us as they watch such antics.

Absolutely. References to Trump's member? Childish sniping? Promises to gut important government offices? Promises to give the military illegal orders? It was a nightmare.

"Mitt Romney soiling his temple garments at the thought of a broken convention. " I think I want to have Samantha's baby.

I work with immigrants from all over the world -- Camaroon, Ethiopia, Russia, Ukraine, Columbia, Honduras, El Salvador, Italy, Algeria, Viet Nam, and China.

They all, without exception, think the US has lost its mind to even be considering this vulgar con man.

Ahab: People are comparing that debate to the Three Stooges. They looked about equally Presidential.

Jono: She gets in some great digs, but of course they give her so much material to work with.....

Shaw: No doubt the baboons would say the same. Well, I hope the inevitable Hillary landslide in November reassures them.

Please be on-topic and read the comments policy. Spam, trolls, and fight-pickers will be deleted. If you don't have a Blogspot account and aren't sure how to comment, please see here. Fair warning -- I reject all comments containing any of the following:

1. Support for transgenderism
2. Negativity about Brexit
3. Support for a military draft or compulsory national service

I am not obligated to provide a platform for views I find morally abhorrent. And obviously I'm going to delete anything which is just quoting what an "AI" said. I want to hear from you, not from the always-wrong hallucination machine.

No comments advocating violence against any specific identifiable individual, even jokingly.

Please be considerate -- no political or politics-tinged comments on non-political posts, and no performative cynicism. Finally, please remember that this is a personal blog whose main purpose is to encourage contact from people with similar interests and world-views to mine. I really don't much care for arguing and debating; if arguing and debating is what you want, there are plenty of other places on the internet which welcome that.

From now until the finalization of the election results, no comments claiming the Republicans (or Democrats) will or can "steal" the election. It's pointless to engage with such stuff, and it promotes defeatism, which makes people less likely to vote or otherwise be politically active.
