The Way I See It






Major league baseball broke a record for the first time in their 139 year old history last week.  In the game between the Baltimore Orioles and the Chicago White Sox, not a single fan fell asleep during the entire game.  Of course there were no fans present, but that’s beside the point. Major league baseball has gone from America’s national past time to America’s nap time




Former Governor, talk show host and all around blowhard Mike (I Need A Job) Huckabee sure has a way with words. Last week on a radio show he said “any drunken redneck can walk into a bar and start a fight” to which I say, yeah but a redneck drunk on Jesus can start a war.

.

A quick glance at this quote and some people would probably think it was made by a liberal talking about the looting in Baltimore this past week.  "While no one condones looting, on the other hand, one can understand the pent-up feelings that may result from decades of repression and people who have had members of their family killed by that regime, for them to be taking their feelings out on that regime."

Sorry wrong answer. That was Donald (I’m Not The Smartest Guy In The Room Even When I’m The Only Guy In The Room) Dumbsfield talking about the looting in Iraq in 2003. I guess looting is in the eye of the beholder.


The TeaNut Republicans and Faux News boneheads are trying their best to create a scandal out of the donor money given to the Clinton Foundation. The truth is that The Clinton Foundation has been releasing their donor list since 2008.

On the other hand, the George Bush Foundation raised $361.8 million dollars between 2010-2013 with no attempt at accountability or transparency. The Dallas Morning News has investigated the Bush Foundation and found donations not only from politically connected millionaires like Sheldon Adelson but also foreign governments like the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait. I guess scandal is in the eye of the beholder as well.




Stay tuned for future adventures.
