Supreme Court Blocks Enforcement of Louisiana Abortion Clinic Law

YEEEHA.  This may mean Texas restrictions against the right of a woman to choose her own reproductive life may go down the toilet too.  I HOPE so.  It is why we MUST MUST MUST keep the presidency in Democratic hands, take the Senate and yes, even overturn the House.  This actually could really be a great country again!!!!

WORK YOUR POSTERIORS OFF FOR DEMOCRATS TO KEEP THE PRESIDENCY, TAKE THE SENATE AND OVERTURN THE HOUSE.  THIS IS A SHOT IN THE ARM FOR US...NOT A WIN BUT BETTER THAN LETTING THOSE RIDICULOUS RESTRICTIONS AGAINST CLINICS STAND.  THEY CARED NOTHING ABOUT PROTECTING THE MOTHER AND ONLY ABOUT THEIR RELIGIOUS CRACKPOT BELIEFS THAT WOULD RELEGATE WOMEN AGAIN TO QUACK ABORTIONISTS AND OFTEN DEATH.  THIS IS A SEPARATION OF CHURCH STATE NATION OUR FOUNDERS MEANT IT TO BE.  RIGHT WINGNUTS GET A SET BACK AND NONE TOO SOON FOR ME.  IT IS WHY WE MUST KEEP THE PRESIDENCY IN DEMOCRATIC HANDS AND TAKE THE SENATE AS THERE MAY BE THREE JUSTICES WHO WILL LEAVE AND THREE VACANCIES TO FILL WITH LIBERAL OR LEFT OF CENTER QUALIFIED JUDGES!

Donald Trump's Policies Are Not Anathema to U.S. Mainstream but an Uncomfortable Reflection of It

BRILLIANT article. It reminded me of my feelings when I read J. William Fullbright's book "Arrogance of Power" in the late 1960's. I wanted to distribute copies of it to everyone on the street.

This nation, at least 1/2 of it, is in full fledged psychological denial. Torture? Who us? No way! I carried the flag on Flag Day at my school in 1957. Will the empire fold in my lifetime and bring in a state of humanitarian renewal? It's my hope no matter how far fetched it may be.

Hillary's Server NOT hacked

No hacking has been found on Hillary's email server. It seems to be much ado about nothing. As a matter of fact the State Department got hacked but Hillary did not. In the final analysis she was probably smart to get her own personal server!!

Thursday Night Fights

The torturous Republican debate fiasco yesterday was the worst of all the Republican debates aired. I do not know how, on planet earth, anyone with even 1/4 of a functioning brain could feel proud of our nation or proud of themselves for even considering to be a part of a Republican Party that is such an EMBARRASSMENT.

The entire world is laughing at us that those who support this insanity would vote for such low life in their run for the highest office in the land. It is beyond my comprehension. This depravity is not relegated to Trump alone although he surely is the impetus for it. The profanity and shouting blather between the "candidates" was sometimes about, if one can believe it, Trump's genitalia size and how proudly exceptional to him it is.

The other Republican candidates with the exception of Kasich were nearly as verbally filthy as Trump. Is this the nation that has the most powerful military in the world, whose leader can, in one second, decide to blow it all up and make decisions that will haunt us for decades if not centuries? Someone MUST stop this insipid vulgarity before all of us, your children and their children are destroyed along with our beloved nation.

No other nation will capitulate to Trump's bombastic bullying. They will fight back, including Mexico, our ally, who will refuse to capitulate to Trump's wall fantasy and to making Mexico pay for it. Those who are really enjoying this are ISIS and its cohorts. It would give them every excuse they need to drastically hurt us. Then what would Trump do -- send in the Marines to fight and die in eternal war? Funny that blowhard never served one second in the military or put his life on the line.

It is a matter of time before someone gets killed when Trump speaks. In Detroit, yesterday, outside of the Fox theater where the debate was being held there was a huge rally of persons of color and others who support them. I wish I could have joined them in their outrage. Did the Fox network show that to us? NO of course not. None of the millions Trump wants to round up will go down peacefully like lambs to a fascistic slaughter. They WILL fight back. AMERICA WAKE UP. YOU ARE BEING HAD!

CONTINUE TO WORK HARD FOR DEMOCRATS EVERYWHERE AS IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDED UPON IT BECAUSE IT DOES!

Democratic Presidential Convention--On to November

  I watched the Democratic convention last evening until my body's demand for sleep overtook me around midnight.  Having followed thin...
