I feel so much better now knowing rich people will get richer and not have to give up their private islands thanks to the Republican tax bill. I can’t tell you how many sleepless nights I spend worrying that they wouldn’t be able to shop from the Neiman Marcus catalog this year.

I’m starting to feel as though we are sliding down a hill that leads to a French revolution in our streets. And I’m not sure but I wouldn’t be in the front of the line at this point.

Republicans are one helluva greedy, despicable bunch. And this time, Continue reading →

The white trash from Wasilla is once again giving hillbillies a bad name. Those of us who call Alaska home apologize profusely but let’s remember that we aren’t the ones who put her on the national stage. Continue reading →

How is it possible to raise three self-centered, useless users of air to become the POS people Don, Jr., Eric and Ivanka are? You would think that statistics alone would suggest one would turn out decent. But no. They are all the type of people that caused the French Revolution. Personally, I’m ready for a revolution. It would beat hell out of another year of privileged assholes raping and plundering our country of its assets and dignity. Continue reading →

There is a new commercial running on TV in which a fierce looking grey haired lady intones that she’s heard that at some point women just stop caring about how they look. She then strides out of her apartment looking even fiercer in heels and a face that could cut steel. And while I kind of can understand that some women still take that much effort well into their seventies and eighties, I still find myself wanting to scream at the TV, “Screw you.”

I think there should come a time when a woman can give up high heels, spanks Continue reading →

The good news is that Trump’s popularity rating is now the lowest of any president in US history, clocking in at about 32%

The bad news is that 32% of Americans still approve of this pussy grabbing piece of racist embarrassment. Have they simply given their brains over to Hannity? Continue reading →

For everyone worried about net neutrality, may I suggest reading a book instead of using the Internet. So far, the pussy grabber in the White House and his evil minions have not found a way to fuck that up. Continue reading →

I think the election in Alabama this week should end any discussion of the power of black women to call bullshit when they see it and correct the course when needed. I believe this is also known as, “Don’t piss a black woman off. She will make you regret it.”

Ask Roy Moore. He knows the consequences now. Continue reading →

For the first time since that November day when way too many (though not the majority) of American voters put the pussy grabber in the Oval Office, I woke up today with a slight smile on my face and a faint ray of hope in my heart. The light almost broke through after Virginia results but I feared those results might be an aberration. But even in Alabama, child molesters are beyond the pale. It’s nice to know we actually do have a bottom line we refuse to fall below. For awhile there, that didn’t seem possible. Continue reading →

All of Trump’s supporters seem to have some kind of blindness to his actual acts. How do you support someone who claims a right to grab a female’s pussy because he’s famous? Would your husband continue to support him if he grabbed your pussy? Or would he still drink the Kool Aid? And if you had a child in a mixed race marriage, how would you feel about Trump’s support of nazis and other racists? Do you think your relative would escape the Apocalypse that Trump and his racist buddy Bannon would like to start? Or go back to the Continue reading →

The big fuss being made over sexual harassment and abuse in the workplace is seeming to be not unlike the big fuss made every time some asshole with a gun opens fire in a crowd… it’s making a lot of headlines, generating a lot of hot air and resulting in absolutely nothing substantive being done. Are some high profile men losing their jobs, their status, their power? They are but the tip of the iceberg, being sacrificed for the betterment of all their male contemporaries. The noise will die down in the excitement of the holiday, men will go back Continue reading →
