A (formerly) Far East located web site devoted to The Resistance, discussion of all things political, travel, women, golf, women,adventure, and did I mention women?
By highlighting the absurdity of the GOP attempts to gaslight the nation: Over at Trump’s propaganda network, they appear pretty unhappy about it. Gutfield is terrible. Kudos, however, to Betty Cracker for finding this and reporting on it. I dislike the expression “a hit dog will holler” because no one

It has been a year since the unwarranted and thoroughly evil insurrection against the Capitol occurred. “A mob breaking windows, kicking in doors, breaching the Capitol. American flags on poles being used as weapons, as spears. Fire extinguishers being thrown at the heads of police officers. A crowd that professes

I spent yesterday working on the site after we experienced a Denial of Service attack on Wednesday and Thursday. I’ve pretty well isolated where I think it came from and have taken proactive steps “under the hood” to keep it from happening again. Nevertheless, I am flattered that my modest

Among the many things I have come to despise our tea swilling, Galtian, Trump-humping, overlords for, is how they have ruined any celebration of national pride. Turning the American flag into a conservative litmus test of sorts makes it almost impossible to look at the symbol with a combination of

A quick post on the recent stunt by Florida’s legislature and deadly governor Ron DeSantis. Last June, I wrote a post about how today’s Republican party proves its resemblance to the apartheid government every day. In it, I noted, “What is also very much like South Africa, is the attempt

I am approaching what could best be described as the contemplative stage of life. Savoring the adventures and the victories, dryly musing about the things I should have done differently – or should not have done at all. Regrets? I have a few. However, I will never regret wire brushing

Today I saw something that made me truly despair for the future of this country. 124 former flag officers, several of whom I used to respect, had the unmitigated gall to put their names to a piece of shit, rather traitorous, letter. https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/fb7c7bd8-097d-4e2f-8f12-3442d151b57d/downloads/2021%20Open%20Letter%20from%20Retired%20Generals%20and%20Adm.pdf?ver=1620643005025&fbclid=IwAR0VuxO5QWIii8O-Z4Xp9Qu5-mMailCNVpKEmK3m0DjM_FqHIBoobPkdN4M One of the signatories is a former

Being the trendy, social media maven that I am (sarcasm definitely intended), I’ve gotten up and running on Tik Tok. Besides being a wonderful way to give Donald Trump the finger in 2020 – it has been really fun to see how creative a lot of people around the world

Personal choices are not always just between you and yourself. They oftentimes have very public consequences that impact millions. Nowhere is this more true than in the case of COVID-19, and the vaccines now available in increasing numbers to Americans. A writer named David Roth has written a thoughtful piece

If you are an American and watched what happened at the Capitol today – and are not outraged – then you are a defective person. And probably have been for a long time. Soonergrunt, long time commenter at Balloon-Juice, summed up these thoughts of mine very well. The list of
