Despite media pressure, I don’t care about these things
The media hysterically demands that all Americans care about certain things. For Normals, though, these are the things about which you still don’t care. The anti-Trump media desperately wants me (and you, my fellow Normals) to care about a specific set of “very important things.” Because the media is hysterical,

Bookworm Beat 1/13/18 — the “shithole” illustrated edition and other stuff too

Dear Democrats: Stop projecting your racism onto Trump
If you’re looking for racism in the immigration debate, look to the Democrats who are projecting against Trump’s race-free words their own vile race hatred. Donald Trump disputes that he used the word “shithole” when referring to countries the citizens of which do not confer a benefit on America when

“Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?”
“Shithole countries” is accurate. The US deserves quality immigrants — and sick countries must stop using us as their sewer and address their own problems. “Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?” Did Trump really utter that sentence with reference to places such as El

Obamacare’s demise is one of the exquisite ironies of the Tax Bill
Given Obama’s years’ long shell game about whether or not Obamacare was a tax, isn’t it lovely to see the Tax Bill spell the end of Obamacare? On September 20, 2009, Barack Obama had an interview with George Stephanopoulos during the run-up to the vote on the Affordable Care Act

Different takes on the Trump effect on the media and #NeverTrumpers
A romance novel explains why Trump is destroying the media and a Jewish survival doctrine provides a road map for conservatives who want to win. These are strange times and I sometimes have a strange brain. That may explain why, in the days since the Alabama election, when I read
