Shhhhhh Patriots. Let 'em think they got this.
Just like 2016 all over again. Believe all your false hopes. Lap up your misleading polls.
In the end the only thing that matters is the poll that is on November 2nd.
You boasted that the Trump rally fizzled. You claim he got punked by teenagers. You believe everything the Trump hating networks tell you. Go on keep on believing and don't face reality.
Fox news had their highest ever rating for a prime time Saturday. EVER !!
The most important data point is that, while people may have been scared away by the media and the protesters, that doesn't mean Americans weren't interested — incredibly interested:
So keep on spiking the ball while you have net even gotten to mid field yet.
The best is yet to come !!!

The trouble with chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine...
There are drugs used to treat malaria... chloroquine and its less-toxic cousin hydroxychloroquine that have been around for decades. President Trump named these drugs (in press meetings and Tweets) as promise to treat COVID-19. Federal health officials issued warnings the drugs are NOT approved to fight COVID-19 and could come with serious and harmful side effects.
In the news this morning, already there has been a run on these drugs that have been used to treat people with lupus as it's created a shortage.
A man in Arizona died and his wife is hospitalized after they ingested chloroquine phosphate, a product meant to clean fish tanks. She and her husband got the idea to self-medicate after watching Trump's news conference. When questioned, she knew it wasn't FDA approved, but "Trump kept saying it was basically pretty much a cure."
The trouble with chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine is Trump had no business selling America on false hope.
That's my opinion and your opinion may differ.

Global warming, the inconvenient truth
Al Gore and his predictions. Did it happen?
Global warming. Polar ice melting.
Save the environment.
He claimed that by now the earth would have been underwater.
Wow, he said: BY NOW THE TEMPERATURE WOULD'VE BEEN UNBEARABLE. Is it?
Wow, he gave us the worst propaganda ever.
He's a demonrat by the way
Note: I'm not arguing with the fact that the climate is changing, nor would I argue that it is 4 billion years old. Science do claim, it will also going to perish or die. When? There's no time frame (yet).

Hillary's comment about 1/2 of Trump supporters being a "basket of deplorables" wasn't harsh enough
This evening from Salon;
(continued in my first comment below)
In response to:
Hillary Clinton tried to warn us — and paid the price. Let's at least call Republicans what they are
Still, America's political class is unwilling to call the fascist, white supremacist Republicans what they are
By Chauncey DeVega

During a speech in September 2016, Hillary Clinton — then the Democratic presidential nominee — warned the American people and the world of the dangers represented by Donald Trump and his followers. She described the "volatile political environment" of that moment:
"You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right? The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic — you name it. And unfortunately there are people like that. And he has lifted them up. He has given voice to their websites that used to only have 11,000 people, now have 11 million. He tweets and retweets offensive, hateful, mean-spirited rhetoric. Now some of those folks, they are irredeemable, but thankfully they are not America."
In many ways, Clinton was too kind. If anything, she underestimated how many Americans were in fact committed and enthusiastic human deplorables.
After that speech, Clinton was pilloried by the mainstream news media, some leading Democrats, and of course the Republican Party and right-wing propaganda hate machine. Clinton's characterization of Trump's "basket of deplorables" was described as insensitive and unfair to the "white working class" Americans that elites and out-of-touch Democrats had too often ignored.
That reaction to Clinton's truth-telling helped to legitimate Trumpism and American neofascism (operating under the mask of "populism") as something that was reasonable and understandable, rather than as a manifestation of racial resentment, a racist temper tantrum and a declaration of white supremacy. This reflected our society's deep investment in a narrative of white racial innocence. In that logic, America is a great and exceptional country, and by implication, this is especially true of white people — especially those "real Americans" whose supposed patriotism and presumed Christian values render them a bit more American than anyone else.
Many members of the news media likely agreed with Clinton's warnings in private, but the institution as a whole had been beaten into submission by Republican fictions about so-called liberal bias. So it was that Clinton's warning about Trump and his "deplorables" — and their embrace of fascism — was deemed to be outside the limits of approved public discourse.
If Clinton's warnings had been heeded in 2016, we might be living in a quite different country today. America would not necessarily be drowning under a fascist tide which has imperiled our democracy and our future. Had Hillary Clinton been elected president, it's also likely that far fewer Americans would have been killed by the coronavirus pandemic, and the nation's economy might not have been pushed to the edge of a second Great Depression.
Matters are now so dire that it is now not a question of whether American democracy will succumb to a nightmare reign of full-on fascism but rather when that will happen. If America's neofascist movement continues to gain momentum, Joe Biden will be relegated to the role of a speed bump or an asterisk in American history.
In the five years since the 2016 election, Hillary Clinton has continued her efforts to rally America's pro-democracy forces against the right-wing and its fascist assaults. Last Tuesday, during a Guardian Live interview, she continued her warnings. The Guardian summarized her interview:

CS Blogs
During the short period of time that I have been a member of cs, the blogs have never been at such a low point.
Mainly faceless wankers blurting out all sorts of insanities and the worst part is that it's one or two that have many different profiles that are giving this site a bad name.
I have always promoted CS and my reward was meeting a number of excellent well mannered ladies and gents. What is the goal of these wankers I ask myself cos making friends isn't one of them.
If you don't like what you read here by all means keep going.
Have a great weekend.

Some here think we have it bad.
Today whilst doing my daily stint at scammer reporting a profile picture took me to a Canadian dating site dedicated to the disabled, shocked I've never seen so many scammers in one place, must be where they go for their holidays or something 
so apart from reporting the one from there trying to get in here I thought I give the site the benefit of my thoughts 
yes well I would have but of course any attempt at filling in the security script at the bottom of your mail meets with - incorrect why am I not surprised 
so I thought next best thing I'd have a word with Facebook about their page, someone must have beaten me to it as it's no longer available I'm totally disgusted that a site supposedly there to help the disabled is allowed to get away with it

Religion is not bad. MAN IS.
Agree? If not why? Please read the enclosed letter and you tell me. Or the world for that matter. Will you?
After a great amount of studying Theology, and being a LECTOR and Eucharistic Minister on one of the biggest dioceses in the nation, I have seen and understand how our biases and prejudices can cause ill will to most.
Religion just like any isms shape and influence our ways of life. It can define who we are, what we think, feel, and believe. Most importantly is how we feel, think and believe.
Humanity of all ages has been subject to slaughters, annihilation, purges and is the very cause of brutal, and vicious wars.
Don't get me wrong, I personally don't see religion as bad but when a person becomes so altruistic and RIGHTEOUS on the imposition of such beliefs and ways, we become all defensive and fight for what we think and feel is right.
Here's the point of this blog. I invite everyone to analyze and argue, this specific, clause I copied from one of my comments on one of my blogs.
The result is for all of us to RESPECT EACH ONE. BELIEVERS OR NOT, FOR HUMANITY'S sake, we're all brothers and sisters, are we not?
So, our ways of life define us. Why can't we learn and apply everything that is good in our different and individual ways for the collective good of everyone?
Or is it our arrogance and greed induced ways that we allow dominance in our universal conduct?
Don't come out and attack people just because we're all different. Let's respect and be positive and avoid being judgmental. We know deep in our hearts what is good and what is bad. Is there a better way than to follow the GOLDEN RULE?
ANYONE?
So please read and say something about this?
Dear Dr. Laura,
Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and I try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind him that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate.
I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some of the specific laws and how to best follow them.
a) When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord (Lev 1:9). The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?
b) I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?
c) I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness (Lev 15:19-24). The problem is, how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.
d) Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?
e) I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself?
f) A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an Abomination (Lev 11:10), it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't
