-- This, via here, only succeeds in making me nauseous. They left out 'start a war on Iran' for openers. At least she might accomplish what Obama has failed to do on Guantanamo. But she'd negotiate away an unfettered right for a woman to choose if she is left to drink alone with the GOP at White House happy hours. (Yes, her call to abolish Hyde is a very good move.)
-- No, she won't. Because she understands what would happen if she did.
Stay out of Texas, #HRod. Democrats here have it bad enough as it is, and they might make up a little bit of ground (scroll down to Mark Jones' assessment at the end) if you could just, you know, keep using the state as an ATM like always.
-- Some people are really mad about white privilege, brute-force capitalism, and Independence Day.
I certainly think that any of the morons advocating for #Texit -- even Greg Abbott knows better, for fuck's sake -- should have been compelled to go into the office or the plant for the entire three-day weekend, but this is simply too much hyperbolic exaggeration (two "trillions" is two too many) and way too angry. Right message but absolutely the wrong messenger.
Dude: drink more America this Labor Day, mkay?
-- None of the above, thanks, but absolutely not Ron Green.

Texas Republicans, of all groups, are perhaps the most enthused over the idea that the state could be in play in the fall.
Republicans say they would love to see Democrats drawn into what they view as a hopeless money pit. But also, within a state GOP torn over its own nominee, a Clinton offensive could be just what it takes to rally an otherwise morose group.
“The quickest way to activate disenfranchised GOP donors who won’t give to Trump would be an aggressive effort by Democrats to win the state,” said Brian Haley, a Texan who was a top fundraiser in two previous GOP presidential campaigns.
Abbott is one of multiple Republicans who have already sent fundraising emails on the notion.
“She has already made it known that winning Texas will be a focus of her campaign,” Abbott campaign director John Jackson wrote in a recent missive, referring to Clinton. “It’s clear that Hillary will not only continue Obama’s liberal leadership—she will be even worse!”

Call it the land you love, but make sure the drones are loaded, the poisons shipped off in container ships potent, the pestilence of capitalism fully armed with the parasitic power of one global power, my country tis of thee.
I could hammer and hammer the prison industrial complex eating the American Black Male. I could rattle on and on about the United States of Debts, all the trillions homeowners “owe” the financial loan sharks, thugs, or the trillion plus students owe for virtually worthless degrees in this precarious, at-will, dead-end job America.
I could rattle on how insipid and violent forgetting is, and knowing just enough of the foundations of the lies of history to get a young and old person steaming. Imagine, the state of the world with Hollywood, Big Sports, Bubble-head Big Media, Vapid Mainstream Academia weighing in on the vast sucking sound that is America’s presidential-congressional-gubernatorial set of mistakes called elections (sic).
Bombs bursting in air, as I cruised down from a pretty cool spot in the mountains, supposedly away from the ghastly 7-11-Walmart-Texaco-McDonald’s dervish of hyper-stupidity, also called mainstreaming, mainlining consumerism.
