Funniest thing I saw on that yesterday was a Trump surrogate on CNN who said that Trump was actually looking out for Cruz, because once the citizenship issue was out there, some irresponsible Democrat will twist the truth and cravenly make a big issue out of it for political gain. If he was even dimly aware of any irony there, he kept it well hidden.

speaking of golden girls, i was on the ground in SE iowa this week, hanging out with a bunch of my grandma's friends at her nursing home. they are all crazy for trump. he did some sort of campaign event recently that none of them could stop talking about. they speak of him like he is jesus. no joke. like their hands start clapping together at the memory of when he finally showed up and they saw him. one of them even got to ask a question/statement, which was something like "i think what we're going through now is just as bad as the depression. it's the same as the depression, only with inflation." trump reportedly nodded and said "you have a point there". as the man retold the story the other residents gasped and smiled at the memory.

"i think what we're going through now is just as bad as the depression. it's the same as the depression, only with inflation."
Even if the person who said that were 90 years old today, he would have been 15 years old in 1940. So, obviously, his memories of how bad the Great Depression were would be, at best, the memories of a child who never had to deal with the adult reality of that time.

Broaddrick struck me then as the most credible of the accusers, which is to say her story has enough ambiguities for me to believe he might have done what she said. But I had a dim memory of her during the height of the Jones-Lewinsky farrago of her filing an affidavit denying the charges, and I was right. Plus, imagining HRC as Lucrezia Borgia thanking Broaddrick for staying quiet is beyond Oliver Stone's talent.

A robust majority of Americans support President Obama's plan to conduct airstrikes against ISIS in Syria, according to an ABC News/ Washington Post poll out Wednesday. In the survey, 70 percent of adults say they support the airstrikes, while 26 percent say they do not.
v unlikely to have a mainstream candidate represent a policy this one-sided. curious whether there have been candidates who supported something supported by only 26% of americans

the criticism is fair but given that an outright non-interventionist (or pacifist) is unlikely to get the nomination in this or any other year, and given that no president is going to be able to dismantle the military-industrial complex overnight (or even in eight years), i'm willing to overlook my quibbles with some of bernie's past stances b/c HRC's foreign policy is so much worse.
