20/20 Gonzo 50: Several Elegant Evenings

  

Grateful the Democratic Party was busted by Eisenhower in the 50s and Civil Rights legislation became the law of the land.  Those Democrats were stubborn in their convictions, unsurprisingly ignorant, and without soul.  Similar to the Democrats a century prior, fighting Lincoln and the Republicans to break the Union and create their Confederate nirvana.  What the modern day Democrats see in Communism, I do not know, but it continues a pattern of taking indefensible and dumb positions.  Although the modern Democrats have lost most intellectual credibility, it's hard to believe they had any left to lose.  

In 1878, Senator Aaron A. Sargent. (R-CA) initiated a proposal that eventually gave American women of age the right to vote.  However, it took over 40 years to overcome the Democrat's feisty opposition when they gave up their filibuster and the 19th Amendment, the Susan B. Anthony Amendment, was finally ratified in 1920.  Then a decade of roaring, followed by a decade of depressing, followed by Rosie The Riveter literally building our World War II war machine.  A war machine that helped eliminate the most barbaric evil of the day, saving all of Europe and Asia from certain doom.  But unfortunately, doom descended anyways, as it will, called communism, it's really about cash money, seizure of wealth, cash money, greed, and cash money.

The classless of all classless has gathered together for several elegant evenings of pre-taped telethon segments.  Wandering around in empty buildings, pointing at nothing, insulting our country, it's leaders, most of it's people, and our intelligence.  We see your slather, we know things, we can detect your smell through the screens, despite the editing, that same sour, dour, cynical froth common among the classless, tasteless, and humorless.  Go ahead, pile on, cancel Thanksgiving for sure, Christmas is for fools, give us three extra paid Labor Days instead, screw Eisenhower, Suzi B was overrated.  At least Jerry Lewis made us laugh and money was raised to fight a specific health hazard, his telethons were so much better.

Red Mud Gonzo: Twenty Nine

  "No Controversy" by jpg Researching Max Purcell.  Has a Wimbledon title in doubles.  No controversy to speak of, but he's only won a third of his singles matches for his career.  Michael Mmoh's got wins against Zverev, Auger-Alassime, and Hubie.  Both 26 years of age, Purcell's won $3.5 million, Mmoh's at $2.5 million.  Not bad. "Whataburger Sucks" by jpg TTop was curious about the knife.  This dude spent 5 years in the Mojave desert, said he lost his sense of reality, said he'd defend his country again if he had to, I thought he wanted something to go down.  Told TTop the knife was for killing humans, if needed.  He wore his pistol in a holster for everyone to see.  *The double meat burger at the TX Burger in Fairfield, Texas was 5 of 5 stars.  Deep down, we all know Whataburger sucks. "1st Victim" by The Mayor Dumb ass.  Loses the element of surprise and becomes the 1st victim.  Add to it, he is carrying an oversi...

Maniacs And Friends

last night i dreamed i forgave everybody for anything ever done anytime before. there were fathers, brothers, sisters, and mothers, not to mention extended family. then the people all around -- toilers, drivers, watchers, lovers, maniacs, and friends. things they did, said, implied, yelled, things they ignored, they insisted, they resisted. i was talking with each of them individually, taking my time, and we were committed. nods and shakes, aknowledgments accepted and replaced with a debt of some sort. a responsibility to forgive others in the same manner, slate picked clean and put up. minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, and generations will pass either way.
