This breaking:

Supporters of Pres. Donald Trump faced off with counter-protesters on Saturday in Pacific Beach, prompting San Diego Police to declare the situation an unlawful assembly "due to acts of violence."

Well, these tRumpsters are dangerous, we all know that.

Yet some folks in San Diego are probably starting to get sick of these tRumpsters thinking that they own the world, eh? And they're fighting back?

Hopefully, too much injury will not occur.

I haven't seen this posted here, but over at Huff-Post, is a video of Martin Bashir of MSNBC in his interview with repug consultant (propagandist) Trey Hardin, and Bashir asked Hardin to contribute to the discussion concerning the veteran Navy Seal swiftboaters.

This is breaking

On our local channel NY1, Rick Lazio has announced that he is dropping his bid to become NYS governor in the Conservative Party ticket.

He has indicated that he has not endorsing either Cuomo or Paladino in the race, but rather is moving aside so that the Conservative Party may replace him with another candidate.

These words

“a divisive figure simply not fit to lead this great state"

are the words of the former Republican Senator from New York, Alfonse D’Amato about current Republican candidate for New York State Governor - Carl Paladino. It is part of an open letter that he signed. This letter is also signed by former Democratic (DINO really) Mayor Ed Koch, and Democrat Carl McCall, the former NYS Comptroller:

To get these three men in a room and have them all agree on the day of the week would in itself be a challenge. McCall would be expected to sign this, Koch maybe.

But D’Amato? Senator Pothole? I live in New York, and that’s what we called him, as abrasive as he sometimes was, he did get things done for the state. He got the potholes filled. And a loyal Republican he always is (or now was).

At least one conservative write/blogger, Matt Lewis, has recognized the Arizona's SB1070 is not a good law. In his article "Avoiding hypocrisy on immigration" (yes, he actually uses the word "hypocrisy" in the title) Mr. Lewis warns that conservatives need to be skeptical of this new law. He has the biggest problem with the "reasonable suspicion" wording in this bill, and feels that it may not be the "illegals" that will be stopped and harassed, rather, it will be the legal Mexican American citizens of Arizona the will bear the brunt of this bill.

I think my congressman, Jerrald Nadler, is fantastic. I live in NY08, and I am fortunate enough that Congressman Nadler lives a couple of buildings away from me. A number of times I've seen him in the neighborhood, in a local business, and he is forever attentive to his constituants. He appears with neighborhood groups in support of their causes. He tirelessly attends many community meetings. He listens, and makes good decisions as to the best of his district.

And now, I think Congressman Nadler has shown himself to be the best (although I've alwaays thought that.) On September 15th, my congressman introduced the Respect for Marriage Act, a bill that would do away with the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and make sure that those couples who have a legally recognized marriage in their states are able to enjoy the full federal rights and benefits of any other married couple.

I read a KOS diary yesterday, published by Dave in RI and it detailed his experience of calling a telephone number that he received in his e-mails. This particular telephone number that he called belonged to an organizer of one of these health-care protest rallies. The diary was well-done and pretty easy read diary and this is the link.

http://www.dailykos.com/...

And I commend Dave in RI for making such a call, asking the organizer some tough questions, and having the patience and persistence of questioning and listening to what I can only describe as - a blithering idiot.

THE CULTURE WARS! THEY JUST WON'T GO AWAY!

They're just not happy with pushing their ridiculous and idiotic creationism in the science classes in the public schools, even though federal courts have ruled against them on this. They just can't help being compelled to ingrain us with their Jesus moral superiority everywhere, even though most of them practice nothing of what they preach. But oh wait, I remember, they're The Chosen over there at C Street. It's not enough that they can say just about anything, anytime they want about the Almighty, Jesus, Christianity, salvation, sinners and all the other assorted sh*t. Well, okay, it is their First Amendment right and I easily agree with this right, but can anyone somehow come up with a law to pass to get them to STFU without it being unconstitutional? It's not enough that they get tax exemptions on all the monies that they collect to run their religious criminal organizations. Again, the Family on C Street. I personally see no reason why these religious organizations are allowed tax exemptions. Preaching politics from the pulpit isn't a violation of anyone's First Amendment right. But it is a violation of contract law if they do it as a 501(c)(3).

So now, it's on to History.

Goodness gracious, now South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford has to go all the way to Argentina to get laid.... Nevada Senator John Ensign porks the wife of his Chief of Staff.... Louisiana Senator David Vitter likes to piss in his diapers, and then do only god only knows what with the prostitute who put the diapers on him..... Former New York Congressman Vito Fonsella had a wife at home with kids in Staten Island - and a mistress with a kid in D.C.... Former Idaho Senator Larry Craig gets his jollies in men’s restrooms at airports... Reverend Ted Haggart..... Former Mayor of New York City Rudy Giuliani.....Former Florida Congressman Mark Foley.....ya-di da-di da,... etc.... etc,... etc...

For anyone interested in all of the Republican who were involved in sex scandals, Abundibot had posted an excellent diary the other day entitled "Family Values" People Who Turned Out... Interesting with a list of Republicans who have transgressed over the past few years, and I counted about ninety six names on his diary list, and the commentators suggested even some more that could be added.

I guess that we have to hand it to Sean Hannity. Hannity has now reduced all of the right-wing/Republican philosophy so neatly that a 5 year-old would be able to understand it.

On his Fixed News show yesterday, Hannity explains everything we needed to know about right-wing/Republican values so well, that now, gee, could it be that now I even get it. And of course, he says that President Barrack Obama is just ruining everything.

Creationism Now Playing in the Science Classes of Louisiana

Well, religious right-wingnut Governor Bobby Jindal of Louisiana is definitely beefing-up the religious right-wingnut credentials to his resume. As are the majority of the Louisiana state legislators. Yesterday, the legislators handed him a bill, SB 733 (there were very few nay votes against this bill), aka The Louisiana Science Education Act (LSEA), and he promptly signed SB 733 into law.

LSEA is being touted as providing the "critical thinking" so desperately required by students in Louisiana’s public school science classes for their success in life. However, this bill was basically written by none other that Seattle’s Discover Institute, the home base of Intelligent Design. And as most of us are aware, courts in Dover, Pennsylvania, and Cobb County, Georgia, have in cases decided against the Discovery Institute, ruling that Intelligent Design is basically akin to teaching biblical creationism.

So Governor Bobby Jindal, a biology major of all things during his time at Brown University, just couldn’t let the opportunity pass by to begin turning the state of Louisiana into a religious theocracy.

The fun continues with the Republican's effort to pick a new chairman. The list of the six candidates and their jockeying for this position has all the makings of Dumb and Dumber and Rosemary's Baby, starring the Six Stooges. And of course as everyone starts to weigh in on this, have your popcorn ready for this three ring circus, as the excitement begins.
