Brain Function Speed, Where Does Roger Stone Live Anyway, and Lindsey Graham's Lost Head, or, The Old NFL Ball Game!

You know, I wanted the Saints to win the NFC Championship, too. 
But, really.
The Conspiracy Theorists have now come up with the utterly meaningless factoid that four members of last week's refereeing crew live in southern California. Sure, if you care nothing for sports, or were on the moon, or, like Lindsey Graham, had you head completely buried up Trump's ass, there was a totally blown pass interference foul that should have been called on the Rams late in the game, that would have put the Saints about as deep in Rams' territory as they could get, with a guaranteed touchdown mere seconds away. 
At least that's the way that Saints devotees see things.
But here's the thing: do you really think that the referees are SO skilled that in that split second, the guy could process Pass Interference...but it's the Rams...and I'm from SoCal...so I want the Rams to win...so I'm not going to call what I saw!
Really?
Newsflash: nobody's that good. Or that quick. The synapses just don't flash that way.
It's just like the JFK Assassination Dependents. If the NFL was going to conspire against anyone, it would have been the Patriots. Because the NFL offices hate the Patriots, and the Patriots hate the NFL offices.  Hello! Spygate! Inflategate! You know. The Patriots always get away with everything.

Except when they don't. 
But even if you want to believe this stupidity, do you really think that the CIA, or, in honor of Roger Stone's indictment and jailing, if you think Lyndon Baines Johnson somehow ran from his vehicle in the Dallas motorcade, shot Jack Kennedy in the head, and ran back to his car, without anyone...ANYONE...seeing him do that, as Stone pretty much claimed in his idiotic book, do you really think that the government could keep that quiet for 56 years? We know by 2 pm when Trump throws a fit over not getting an extra-large fry with his Big Mac at lunch! The NFL conspired to send 4 SoCal refs to rig the Rams-Saints game? Need I ask your opinion of the moon landings?
I suspect not.
If you're on board with this nonsense, well, just keep on MAGA-ing!

Captain Bonespurs And All His MAGA Tough Guys Need Their Blankie

Captain Bonespurs took to the airwaves tonight. The same networks that couldn't find the time for the legitimately elected to two terms President Obama to give a speech on immigration had plenty of time tonight to let the treasonous professional liar spew forth his terrifying fantasies.
I didn't watch him. I can't watch him. Whenever he appears on my television, I immediately want to Elvis the tv. 
I can't afford to replace our televisions on a daily basis. 
I have read some of what he said. He did not declare the rumored "National Emergency." This was his one shot to make the case for such a fascist, authoritarian, Nazi action. He cannot come back later and make that case. 
This was it.
He seems to have simply regurgitated, one more time, the same bullshit he's been peddling since the campaign, laced with some bizarre appeal to the "humanitarian" circumstances, as though there has ever been one moment of his increasingly pathetic life when he has given even the most minuscule shit about what's happening to anyone other than himself.
He doesn't care about the two children who have died. He doesn't care about the families who were in such fear for their children's lives in their home countries that they would make a multiple thousands mile march to a foreign land that is being run by a sociopath, simply to try to protect their children. He doesn't care about relations with Mexico, or crimes against humanity, where agents of the United States government, acting on his orders, have repeatedly violated Mexican sovereignty by firing tear gas and bullets into their country. He doesn't care about the circumstances of our troops, as he ordered thousands of them to the border. He doesn't care a whit about American law, which makes provision for people who approach our borders to make a lawful appeal for political asylum. He doesn't care about the damage that this entire charade and fiasco does to our standing amongst the family of nations around the world.
He just doesn't care.
I don't either.
But what I don't care about is the way this fascist manipulates his willfully ignorant supporters. I don't care about his cowardly stance toward people who are asking our help to save their lives, and their children's lives. I don't care what lies he tells to try to sell his stupid wall. He cannot have one single dollar to build a wall that announces to the world that the United States of America is afraid. Afraid of poor people. Afraid of brown people. Afraid of living up to our laws. Afraid of living up to our principles.
Afraid, afraid, afraid. The sum total of 21st Century American conservatism.
We cannot live that way.
The cowardly Captain Bonespurs, and his disgusting brand of cowardice, must be utterly and finally rejected over this idiotic fantasy of a wall that would keep all the scary, scary people away from our door.
