The American National Election Study polled voters and came up with some not-breaking non-news.

You can ask just one simple question to find out whether someone likes Donald Trump more than Hillary Clinton: Is Barack Obama a Muslim? If the answer is yes, 89 percent of the time that person will have a higher opinion of Trump than Clinton.

All evidence of this poll says that economic status, age, ideology, education or gender have little distinguishing factor to Trump supporters.

What does?

Here ya go:

In short, they are racists.  Like I said, that’s non-breaking not-news.

I heard today that Trump promises to attack President Obama if Obama campaigns for the Democratic nominee.  That’s not going to get Trump any undecided voters.  It just shores up his base.  And he’ll use race to do it.

I just thought you’d want to know that what you thought is scientifically true.

Thanks to HeyZeus for the heads up.

It appears that Governor Greg Abbott is coming to see our flooding tomorrow because … I dunno, he likes the book better than the movie?

I suspect he’s coming to tell us that this is not flooding, this is little baby Jesus tears crying that Barack Obama is destroying America.  And his solution?  Prayer. More prayer. Lots more prayer. You’re not praying hard enough, dammit. You’re all going to hell for the sins of homosexuals and liberals.

I hope they warned him about the unisex bathrooms at Jaime’s Dairy Mart and that our Planned Parenthood has condoms. Oh, we are so going to hell.

If I can find my waders, I want to ask him about this.  Abbott opened up a deceptive trade practices case against Trump University.  Did any of the students in Texas get their money back?  Nope. Wanna know why?

The office of then-Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, a Republican, opened a civil investigation of “possibly deceptive trade practices.” Abbott’s probe was quietly dropped in 2010 when Trump University agreed to end its operations in Texas. Trump subsequently donated $35,000 to Abbott’s successful gubernatorial campaign, according to records.

It’s not that I mind that the Governor is for sale.  Hell, we’ve gotten used to that around here.  What I mind is that he’s for sale so damn cheap.

We made national news for the flooding.  The Brazos River is puffed-up proud and flowing through homes that have never seen water before.

And now —

Bubba and i are high and dry for now and suspect we’ll stay that way.  However, we are packing up today and toting our good stuff upstairs because —

And there’s no place for the water to go.

So if you don’t hear from me today, I’m packing.  When I sit down to take a rest, I’ll see what’s up.  Plus, there’s bound to be another local Republican I can pick on.

I’ll post some pictures if I get a chance.

Okay, so there was a dust storm out in west Texas and one of them there college-educated meteorologists called it by its proper name – a haboob.

Oh hell, Honey, west Texas came apart at the seams, and started slinging snot ever which way.

Duck!  Darlin’, what came next is an electric haboob with rolling switchblades and a dozen underfed alligators.  What the hell has this kid done with the King’s English?

And —

I’m wondering what they use for counting out in west Texas?  Because it certainly wouldn’t be Arabic numerals, right?  None of that there fancy algebra either.

Some smarty-pants pointed that that Texas is a foreign word.

Plus, I think haboob is kinda fun to say.
