Y’all, it is frightful to admit, but I missed Rick Perry on Dancing With The Disgraced Presidential Candidates last night.

Rumor has it that he came in last only because they couldn’t rank him any lower than that.  I warned you that the guy can’t lead.

I don’t know where he goes from here, but the bright lights ain’t doing that boy one bit of good.

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.

Latest in new selections to pair with fish?  Orange whine.

Oh dear, Donald Trump says he wants a debate with no moderators.  Why?  Because they are not fair to him.

Trump on Monday floated a new idea for his upcoming debates against Clinton, proposing a debate without a moderator to avoid a “very unfair” showdown because such a person would go “really hard” against him following Matt Lauer’s performance in NBC News’ commander in chief forum last week.

Trump claims whines that Lauer was fair, but people say he went easy on Trump so the odds of future debate moderators being harder on him has increased.

“But they all said I won and that Matt Lauer was easy on me. Well he wasn’t. He was — I thought he was very professional, I have to be honest. I think he’s been treated very unfairly, but they all said that I won, and what they’re doing is they’re gaming the system so that when I go into the debate, I’m gonna get — be treated very, very unfairly by the moderators.”

Put on your big boy pants, Trump.  Do you think Isis is going to be fair with you?

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.

Y’all, we need to pray for Michele Bachmann.  Bless her heart, she can smell the bacon but she can’t find the breakfast table.

Now she preaching that Hillary is gonna tax churches and non-profits.

Hillary ain’t gonna do that but it should have been done a long time ago.

We will see a heightened level, I believe, of vindication coming out of a Hillary Clinton White House, where I believe there will be prosecutions for churches, for nonprofits, for anyone that opposes the Hillary Clinton agenda. Open your eyes.

I don’t think vindication means what she thinks it means.  But, hell, nobody in the audience at the Value Voters Summit knows what it means either.

She also said that if you vote for Clinton, you will surely die.

It will either be Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, one of the two, and just like the Book of Deuteronomy teaches us that: I have set before you life and death, which will you choose?

Yeah, there definitely needs to be crap tax.

Thanks to Bunny for the heads up.

Killeen, Texas, is in central Texas and, according to the last census, is home to about 126,000 souls and some terribly confused city council folks.

It’s city budget time in Killeen, a time of rejoicing and the cutting of the taxes.  Trump supporter and loud Republican councilman Dick Young, is claiming that cutting one third of the city library’s budget ain’t no big thing.

“I don’t think the level of service is going to dramatically change,” Young said, if funding cuts are made.

He also contends that there’s no plans to close down the town’s only branch library.  See, that would give me comfort except for the fact that here it is right here on the city council memorandum.

I know I’m taking a big leap of faith here to suspect that city council members in Killeen can read, but maybe they could get somebody at the library to read the memorandum to them before they start holding press conferences.

Honey, it ain’t like Killeen has several branch libraries.  They do not.  They have one.  They’re gonna try to close it.

Now I am not saying that Republicans are a bunch of book burners, but they are a bunch of library closers.

Look, I don’t want to be mean, but Killeen needs all the damn libraries it can get.

A group of citizens have started to raise a stink.  Good on ‘um.  There are some fabulous folks in Killeen.  Some of them are willing to pay a users fee to keep the library. Those folks deserve a city council that reads more, not less.

Thanks to Joe for the heads up.

Remember last week when I told you about the FEC saying that Newt Gingrich can’t skip out on his debts.

I know, I know, shame on anybody who would do business with Newt, knowing what a self-serving jerk he is, but this guy is so danged pissed-off that his letter to the FEC about Newt is well worth reading.

In order for all the creditors to be paid in full, a robust campaign will be necessary under the direction of Newt and Callista Gingrich.

They have the ability to raise and with their own resources pay off the debt. They need to act with the same virtues they publicly promote.

In Newt’s defense, virtues isn’t in his dictionary.

I guess all I can say is, “Sorry, dude, your money went to Tiffany’s.

Thanks to Alfredo for the heads up.

You gotta see this because you would not believe me if I told you.

Trump gives his own personal testimony about the big guy in the sky.

And to think, some people go to school for years to get a theology degree.

Thanks to Brad for the heads up.
