Something To Look Forward To

October 19, 2016 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

I know you’re all gonna be depressed after this election with nothing to look forward to, so I know you’ll feel blessed by this promise.

Curt Schilling, yes, that Curt Schilling, says he’s gonna run against Senator Elizabeth Warren.

Well, let’s see here.

First there’s his excellent business sense:

screen-shot-2016-10-19-at-9-28-51-amSchilling made the comments during an extended interview with WPRO host John DePetro, during which he fielded call-in questions from Rhode Islanders for the first time about the collapse of his video-game company, 38 Studios, which received a $75-million taxpayer-backed loan in 2010. The firm’s bankruptcy two years later left taxpayers on the hook for roughly $90 million.

And his great personality:

In 1996, he made Esquire’s Top Ten Most Hated Athletes, and he hasn’t improve at all since then.

Plus, he’s a big ole giant Donald Trump supporter.

I don’t think there’s a sports fan or a politics fan on God’s green earth who would not thoroughly enjoy watching Elizabeth Warren kick Schilling’s butt across Massachusetts.

 

Okay, Now I’m Impressed. Update: No, I Am Not

Update:  I got punked.  This is from Midland, Michigan, not Midland, Texas.  Damn.  I should have known. Sorry, Guys.

Y’all, the newspaper in Midland Damn Texas, endorsed Hillary Clinton.

It wasn’t easy for them being as how they are located in the deep heart of Ted Cruz, but they grew a pair and endorsed Hillary.  It wasn’t an enthusiastic endorsement …

In choosing Clinton, we recognize the historic nature of her candidacy — an opportunity to break a centuries-old barrier and become the first woman to be president since the founding of our nation. But we also recognize that in terms of governmental philosophy, there is not much that we agree on. So our support for Clinton comes with a caveat: we do so holding fast to Paul Ryan’s goal of ensuring Clinton doesn’t receive a “blank check” once in office because Republicans maintain control of both Houses of Congress.

… but it was an endorsement nonetheless.  We’ll take it.

Midland Damn Texas, y’all.

 

Thank You, President Obama, for Using the W Word

How long until Trump hits Twitter?

 

Oh, Chris. Bless His Heart.

When you are Chris Christie it is hard to disappear but he’s trying.

The election cannot come soon enough for New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R).

The adviser and surrogate for Donald Trump is already trying to distance himself from the Republican nominee’s flagging bid for the presidency.

Christie did not want to answer the question about whether or not he’s “proud” of the Trump campaign.

screen-shot-2016-10-18-at-10-13-18-amThe New Jersey governor went on to suggest that he and other campaign surrogates should not be held responsible for the campaign’s performance.

“I’m proud of everything I’ve said, and that’s all I can control. The rest of it I can’t control,” he concluded.

I’m pretty certain that Donald Trump will find a conspiracy in this, but let me assure Mr. Trump that Christie’s only motivation is that Donald Trump is a loser.

 

Did I Hear Tacos?

The Culinary Union has decided to build a damn wall of their own.

So, in Las Vegas at Trump’s hotel, they are going to build a wall of Taco Trucks.  Y’all, that’s my dream.

A wall is going up outside the Trump International Las Vegas hotel Wednesday morning. The Culinary Union, long a Donald Trump antagonist in Las Vegas, is going to “build” a wall of taco trucks outside Trump’s hotel, just a couple miles from UNLV, site of the final presidential debate.

If any of y’all are going, please send pictures.

Melania

I am away from my laptop but Melanie is going on teevee soon.  Please feel free to explain to me or any other interested party how a 59 year old man engages in “boy talk,” or blames everybody else for everything tacky he’s ever done.

I thought I’d give you a chance to start commenting before the interview even starts.

Did you see the sign that said Paul Ryan is a “trader?”

That’s the teevee where I am.  What a sweet gift.
