Twitter

Silicon Valley may be where the next big thing comes from, but there are some dogs out there too.

Remember Yahoo! trying to sell to Microsoft.  And failing?  That was funny.


Now Twitter is the guy at the dance without a date.  While their business model is the real reason why nobody wants them, their recent involvement in Election 2016 can be the reason we want to believe.  Those losers played censorship with their service.  One can be optimistic that a new buyer will reverse these decisions and restore neutrality.

It is rare to see liberals suffer like this.  I think I may have a cigar...

More at Instapundit, and ZH.

Polls: Post Debate #2

In case you were feeling optimistic about Trump's performance last night:


Source: Real Clear Politics


UPDATED 10.12.16 1pm:

The jump in the polls above has been widely discredited by many who have investigated further.  Both the poll takers are suspect, as are the distribution of Dems vs. Rep.

If I were to be asked my opinion, I'd warn that the polls might be skewed to generate public opinion, but that the polls also do not represent the Somali vote.  If this is a close race, the Somali vote will give the victory to Hillary.  But if Trump is far ahead, there are not enough busses to charter to make up the difference.

Doug Ross has a post on this subject.

And Lame Cherry is predicting a "Trump Landslide" victory.

Holding Family to a Standard

And that standard, comrades, is always: anti-communism.


A FB Comrade of mine shared this post last night.  He was a Vietnam refugee and is now an American citizen who has an incredible story - a story some in his family are rejecting.

On April 24, 1975 my comrade was 12 years old.  His father, a retired Lieutenant Colonel in the VN Army who was owed a favor or two, picked up my comrade and his 16 year old brother from school.  He drove them to the main airbase in Saigon and put them on a C-130 to the Philippines with the message: "you may not see your family again."  Six days later Saigon fell. 
Just got home from church. Raiders won. Debate... I missed it. Then I had to type this to educate one of my young relatives who somehow is misguided:

So you all know, I am the evil uncle in the family. Let me just state this then I will get out of your hair. I am surprised so many of you Vietnamese Americans are democrats. Do you know why you're here? What event brought you, your parents, and your grandparents here. The democrat 93rd and 94th congress defunded the war efforts to SE Asia, causing the Fall of Saigon. Millions of people died after 1975 including the killing fields of Cambodia. YOU of all people should align with the party of death. You actively piss and shit on the graves of nearly 250,000 who died at sea and millions more executed or died in re-education camps. Shame on you if you didn't know the history of the 93rd and 94th congress. Shame on you if you knew and still vote democrats. Shame on you if you won't read about it after reading my comments. So get off your high horses talking about rapes when millions of babies are killed. Are any of you defending them? NOT a fk soul here. You dishonored those names on the VN Wall. I don't give a flying shit how old you are or even if you were born here. History is a precious thing if you know what it is. Done here.
My comrade and his brother left the Philippines for Guam, then California, and then Arkansas.  They were re-united with their parents and two other siblings a year later, so a happy story for them.  He lives in Arizona now and spends a generous amount of time sharing his stories and love for America with Vietnam Veterans, high school students, and anyone else who will listen.

Some in is family refuse to listen, but he refuses to let up.  Good. 

He holds his family to a standard.  He's an example for all of us.

(Yes, he owns a Glorious Hat.)

#NeverTrump's Last Gasp

This is Hillary's October Surprise?  This is the best she's got?


They had to wait for Clinton the GOPe to release an 11-year old illegal recording of Trump saying he tried to grab women "by the pussy."  And, of course, these same petulant opportunists ignore Hillary's hacked Goldman Sachs speech where she called for one-world governance and called us a "bucket of losers."

Yes, the #NeverTrumpers are that petty.

On the bright side, I am looking forward to Baldwin's skit tonight on SNL! I promise to post below.

My FB Comrades did not disappoint:







Comrade Chapin - the sarcasm is strong with this one.  1 minute.




Scott Adams lists his thoughts on this subject.  Here are two:
4. If nothing new happens between now and election day, Clinton wins. The odds of nothing new happening in that timeframe is exactly zero.

10. Most male Hollywood actors support Clinton. Those acting skills will come in handy because starting today they have to play the roles of people who do not talk and act exactly like Trump in private.

My #NeverTrump list just got bigger.  And while some of these folks have since jumped on the Trump Train, (because they are losing in other races or losing viewers and ad revenue) their names stay.  These are self-appointed 'thought leaders' who either missed the most profound political event in over a generation, or had personal or financial reasons to work against Trump.  And during the primaries they all subscribed to the tired old liberal tactic of attacking my candidate rather than promoting their candidate.

Let me leave you with these two thoughts:
1) The Internet is forever, and
2) My vote for Trump just moved up an hour.
What a year!

UPDATED 2:30pm:

I remembered that I had a bunch of NeverTrumpers bookmarked.  I went to see what they are saying.  Here is what I found from these pillars of enlighten opinion:

This saddens me.  But I've added her to the list above nonetheless.


Let's get everyone on the record now so we won't make the same mistakes again.

UPDATED 10.9.16 Noon:

Check out Comrade Matt Forney's article over at RightOn:  Back in the U.S.S.A., Trump’s Here to Save the Day.  His prediction:  "The Trumpening."

Also, Lame Cherry offers some perspective on the topic:  Why 2016 Passed Hillary Clinton bye bye.

And SNL does not disappoint!  As promised above:





UPDATED 10.10.16 Noon:

My Ohio Senator, Rob Portman, has pulled his endorsement and promised vote for Trump.

I will be leaving the Senate portion of my Ohio ballot blank.  (or write-in someone else)

There is as much butt-hurt among Republicans out there as there are problems to fix in this country.  Their desire for the perfect candidate does not outweigh my desire to reverse this nation's decline.

I've added Portman's name to the list above.
