The strange state of our union
President Trump's 2020 State of the Union Address -- I thought it in very poor taste and low rent for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to make a show of tearing up Trump's speech at the end but also thought it unjustified that Trump bestowed the Congressional Medal of Freedom on conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh. I also find NBC's Chuck Todd to be the most openly biased political journalist/analyst on TV today and don't know why they have him. Getting back to Nancy Pelosi she looked a little irregular during the entire speech with a pained and disconcerted expression throughout and stood up only a few times for the more obvious consensus points Trump made. Mr. Limbaugh has cancer and the ribbon around his neck put Dems in an awkward position. I mean how do you exactly stand and clap for a guy who called liberals evil and a dark force on literally every show of his down through the years?
While there was obviously a lot jam-packed into this approximately an hour and a half long speech, the usual optimistic items elaborated by the president on the state of the union these are the two things that interested me and gave the whole night an unusual quality.
On the pro-forma impeachment acquittal in the Senate your thoughts? Some say it will become easier to impeach presidents now and that this may become more commonplace in the future. Then there's the very lonely Republican Senator from Utah Mr. Mitt Romney.

The perv tsunami
Matt Lauer the latest. Most shocking for me was Charlie Rose. Doesn't look the type but rather was more into big tomes he had to read prepping for interviews. I'm losing track as I need some type of perv scorecard. Is there an app for that?

The surreal GOP convention
I found myself drifting over to Gwen Ifill and Judy Woodruff and their PBS coverage of the start of the convention. With the exception of being pro-choice Rudy Giuliani offered real savory red-meat conservatism with Peter Lugar steak sauce. It was a little thick, grilled and char-broiled and the wonderful aromas permeated the convention floor. A black sheriff spoke and Blue Lives Matter was perhaps the main theme of the entire evening. There's a little Melania controversy now as she may have borrowed elements of a previous Michele Obama convention speech. The PBS panelists: neocon David Brooks noted they all had a feeling of starkness so I started to feel stark too even though I've had this starkness since I turned fifty. There were some last minute delegates who wanted to throw the whole thing into chaos like being forced into a date you don't like. Last observation - Chris Christie politely attended but he had your typical man's angry attitude towards rejection;)

The SCOTUS TX Abortion Decision
I'll be honest I don't much follow the abortion debate anymore main reason is it's agitating especially right before you go to bed. A large
part of society practices abortion, always have and always will so that social fact is agitating so I prefer to think of other things. I'm tangentially aware of the issue though as Justice Kennedy didn't much care for those abortion restrictions down in TX designed to close as many clinics as possible. Must be my advancing age, my general social irritability as when presented with the need for abortion these days I'm most likely to go had to have sex didn't you? (Church Lady id) Those women activists down in TX they act like they won the World Series or the Super Bowl or something. IMO the Ole Gray Lady's love for abortion and yes it is love is on another level, otherworldly even. OK agita;)

Defunding Planned Parenthood
I have sincerely tried to understand this liberal apoplexy whenever the subject of defunding Planned Parenthood is broached but when I've posed the question throughout the years I never get a clear answer or quite often no answer at all. WHY is Planned Parenthood entitled to or why are we morally obligated to subsidize this organization through millions of dollars in federal taxpayer funds every year??? Even if I were pro-choice I wouldn't automatically come down on the side of the federal subsidy. There are quite a few organizations in this country who do yeoman's work on the side of good and yet they don't receive such a subsidy and yet it is mostly a Democratic Article of Faith that PP needs to be federally subsidized and if you don't quite morally calculate it this way you're on the side of darkness and devils. I have to say though I have always found the pro-abortionism of the NY Times editorial board to be quite stunning even with the string of undercover sting videos by the pro-life although I'm supposed to say the anti-abortion group Center for Medical Progress. So throw your coins in the fountain here or if you prefer just walk by and glance and give the old Sitemeter an uptick.
