Quibbles and Bits, Food Fight edition

...and the quibbles and bits fly through the room!  

--> I'm watching the Second Democratic Kerfuffle - oh, excuse me, "debate".    One of the miracles of the internet, though, is the ability to take the kerfuffle with a bit of a sanity back - in my case, listening to Jill Stein's responses to the questions and "answers".   From what I'm observing, it seems like the moderators are handling this in a more balanced way than Mr. Holt in the first debate.   Trump looks like a buffoon and corrupt, Hillary looks and sounds like the political slickster she is.    And of course, they are hurling personal insults at each other.   Like the first "debate", this is turning into an insult to the collective intelligence of the American people. 

--> Can we please stop the press blackout of the Jill Stein and Gary Johnson campaigns?  At least Gary Johnson seems to be willing to play ball with the bankers - but he's also a first-class idiot.   Jill won't play ball by the "accepted" rule book, and that's why you won't see her on the MSM alphabet soup media outlets.

--> Keith Olbermann, in a recent offering for GQ, called Jill Stein a "simpleton".   Uh, Keithie - do you know the first thing about Jill Stein or her campaign?   You're proving to be as big of a shill for the one-party-two-brand system as the rest of your former colleagues at MSN-BS, not to mention Slate, Daily Kos, and the rest of them.    Mr. Olbermann also stated "we have had enough" of people like me, who will not vote for Hillary Clinton under any circumstances.   Uh, Keithie - who's "we"?

 More later...

I’ve taken a break from blogging over the last several months, in large part because of a deluge of things that have happened in my life.  ...
