Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Drumming out the Truth

 Can you believe it?  February is past half over?  Spring is really just around the corner.  Forecasters said I was going to wake up to a crusty coat of icy, sleety, snow.  Maybe in your part of the world.  Outside the temp is a nearly balmy 34 (F).  The remnants of the past few storms are slowly melting away.  This is fine with me.  I don't mind winter, but I do long for a return to the more comfortable temps of spring, days when neither the furnace nor the Central Air need to be turned on.

I had a customer call yesterday about returning pieces of vinyl sheet we had cut for him.  We had some serious server problems, so I told him our system was down.  He hung up before I could tell him we don't take back vinyl that has been cut to size unless there is a manufacturers defect.  When customers hear this, they lie and blame the store, saying the vinyl was cut too short.  There is a certain breed of customer who, when faced with the choice of either paying for the cost of his own mistake, or getting a refund by lying, will always lie.  For those who don't know, we call these people Republicans.

Saturday morning, while I was sitting on the sofa in the writing room editing, Biggie decided to join me.  There are times when I think I post more pictures of Lilly and Seig, so, grabbing my phone, I took one of Biggie.  Keep in mind, his head is about the size of a small watermelon.  Here he is:

He's ready for his close-up, Mr. DeMille

On yesterday's entry, Maddie commented about her feelings regarding the Republicans failure to vote guilty on the failed presidents 2nd impeachment.  Keep in mind, 7 chose to side with the Democrats.  That's amazing.  Everybody knows that had there been a secret vote, he would have been found guilty. Still there are concerns regarding his acquittal.  While at lunch, I saw this article in The Guardian illuminating an article in the Wall Street Journal, owned by the Conservative Rupert Murdoch.  The numbers are fascinating.  58% of Americans feel the failed president is guilty of fueling the January 6 insurrection.  That number is not Democrats.  Nope.  That total represents over 330 million Americans.  57% of Republicans say the Loser should run again.  The article goes at great length to emphasize that number equates to the minority party.  On a good day, Republicans make up 30% of all voters.  Basically, 57% of that 30% ( on a good day) want him to run again.  One sentence that is repeated a number of times in the article is 'Democrats will win.'  This is what happens if the lying sack of shit runs, or back a loyalist, or simply back a Republican.  'Democrats will win.'  Americans are furious.  As a result, Republican voices will get louder and louder as they struggle to drum out the truth.

  1. I've a feeling that if it had been a secret ballot, the results would have been more favorable.

  2. Hahaha 'we call them Republicans'. Accurate. The Repugs are now the party of IMPOTUS2, there's no way around it. Spineless and corrupt. I can't wait for Cheeto to get all tangled up in all the legal pain that is coming his way, because he won't have the Repugs to cover his orange ass.
    Cowards.

    XOXO

    1. Nope, just 2. Biggie's AKC name is Siegfried, but every body call him Biggie because he's so big.
