A Beer a Day Keeps the Doctor Away

“A pint of beer a day could help reduce the risk of having a stroke or developing cardiovascular disease, new research has found.

A study of 80,000 adults found the natural decline in high-density lipoprotein (HDL), or “good” cholesterol, in the body was slowed by a moderate intake of alcohol.

The results showed that one or two daily servings of alcohol for a man, or up to one for a woman, was associated with a slower HDL decline than either not drinking at all, or drinking too heavily”

We’re all familiar with the axiom “an apple a day keeps the doctor away”, and while it’s certainly true that an apple is a delicious fruit that provides a moderate content of dietary fiber, it does nothing to improve your psychological health.

With Trump in the White House and ISIS threatening to wreak  havoc in America we need something more than just an apple a day to maintain our psychological and spiritual well-being.

I prefer a pint or two of beer over a barrel of apples, a healthy beer buzz while watching the evening news will prevent me from suffering a stroke or a heart attack.

The world may be going to hell in a handbasket, but I’ll survive as long as I have my daily intake of beer.

Hillary Clinton Has Only Herself to Blame

hillary-clinton-angry-bitcy
“Hillary Clinton on Saturday cast blame for her surprise election loss on the announcement by the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, days before the election that he had revived the inquiry into her use of a private email server.

In her most extensive remarks since she conceded the race to Donald J. Trump early Wednesday, Mrs. Clinton told donors on a 30-minute conference call that Mr. Comey’s decision to send a letter to Congress about the inquiry 11 days before Election Day had thrust the controversy back into the news and had prevented her from ending the campaign with an optimistic closing argument.

‘There are lots of reasons why an election like this is not successful,’ Mrs. Clinton said, according to a donor who relayed the remarks. But, she added, ‘our analysis is that Comey’s letter raising doubts that were groundless, baseless, proven to be, stopped our momentum.'”

New York Times

Hillary Clinton is correct that there were a lot of reasons why she lost the election, but she’s disingenuously  deflecting blame, by pointing the finger at the FBI director.

Comey’s bombshell coming just days before the election brought her momentum to a screeching halt, and forced her to end her campaign on a negative note trashing Trump, instead of highlighting her positive agenda.

But Hillary needs to take a hard look in the mirror, most of the reasons why she was defeated emanate from her defective personality.

It was Hillary’s enormous ego that caused her to campaign in red states in the closing weeks of the campaign, instead of shoring up her support  in blue states like Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. Hillary was going for an electoral college landslide, and instead even traditional blue states turned red.

It was Hillary’s feeling that she was above the law that caused the server controversy. She has only herself to blame for the email scandal, not Comey or a vast right-wing conspiracy.

It was Hillary’s lack of transparency that kept her from divulging her medical history. If Hillary had announced that she was suffering from pneumonia, the September, 11, 2016 feinting episode would have been a minor blip, instead of an incident that caused many voters to wonder if she had serious medical issues.

It was Hillary’s mean and vindictive spirit that motivated her to base her entire campaign trying to discredit and disqualify Trump, instead of running a positive campaign on the issues important to the electorate: It’s the economy stupid!

It was Hillary’s corrupt nature that embroiled her in one scandal after another stretching back decades, the email and Clinton Foundation scandals were just the final straws that broke the camel’s back.

Hillary failed to shatter the glass ceiling, her dream of becoming the first female president of the United States is shattered, and she has only herself to blame.

 

 

Donald Trump Destroyed Clinton and Bush Dynasties, Hopefully He Will Smash Capitalism

My political views are eclectic and contrarian, and my voting history reflects that I’ve voted for Republicans, Democrats and Independents.

In the Democratic primaries I supported Bernie Sanders, the socialist curmudgeon Senator from Vermont. Even though the odds were stacked against Sanders, he almost won. But the Clinton machine, the Democratic establishment, the donor class, the media — indeed the entire crooked system was rigged in favor of Hillary.

In the General Election I held my nose, bit my tongue and voted for Donald Trump, the populist vulgarian. Sanders is spot on, we need a revolution, and Hillary was the embodiment of the corrupt establishment that needs to be overthrown. I, along with millions of my fellow Americans, opted for the racist clown over the corrupt witch.

The odds were stacked against Trump even more than they were against Sanders. The Republican establishment, the Democratic establishment, Wall Street, the intelligentsia, the media, the donor class, civil rights organizations, foreign leaders –indeed the entire world was dead set against Trump.

But voters, especially working class whites, were in a revolutionary state of mind, and they said: F*** it, I’m voting for Trump.

As an Hispanic working stiff, voting for Trump wasn’t in my economic self-interest, but maybe some good will come out of a disastrous election: Deliberately or inadvertently the clueless billionaire may blow up the nefarious system.

Keep in mind that Trump has already destroyed the Bush and Clinton dynasties, who’s to say that he can’t single-handedly smash the crony capitalism that passes as democracy.

After four years of Trump incompetence, tomfoolery and stupidity, we can reestablish a democracy from the ruins he will undoubtedly leave behind.

The Real Huma Abedin

huma-abedin

Huma Abedin recently announced that she was separating from her husband, former congressman Anthony Weiner (aka Carlos Danger) who resigned under pressure in 2011 after sending dic pics to strange women he met online.

 

Abedin didn’t leave her disgusting husband until a newspaper reported that Weiner had sent a pic of his crotch last year while his toddler son was curled in the bed next to him.

 

The FBI is investigating Weiner because he sent pornographic material to a 15-year-old girl.

What took so long for Abedin to ditch her pedophile pervert husband? Glad you asked! Indeed why would an Islamist marry a Jew from New York City?

 

Abedin has been constantly by Hillary’s side since 1996 when she was an intern for the then First Lady. It is the least well-kept secret in Washington that Hillary is a lesbian, and naturally everyone assumed that Abedin must be Hillary’s aide/lover.

 

Weiner was Abedin’s beard plain and simple, it was politically-expedient for her to pretend that she was heterosexual. Abedin also had to give the illusion that she was straight, because if it became common knowledge that she’s a lesbian it would only be a matter of time before she was killed by an outraged Islamist.

 

Abedin also needed Weiner as a babysitter. Abedin is constantly travelling with Hillary; she simply has no time or desire to be a mother.

Only after the sickening photo of Weiner in his underwear with an erect penis with his innocent son sleeping next to him was published, did Abedin finally kick him to the curb.
Weiner may be a pedophile pervert who deserves to be imprisoned; But Abedin is wretched mother who cares more about Hillary than she does her own son.

The Real Hillary Clinton

hillary-clinton

Hillary Clinton is the consummate politician who realizes that appearances are everything. She may be 69 and in failing health, but her hair is perfectly coiffed and colored, and her makeup is subtle and commensurate with a woman her age. She may wear a pantsuit every day of the year, but it’s always well pressed and understated.

Hillary is educated and articulate, when she’s not in campaign mode screeching and cackling, she sounds rational and intelligent. Hillary comes across like a grandmother that you would meet in a church social chatting about climate change and the neighborhood watch program.

A citizen who hasn’t seen Hillary on the campaign trail going off on a tirade against Donald Trump, and whose only exposure to her has been her TV commercials might be inclined to vote for her.

But don’t let Hillary’s carefully crafted public persona and her sycophants in the national media fool you, the WikiLeaks emails have exposed her as a conniving and corrupt political hack who is more than willing to break the law to achieve her goals.

On the debate stage Hillary was calm and measured, compared to the out-of-control Trump. But in private, when dealing with her staff and underlings, she abusive and prone to throwing violent tantrums. Several Secret Service Agents and former staffers have written books exposing her as a sociopath.

Hillary may act like a prim and proper grandmother, but in reality she is a sociopath who’s incapable of empathizing with regular folks.

 

Kate McKinnon: Too Beautiful, Young and Charming to Play Hillary Clinton

hillary-clinton

Alex Baldwin has earned praise from all quarters for his impersonation of Donald Trump. The Saturday Night Live (SNL) star’s impersonation of Trump is eerily accurate; he perfectly captures the grotesqueness of the Republican nominee.

 

Kate McKinnon has been portraying Hillary Clinton on SNL since early 2015, and she’s won an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy, in large part because of her impersonation of the Democratic nominee for president.
McKinnon is young, beautiful, funny, and talented, everything that Hillary is not, which makes her not the best choice to play Hillary.

 
I wouldn’t mind having a couple of beers with McKinnon in a bar, or in my bed, but I would rather be dead, and burning in hell, than spend one minute with Hillary.

 
It’s an affront to comedy and common sense to have McKinnon play Hillary; the mainstream media goes to ridiculous lengths trying to humanize the wretched witch known as Hillary.

 
Tina Fey as Sarah Palin: Brilliant!

 
Alex Baldwin as Donald Trump: Stroke of genius!

 
Amy Poehler as Hillary Clinton: Terrific!

 
Kate McKinnon as Hillary Clinton: Are you freaking kidding me?
