Last weekend, Marjorie Taylor Green (R-GA) was at Charlie Kirk's gathering for white supremacists - Turning Point USA Conference, and she said what she thought were some fightin’ words about Joe Biden, but turned out to be high praise for Biden - if you’re not a lunatic: Joe Biden had the largest public investment in social infrastructure and environmental programs that is actually finishing what FDR started, that LBJ expanded on, and Joe Biden is attempting to complete. Programs to address education, medical care, urban problems, rural poverty, transportation, Medicare, Medicaid, labor unions, and he still is working on it. Essentially, as with the seasoned delivery of a third grader whose mom wrote their oral book report in the car on the way to school that morning, Greene ticked off all the ways Joe Biden and LBJ are the same. She said Biden and LBJ are both “Democrat socialists,” because Marjorie is not very bright and doesn’t know what words mean. Ol' Joe's re-election campaign quickly used the above in a campaign ad, and "approved" MTG's message.

I loved the Biden campaign's ad. Brilliant.
A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.
Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

Not quite sure why, but RR went down and it took me a while to get it back up and running. My apologies. Please let me know if anyone sees any more problems.

Doug I went through a bit of a panic, myself. I was worried about you, my friend. Glad it was just a glitch.

Pictures generally tell more than words, anyway.

That picture tells me that one guy is a stellar thinker, and one has the IQ of a knat.

You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.
