JILL STEIN: Trump is less scary, because he will work with Russia. Hillary means WWIII!
Funny, that’s the opposite of what most people are telling us.

FROM SCOTT ADAMS, a Trump vs. Clinton Risk Assessment. I dunno about one of his factors, though — I’d take Churchill in a minute. “In most presidential elections, voters have a choice of one social drinker or the other social drinker. Risk-wise, that’s a tie. But this election features a candidate who is known to like her alcohol versus a candidate who has reportedly never had a drink, an illegal drug, or a cigarette. And that means alcohol can be considered in the risk assessment.”

DISPATCHES FROM THE EDUCATION APOCALYPSE, Y’ALL: Student Op-Ed: It’s ‘Cultural Appropriation’ to Say ‘Y’All’ If You’re Not from the South.
Bless her heart, as legendary good ol’ boy Mitt Romney would say.

HALLOWEEN NEWS YOU CAN USE: “You need to understand that WASPs are a minority group who suffer from dwindling population numbers due to lack of interest in procreation behaviors. We have also been subject to negative Hollywood stereotypes as far back as the 1980s, often unfairly portrayed as ‘rich kids’ when in fact we’re merely well off. So going to your school’s Halloween party wearing pants embroidered with sailboats, carrying a gin-and-tonic, and wearing a name tag that says ‘Chip’ or ‘Muffy’ while spouting off-color jokes about Catholics, Jews, Negroes, Homosexuals and Communists trivializes the 400 years of toil it took our ancestors to build a life for us in suburban Connecticut…if you’re thinking of going to a campus Halloween party dressed as a WASP, I’m here to tell you THAT IS NOT OKAY.”

WELL, THIS IS THE 21ST CENTURY, YOU KNOW: Scientists create Viagra mouth spray that perks up blokes in seconds.
Tests showed a quick squirt worked faster than tablets that took an hour and the effects lasted for more than an hour-and-a-half. Scientists claim it could “revolutionise” the sex lives of millions of men and could be available within three years.
Experts in Taiwan mixed tiny drops of sildenafil, the chemical Viagra, with food-grade propylene glycol.
Well, good.
ARE WE FACING A BOURBON BUBBLE? “There were just 204 craft spirits distillers across America in 2010, while that number grew to 1,315 this year through August.” It would be awful if prices were to fall or something.
SURE, THAT’LL WORK: UK seeks to increase penalties for carrying knives. I’m happy to say that in the United States — and particularly in Tennessee — the trend is in the opposite direction.

RIDE THE HILLARY RECURSION: Hillary Clinton Just Resurrected the 1964 Daisy Ad. “You know they’re desperate when they’re resurrecting an ad from 50 years ago!!”
Huh – that was the ad that nuked the candidate whom Clinton herself supported in 1964. The same candidate that CBS’s anchors worked overtime to smear as a crypto-Nazi. (Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose.) So if the ad is successful, will the left view Hillary with as much contempt as they did fellow Democrat LBJ in the mid-‘60s?

NOBODY TELL HILLARY: There Is a No-Fly Zone in Syria — One Russia Created.
The first thing the Russians did was to bring in and install a massive deployment of the sophisticated and integrated anti-aircraft weapons system called the S-300 at their $3 billion naval base in Tartus The S-300 is, by the way, the same system they are selling and delivering to the Iranians. That move took place on October 3rd. The new S-300 deployment augmented the S-200s that were already in place throughout Syria.
Next, the Russians added a series of very effective short range surface-to-air missiles. The PantsirS1 and the Buk missiles are part of the naval weapons on Russia’s guided missile cruisers which sit anchored off the Syrian coast.
Now, add to that the Integrated Defense System which links all these systems plus others like the most advanced and newest of all missiles, the S-400 missile system which has a range of 350 miles and, voila, a Russian-operated no-fly zone is born.
Neither ISIS nor the Syrian rebels posses any aircraft to shoot down.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN — with this spooky flashback to 2004.
THE LEFT MORPHED INTO JUDGE ELIHU SMAILS SO SLOWLY, I HARDLY EVEN NOTICED:
Shot:
As the elderly black female homeless Trump supporter was curled in the fetal position on the sidewalk while street swine jeered at her from all sides, a black man leaned over and told her that she’d brought it all on herself:
Didn’t I tell you about five minutes ago that somebody’s gonna walk by here and no, I would not defend you? ‘Cause you spewed hate, and you got hate. You got exactly what you were dishin’ out. I told you. I warned you on that.
The woman, still unidentified, had taken it upon herself to protect Donald Trump’s star on Hollywood Boulevard a day after “millionaire activist James Otis” had violently destroyed it last Wednesday morning with a pickaxe in a hissy-fit over news reports that Trump was, like, mean to women or something.

Sometimes Left-wing people are made angry by other people
Left-wing people care so much, it makes them hate people who don’t show that they care. These people are right-wing people. Left-wing people have given them a name. It is “Tory scum”. Left-wing people like to shout at the right-wing people and tell them that they are scum even when they aren’t listening.
Shouting at the Tories is another way to show that they care. Caring is very important to left-wing people.
Left-wing people care so deeply that they don’t have time for thinking and convincing. They use their precious time for shouting about caring.
Also, working-class people don’t know what left-wing people are saying, so it is helpful when they point to the right-wing people and shout “scum”. They think that working-class people do understand shouting and caring.
If you have observed someone and you are not sure if they are a left-wing person, seek their opinion on “the Tories”. If they start to shout and care, they are left-wing.

Hangover:
You know, despite what happened, I’m still convinced you have many fine qualities and I think you can still become a gentleman some day if you understand and abide by the rules of decent society. Danny, Danny, there’s a lot of, uh, well, badness in the world today. I see it in court today. I’ve sentenced boys younger than you to the gas chamber. Didn’t wanna do it, but felt I owed it to them.
—Ted Knight as Judge Elihu Smails in the 1980 comedy Caddyshack. I’m pretty sure though, that Knight and writer-director Harold Ramis hadn’t intended Smails to be a how-to guide for the left’s toxic blend of sanctimonious hate.
