The question out there is, will this be a peaceful convention, or another 1968 disaster?

After refreshing my memory about what happened in '68, I don't see the same ingredients and scenario. Daly warned the "un-patriotic to stay away". Well in 2024, the un-patriotic "burn it down" crowd is what makes up the DNC. The radical communists run the show.

Q: If civil unrest breaks out against these degenerates, who will be doing the protesting?

Leaving the 28th for a visit with the Tonkawa brothers whom I haven't seen since the Garden of Eden wilted. Then on to Fort Collins, CO to visit with younger daughter. Freshman granddaughter is home from Syracuse U.

I just subscribed to XM Radio for the trip so I can listen to barely perceptable separation fifties and sixties stereo gold oldies. It was rare those oldies were recorded in stereo but those that were I like to listen. I'll cancel after return. I used to subscribe regularly when XM awarded music channels with greater bandwith for much more noticeable stereo separation. But XM added more channels and allocated bandwith to new channels, degrading current channels. Jerks!!!

I must check out Fort Collins city-owned all fiber Connexion Internet Service. Son-in-law works a lot from home and is really pleased.

FEC Chair said that Biden Campaign did not file any paperwork to see if it is legal to transfer his campaign funds to Kamala. Said that is a problem. Expect potential lawsuits from donors or Trump. But the courts will not rule or fine until after the election.

Great point Musk. They essentially killed your son. Those people are just flat out garbage.

But Reeeeeeee!!!!!! Orange Man Bad!!!!!!

Now that Joe Biden has stepped down and endorsed Kamala Harris do you think he will go on the campaign trail on her behalf? Would he be an asset or a burden? I’m sure all the heavy hitters, Obama, the Clintons, etc. will work tirelessly on her campaign, and they will be essential for her to make a decent run. But what about Biden? Will he be stuffed in a closet in the basement, or will they use him? Also, it occurs to me they will send Obama out with her as often as possible and see to it he does most of the talking, reducing the number of times she launches a word salad. I still think Trump will win handily, but it will be fascinating to watch everything unfold.

This is going to be a very aggressive meeting.

Dems are already using this to go after guns. You can't make this up.

Should we feel sorry for her?

Now joins Schmidt, Eddie Mathews and Chipper Jones as the only 3rd baseman to hit 400 HR. Will also pass 2700 hits next month, only 3B to do that are George Brett, Wade Boggs, Brooks Robinson and Chipper.

Now defense..

Per defensive WAR (dWAR) and defensive runs saved above average (DRAA),3Beltre is the second-best defensive third baseman in baseball history. Only Brooks Robinson, whom Reds manager Sparky Anderson had nightmares about after Robinson’s unforgettable defensive performance in the 1970 World Series, ranks better. According to dWAR, only 19 other players (across all positions) in baseball history were more valuable defensively than Beltre has been.

The defender most like Beltre at this point is Mazeroski, who made it to the Hall almost entirely on his defense. Beltre, by contrast, combinesMazeroski-like defense with vastly superior offensive stats and greater durability.

… that we rarely see Joe Biden out in public again until the Democratic Convention, or until Election Day, or maybe ever.

It would not surprise me if his handlers are saying he has Covid just to be able to keep him out of public view. I also wouldn’t be surprised if the only thing that allows him to go out in public is being heavily medicated.

It will be interesting to see if he makes any kind of public statement for awhile. Thus, the press release type messages rather than getting in front of the media and speaking publicly.

Democrats had been using him as a figurehead for so long. Now they’ve been exposed.

All rules mimic college rules.

A terrific piece of writing.

This 67 yr old out of shape bad golfer just finished 4 rounds (3 walking). 75 degree weather and amazing beautiful courses everyone should experience. Amazing what toilets and sinks can buy

Who cares if it’s genocide, these subhumans deserve everything they’re getting.
