Just getting us started for the month. Nothing really to report or say, just that I can't believe it's August already.

Yes! So true! Scary but true. They all look alike to me. The kind of guy I'd never buy a car or a pillow from. Or, even allow near the White House!

Hell of a good question! Oaths are foolish things anyway. Stupid stuff.
Who truly believes a criminal placing his hand on a book and making a promise to tell the truth won't lie?
If you do believe that I have a used car for sale and it's in excellent condition. Lol.

I'll be interested to see what happens in the recall vote for Newsom in California. Last time there was a recall we ended up with Arnold Schwarzenegger. I pray the citizens of California won't be that stupid this time around. It sounds like the biggest challenge to Newsom is the Democrats getting the vote out.

luanne , I think the Governator actually had some good ideas, i.e. more reservoirs, pandemic preparedness, (it was back in H1N1 times, wasn't it?) but he could accomplish nothing with the legislature. Newsom is no Jerry Brown, but I don't see any candidate that is competent to replace him. I loved Brown, but he had his blind spots too.

Another sex scandal. I'm tired of it. I've heard other countries just accept this as normal male behavior. Maybe we would actually hear some real news or how these men are making our government better and stronger if we didn't make their sexual encounters real news. Save it for The Enquirer, please.
Or, vote for women for a change.

For real news: Hurrah for Texas schools and cities/counties telling Abbot to jump off about mask mandates! Yeah it won't necessarily hold up in court long term (The Texas Supreme Court is all GOP), but for the time being, it's heartening to see officials actually giving a damn about the people and not the politics.

Do we want to have a discussion about what is happening in Afghanistan?

The takeover happened so fast, they were poised to move and the Afghan government/military wasn't. But, we (USA/other countries) couldn't stay there forever. I'm not cold about it, I just don't know that anything more could have been done from our side.
