Hubby and I decided to meander down to Ortega Highway, Route 74, and meander over the mountains down into San Juan Capistrano then to San Clemente to have dinner on the pier. Near the top of Ortega Highway sits the tiny village of El Cariso. We stopped at the one restaurant, Hell’s Kitchen to split a sandwich, enjoy the funky dive (hey, where else can you gather your condiments for

…I wrote, “[the GOP brand has]  been damaged by years of moving leftward, and letting the left frame each new lurch that way as the benchmark for “extremism” — while they themselves can move even more left” as a way to keep the distance between the parties apparent (and because that’s where they wish to take us). And then, happily, I was greeted with this:  “Bill Kristol: ‘It Won’t Kill

See if any of this sounds vaguely familiar to you, dear readers: Sadly, racial identity politics, originated as a divide-and-conquer propaganda campaign by the Soviets in the 1920s, and then picked up again in earnest in the 1960s by those like communist history professor Howard Zinn, determined the election. Today, Weatherman founder, terrorist, and former professor of education Bill Ayers continues the Soviet disinformation campaign of attributing racism to capitalism.

I eagerly await the “million muppets for pederasty” march.

Or rather, it should be.  But then, that would mean the kind of puristy baggage that simply doesn’t sell in this changing electoral landscape.  Wherein we must adapt, finesse, massage, and adjust our principles to meet the new reality if we ever wish to regain power.  And we do, power being the ultimate goal.  Liberty, individual autonomy, a free market capitalist system built on a stable rule of law and

But it’s the very kind of thing Hillary and Obama have supported in an effort to tweak our First Amendment and end all the hatred that that odious amendment, as currently understood, unleashes into a world where hatred cannot be tolerated.  We must be intolerant of intolerance!

I wonder what color the ribbons will be?  The Los Angeles City Council is urging all residents to observe “meatless Mondays” from now on. A resolution adopted on Oct. 24 reads: “Be it resolved, that the Council of the City of Los Angeles hereby declares all Mondays as ‘Meatless Mondays’ in support of comprehensive sustainability efforts as well as to further encourage residents to eat a more varied plant-based diet

You guys are fine, I suppose, so long as you agree to support moderate Republican candidates who spend compassionately, and so long as you stop whining like bitchy little Hobbits about debt ceiling increases and compromises on principle that move the country leftward by institutionalizing a Marxist class dynamic of punitive taxation. Shed that puristy cloak of fail.  Join team electability.  Get on board for the big win!

It’s unsolicited, but here it is, anyway:  leave the GOP. Give your two weeks notice.  Because you are always going to be portrayed as the problem, and the solution is always going to be that you need to shut your clownish pieholes.  Not only that, but you use your franchise in a way that simply isn’t helpful, voting in primaries the way you do for candidates that don’t have the
