As the "Ladies" are no longer content to push their husbands into crime to reach an exalted status, she was not ambitious for a spouse, but for herself.
Hillary has no one to blame but herself. She surrounded herself with synchophants - those eager to be a part of the inner circle, and willing to damn their souls to Hell for that privilege. She created fear in those opposing her - by her ranting, her foul-mouthed rages, and her willingness to push others to lie, cheat, and steal.
So, no, I can't feel sorry for her. If she is indicted, she may well become an Historic First - the First Female Felon to have lived in the White House. I am, however, compassionate enough to grudgingly allow her to serve time under house arrest, rather than the Big House (which, in fact, she deserves). However, ALL of her and her family's ill-gotten gains should be forfeited to paying down the National Debt.
I pity the poor Secret Service agents that have to follow her into her exile - she is unlikely to reverse a lifelong habit of blaming others and spewing profane, vulgar invectives.

Woo-EEE! People are HOT About HRC
Hot, as in - want her to go to JAIL!
Read this scorcher.
Yeah, this is strange - when the Democratic Party/Clinton Machine doesn't spew the October Surprise. I'm of the opinion that Comey has a SCORCHER of an email, a true smoking gun, that he wanted to get out, lest it burn him and his career. Nothing less would justify a career bureaucrat taking the risk of openly opposing the Justice Dept.
Better stay away from isolated places, Comey. And, get a food taster, as well.
The laptops LIVE!
Too many exclamation points? Yeah, but the last couple of weeks certainly justify it.
I never thought Huma was all that smart. It appears that I was right, as she didn't even have the intelligence to either delete/bleach the laptop, or have it "mysteriously" disappear.

What Part of Society is Obsolete?
This post is worth reading - it asks the question:
How should society be structured? Will the "little people" need to be given sustenance by the elite? Or, are those people, in fact, the ones that need to worry?

Let Us Pray for Those Two People Who Sacrificed So Much
One of them in Chicago, one in Cleveland.
Who obviously sold their souls to the Devil, that the rest of us could see our teams in the World Series.

HRC and the Push to Conformity
Just one more thing to think about as you ponder the fast-approaching election.
HRC's entire campaign is designed to capture the conformists. Yes, she would be the first woman nominated by a major party, but - you are being asked to GO ALONG with the group in voting for her (I'm With HER). You are NOT being cajoled to act against the group, in defiance of conventional wisdom. You are being assured that EVERYBODY is voting for her, so why not go along?
Trump, on the other hand, is appealing to the contrary element in America - those who are not ashamed to be different, those whose answer to the question, "Why can't you just do what everyone else does?" is "Why should I?"
This is a demographic that is not often a target of the GOTV efforts - only a few times have there come along candidates that pulled unengaged citizens into registering to vote, and going to the polls. One of them was George Wallace.
My father first registered to vote when Wallace came on the scene. No, he didn't vote for him because he was an incipient Nazi, nor did he long for those "Good Old Days" of KKK, lynching, and keeping "them" in their place.
Instead, he was drawn to the populist theme - that ALL should have to follow the same laws (no voting for busing by those who sent their own kids to private schools to avoid Blacks), that order is better than disorder (the Democratic convention rioting had an impact on him), and that the system was rigged against the average man.
Dad was likely able to stand firm against the crowd due to geographic accident - he was born and raised in West Virginia, a state that elevates the contrary thinker. Not going along may be part of the DNA of hill people.
I'm including a link to a new film about how easy it is to push people into dreadful actions, because the average person wants to go along. Keep reading to the end - there's a funny - but poignant - episode of Candid Camera, that shows how easy it is to exploit most people's desire to be a part of the crowd.

HSFWALT
HeSeFWALT, I'm gonna call it.
Have Some Fun With A Liberal Today.
Walk up to a rabid HRC fan. Tell that person that you WERE planning to vote for Trump, but he did something so STUPID that you cannot POSSIBLY vote for him. What did he do?
He informed the world that it takes FOUR minutes for the nuclear missles to be ready to launch, in the event of an attack. He GAVE away CLASSIFIED INFORMATION, for crying out loud!
Accept their understanding of the horribleness of that. Allow them to agree that someone so clueless should never be anywhere in the vicinity of the Oval Office.
Really milk it - for 5-10 minutes.
Then, tell them that the Dumba$$ was HRC.
Watch their heads explode.

Yet Another Reason To Not Vote For Hillary
The "Comprehensive Plan to Get Your Money in Their Pockets".
Ooops, I'm sorry, I MEANT to write the "Comprehensive Plan to Fix Social Security".
The reasons for not doing something about it never made sense to me. Yeah, the voting taxpayers would kick up a fuss at paying more, but that's never stopped any politician from taking their money before.
This, however, does provide a solid reason for letting SS decay.
What if allowing SS to run out of money IS the plan? What if the idea is to enrich their Elitist Friends on Wall Street and in the banking industry?

When Democrats Steal the Election...
...Good Republicans should shut up, give in, and let the Cheaters take office.
NO. That ship has sailed. After Gore tried to "prove" that he won - even though ALL the recounts STILL had him losing - and took the fight to the Supreme Court, Dems proved that the Gracious Loser idea was only meant for Republicans.
Trump is right - he can't commit to "gracefully" conceding for "the good of the country" - that just lets the Dems know just how much to put their thumb on the scales.
Here's another article about 8 times some people may have engaged in election rigging, or been accused of it (I wonder which party did THAT) - in a variety of contests.

Misleading Stats
One of the aspects of campaign commercials that I hate is "spin". It's use of "almost-truth" to shore up your candidate. One stat that is often used is deportations.
This article explains why many of the ads/news articles (too often, the same thing) can generate such different numbers, when discussing the same things. These very different numbers lead to the opposing conclusions that fuel the accusations of lying.
Neither side is technically lying - but, in many cases, one or BOTH are playing with definitions, using stats misleadingly, or extending a trend beyond what the data can justify (the "hockey stick" example).

Watergate Redux: What Did the President Know, and When Did He Know It?
Yes, for us old fogies, that headline should ring a memory bell. Yes, it is, indeed, pertinent to the email scandal. In a just world, the President and HRC should have to face the music about their actions - a particularly apt ending for a woman who worked on the Watergate Committee, until she was fired/let go (stories are conflicting) for violations of the code of lawyers ethics.
It doesn't appear that she has changed her underlying modus operandi.
But, it is likely she will NOT be prosecuted, even in the unlikely case of a Trump victory. Americans are big on forgiveness, and - after their political enemies are defeated at the polls - generally drop further action against them.
If she does get elected? Aside from trashing the Constitution, adding a load of debt to the Federal obligations, giving away tax breaks and other financial gifts to her corporate sponsors, forcing her enemies to lick dirt - all for the dubious privilege of allowing them to remain out of jail, broke and disgraced, and putting an admitted sexual abuser into a position (FLOTUS) that allows him free reign to harass, she will have the power to resist facing the consequences of her actions with her server.

WHY the Anti-Trump Message Does Not Appear to be Getting Through
It's because those spreading the message are operating under a misapprehension.
They are saying/writing:
Share
They are saying/writing:
- He is a womanizing, serial abuser of innocent women's dignity
- He says things that are over the top, and garbles the message, as well
- He is a braggart, whose net worth is FAR less than he pretends
- He is ignorant of foreign policy, law, and working with others
- He has played nice with dictators, politicians, and other rich people
- He doesn't care about the common man/woman/child
What the Anti-Trump Brigades doesn't get:
- We don't care
- We EXPECT those running for office to lie
- We don't need our politicians to pretend to give a d@mn about us - we KNOW they don't
- We are HIGHLY suspicious of sexual harassment claims - the Leftists have been The Boy Who Cried Wolf once too often
- We don't care whether his wealth is true, or exaggerated - we care a LOT more about our own money
- The so-called "experts" in foreign policy don't impress us - we've seen them screw up, get people killed, and then pretend that they MEANT for that to happen/it didn't happen/it happened, but it was the fault of someone else
That's just a small part of what the thinking is. In short, it's the Revolt of the Average Man (copyright pending).

The Fix is In
There WILL be NO more revelations of any consequence about HRC's email crimes. The fix is in.
How do I know?
On September 7, 2016, Assange promised leaks about Hillary, very soon. HRC's crack staff of leak-fillers got the word to him to back off - and he did signal his understanding of the deal offered to him, on Tuesday, October 4, 2016, when he weaseled on the revelations, promising that there would be "a great many upcoming publications". At that time, he also alluded to one of the many "mysterious deaths" that occur to people that cross the Clintons.
Just watch - he will be permitted into the States again during her presidency (Please, God, NO!), and given a minimal sentence, or have his case dropped by the AG. He will NOT serve hard time - he is likely to have his prosecution "bungled" by the HRC-loyal brigade, allowing them to say, "we tried".
He will NOT be coming to the rescue of the Trump campaign. That help is OVER.
God Save the Republic.

Things Are Heating Up Again
Life had slowed down a little (Thank God, as I was able to use that time to (1) clean/organize my house - not completely, but significantly, and, (2) catch up on work/grading/business).
As a result, I have not been updating my blog posts, except sporadically. Which, given how much this election is beginning to resemble a cage match, is probably a good thing.
The next debate is at 9 pm tonight. Preceding it is the Cleveland Indians/Boston Red Sox game at 4 pm. I may just skip that latter event. I've not watched most of the debates this cycle - after about 15-20 minutes, I've had enough. I can pick up the highlights from the news, fact-check that news with the blogs, and save myself a lot of time.
So, I may just turn in early, and enjoy my Professional Development Day on Monday.

What EVER Could Be the Reason?
Two travelers were singled out for - get this - weight discrimination, and FORCED to get onto a scale.
Not only that, but they were then put into seats that they did NOT choose, to make sure that the mass of passengers on the plane was evenly distributed - because that would be important in making sure that the plane didn't crash.
Oh, the HORROR!
I did laugh, because it was Hawaiian Airlines. You know, the place that has 45% of its native population obese. Not to pick on them, it's a serious health issue, and they should not be shamed for something they apparently have in their genetic makeup.
It's not surprising that some of the traveling public might be a wee bit heavier than the average - or a LOT.
Come on! Placating the travelers, and pretending that their greater weight won't cause stability issues with the plane is NOT a satisfactory solution.

More VA Incompetence - or Malice?
This is ridiculous! At a time when VA hospitals are in crisis, the administration choses to move a person who has led FAILING facilities, rather than someone who has experienced success.
