    Went to Sam’s Club today. Had a real eye-opener. Maybe it was because it was Sunday, but 50% of every hispanic/latina/whatever (I can’t keep it all straight) woman was dressed like a stripper/hoochimama/lady of the night/woman of ill repute.

    There were form-fitting tops, with what had to be corsets underneath. There were shirts slit up the back to the shoulderblades. There were leggings/yoda pants. There was the ever popular painted-on jeans. There were ribbons, and ties, and sparkly earings, and rhinestones.

    Above all, they were all wearing stripper shoes. Six inches of heel, in sandals, or pumps, or boots.

    Is this the norm anywhere else? I think I was the only white person in there under maybe 65 or 70. But the brown-eyed girls were hot to trot. One who, whose cups overfloweth, and who was wearing a shirt that was a little too tight, had her back up against her cart, pushing it down the isle absently behind her, while a hispanic guy with a shaved head and sleeves cut off his black t-shirt touched his tongue to hers.

    All in all, good times. I suppose I can get used to the idea of women dressing like this. On some, the effect is more appealing than on others. Saw a woman the other day wearing yoga pants of some kind, and some kind of a matching top (also tight, form fitting, made from the same material). I’m pretty sure she wasn’t wearing undergarments of any kind. Soon the trend will be for women to just not wear clothes. They will have then achieved total freedom and equality.

    Meanwhile, their men will continue wearing ratty tshirts and worn jeans. I think there’s a lesson in there somewhere. I’m loathe to speak it, though, because no matter what it is, I’m pretty sure I’ll be the enemy of everyone.

        Damn, lol, yeah, typo. The WW has been mocking me all day for being slightly out of it today. I think I’m just tired. But, with the cooking and the cleaning and the laundry and the shopping and the working nights, and acting as her teacher aid, grading papers, entering grades, etc, that might be expected.

        Not to mention screaming at the FBI, sternly talking to God, and then still saying “Happy Sunday” to everyone at the grocery store.

        It is amazing how people react to that. Wishing them a happy whatever-day-it-is. The reactions are kinda fun. Mostly it is very, very positive.

        Of course, you get bonus points doing it wearing a Trump MAGA hat in a town that is close to 2/3 hispanic (of which about half seem to speak little or no English). My brother-in-law (local PD officer) has asked me how many times I’ve been beaten up wearing it. He seems to think it is non-trivial for me to do so. So far, no issues. Only one grumpy response, and one almost-laugh at me. I have gotten a few questionable stares, though.

        I will be glad when leggings/yoga pants go out of a style. I’m so tired of seeing women of all sizes wearing them everywhere. I remember when they first started wearing them, they wear shorts or a skirt over them. Why did they have to stop that trend?

        Several, but I’ve never been to any of them. I work from home, so my social circles are pretty limited. My wife thinks the clientele at Sam’s was that way because it was a Sunday, and all the hispanic ladies are out all dressed up for church. That theory has a lot of merit. We live out of town, out in the county, and our church has a large snow-bird population of old white folk, so we have less hispanics at Mass. Those that do show up, though, the younger ladies are usually wearing fairly provocative attire. They are also usually with guys that where I come from wouldn’t be able to attract a date. My wife jokes and says that if anything ever happened to her, I should be able to pull a 10 here pretty easily.

        We also have two large, organized street gangs that have a vindictive war every Christmas. They are Okie Town, and the West Side Naked City. Okie Town was founded by folk from Oklahoma. West Side Naked City is from California and/or Mexico, I believe.

        We do have a military base, the Marine Air Station, here. I think it is the primary source of funding and employment for the city. If it left, it would be agriculture only here. But because of that, there are two strip clubs in town. I’ve never been to either.

        One of the main street/highways runs right past the air base, ’cause that’s where everyone tries to get to and from every day. So you can watch F-35s, F-18s, various older planes and MiGs, Black Hawks, CH-53s, Ospreys, and other vehicles conducting training missions, overflights, etc, constantly. There is always aircraft in the air. You can watch them land and take off, and they overfly the city regularly.

    Janet Reno, the first woman to serve as U.S. attorney general and the epicenter of several political storms during the Clinton administration, has died. She was 78.

    Reno’s goddaughter, Gabrielle D’Alemberte, says Reno died early Monday from complications of Parkinson’s disease.

    Reno was one of the Clinton administration’s most recognizable and polarizing figures. She faced criticism early in her tenure for the deadly raid on the Branch Davidian compound at Waco, Texas.

    In the spring of 2000, the Miami native enraged her hometown’s Cuban-American community by authorizing the armed seizure of 5-year-old Elian Gonzalez from the home of his relatives so he could be returned to Cuba with his father.

    The SJW explained in two sentences.

    The creed of evil has been, since the beginnings of highly industrialized society, not only a precursor of barbarism but a mask of good. The worth of the latter was transferred to the evil that drew to itself all the hatred and resentment of an order which drummed good into its adherents so that it could with impunity be evil.

    The people who know its wrong to vote for Trump, are the ones who gave rise to Trump.
    I know that statement doesn’t make sense. Beck is still drawing conclusions that Trump represents every horrible dictator event we have ever been told about for our future.

    Then the house slaves, AKA MSM, convince the plantation slaves that the Masters have all of their best interest at heart ensuring the house slaves get the lump of sugar and warm bed for another election cycle.

    Progs are vicious and sick. I was having a debate on my SIL’s page (she writes occasionally for Kos and HuffPo). We disagreed, but it was more (me) or less (she and her friends) fact-based. Then this guy shows up and starts attacking me, challenging me to a debate, based on his rules. This was several hours after the original debate took place. I declined, suggesting that he address the points I had already made, and then he said this:

    no I’m not doing that. If you want to do this in a different thread, fine. that, or it starts now, right here, one issue at a time, with evidence of support.

      Have all the people involved been acquainted with the difference between Rhetoric and Dialectic?

      Those are two different languages. One is feelings-based, and one is logic- and reason- and fact-based.

      Scott Adams understands. Vox Day understands.

      You cannot ever persuade with Dialectic someone who only understands Rhetoric.

      Ask Ross Perot, for whose midget a** I voted.

      America has no tendency toward understanding actual dialectic. And a great many Americans know this, and use it to their great advantage. Those are called Democrats.

      If I spoke Chinese and English, I wouldn’t try to argue with someone who only spoke one.

      Things are falling apart so rapidly and completely for Hillary Clinton with every new revelation about her corruption that even her most ardent fans and supporters are being forced to look at the reality of America rejecting the “Demonmother of the Corruption”.

      From Drudge;

      Trump outperforms Romney in Florida by 130,000 votes and 142,000 votes in NC.

      Those numbers will be minuscule when all the counting is done.

      Hillary has only her inner cabal, the truly deluded self proclaimed SJW’s, plantation minded blacks and her voter fraud apparatus going for her. Blacks and Latinos are voting for Trump in the largest numbers that they have ever voted for a republican candidate.

      The majority of Obama’s black vote will stay home. They ain’t no way inspired’ by a crooked old white hag who called them “super predators.” 😎

      The numbers have to be coming in as to just how many votes that the Clinton Machine can steal and how daunting a task they have ahead of them tomorrow . The apparatus is set up to steal more early votes than election day votes. There is more scrutiny than ever before going on at polling places.

      Like Bill and Loretta, it is alleged Hillary met privately with Broward County Florida Election supervisor, Brenda Snipes. Florida is Hillary’s barometer and it is in real jeopardy. My belief is Hillary is hoping for statistical tie in Florida and the vote being decided by her minions, in her favor.

      At this point it is all over in my opinion, of course people still have to go to the polls, of course the MSM is going to try and demoralize us, but barring technical malfeasance Trump is winning in a landslide tomorrow.

      Hillary is thoroughly unlikable, Trump is eminently likable, everybody knows it, even people who hate Trump and love Hillary.

      Even the Idiot Savant Comey’s “Nothing to see here” letter was a win for Trump and a strike against Hillary. 1) Comey bit the tail of the tiger with no plans foe its teeth 2) even fence sitters know that there is no way the FBI conscientiously went through 650,000 emails in 8 days 🙄 3) Luke warm Hillary supporters just yawned at his nonsense and if anything are even less inspired to vote for The Beast.

      At this point each revelation about Hillary small as they are made out to be by the MSM is just another match on a bonfire. Hillary is on fire and all the queens minions and all the queens perverts can’t put her out.

      As Kenny Chesney says;

      “We were striking matches just to watch them burn!”

        My firm belief is that the Hellary wing of the Rat Party has given up on black voters as the -if you’ll excuse the expression – tip of the progressive spear. Their numbers are projected to remain the statistical same through at least mid-century and they’re getting uppity and lead…errr..’led’…by their own racial wranglers. Hence Moslems and Mexicans, they will be needy for quite some time to come and more than glad to dance for th Rat organ grinders.
        It’s gonna be interesting to see how the Rat wranglers try to keep black members who’re gonna get a smaller piece of the pie happy while trying to get heavily Christian Mex members to sit st the same table with Christian-hating Moslems…not that the Mex members will be all that kissy with the Moslems, once you run out of goat stories the silence gets deafening.

    Over next door, letjusticeprevail mused on the Sarasota rally thread about how many rallies Mr. Trump has done in total. I had to jump on that one, and thought I’d share it here also.

    So glad you asked, ljp! I have been keeping a nearly-obsessive calendar of Trump’s events since June of last year. DH has asked (more than once) “Why are you doing that?” And I could only say “I don’t know.” But I did. Every rally (98%of which I’ve also watched), every townhall, every press conference, every debate, every policy speech.

    My totals (drum roll):
    Rallies and townhalls during the primaries: 220
    Rallies and townhalls during the general (including all 5 for today): 152

    The primary season was 13 months The general election season was 16 weeks.

    These numbers do not include the debates, the policy speeches, or the press conferences. Not to mention the incredible number of daily radio and television interviews. No one has EVER worked this hard to run for President. And no one has ever loved us, the American people, this much. I can’t tell you what Hillary’s numbers are, but they are a tiny fraction of what Mr. Trump has done.

    I am just dying to share this. I am not going to say the name of the company, and I don’t want people to try to guess, because I don’t want to cause them trouble. About 6 or 8 months ago, I think it was, I fixed a prepared meal and it was horrible. It was something I had been buying for many, many years. And, I had always liked it. I decided to call the company in case there was something wrong with it and was told it was a new recipe they were using. I may have used some unfortunate words, such as carp or shite in sharing my displeasure. Anyway, they apologized and sent me some coupons.

    About a week ago I received a gift package full of kitchen things. Not cheesy things. Really nice things. An expensive knife, cutting boards and quite a few other things. Included was a note from the president of the company thanking me for the feedback and saying they have decided to go back to the old recipe and they hoped I would continue to be a valued customer. I still can’t get over the surprise. I sent a nice “Thank You” note to the president of the company. I’m guessing I was the first to clue them in that the recipe didn’t need changing.

      Now THAT’S customer service!

      I think the most surprising thing that ever happened to me was when I donated some money to the Republican candidate for the House. Now, my district has been represented by Sander Levin (the brother of ex Senator Carl Levin) for years. Anyway, the guy called me personally to thank me for my donation, and to ask for my input. You could have knocked me over.

    I’ve been wearing my Trump MAGA hat around town for a few months now, and making sure not to leave home without it for the last couple of weeks. My observations are that older white folk (snowbirds) give me dirty looks. Almost without exception. Men and ladies both.

    I’ve had two younger (under 25) checkers at Walmart both react positively towards it, one even remarking negatively on old people that don’t get it and don’t understand.

    I haven’t had any negative reactions from any hispanics at all, but nothing positive either. They seem to mostly just ignore it/me.

    You ladies and gents on here that consider me such a young pup need to do better outreach with your generation. I think it is a lack of understanding of tech, meaning they can’t get the real news. If they are only watching TV, or God-forbid still reading newspapers, it’s no wonder they are ignorant.

    Might be, too, they’re just sticking with the voting their handouts, Medicare, SS, etc.

        What do you think about that? My first-response is extremely hateful and negative, and upon thinking about it deeply, my second response is too.

        Old folks are supposed to be respected for their accumulated experience and wisdom. These folks aren’t. Just what exactly is their purpose here, other than to be a drain on the rest of us supporting them? If we take the liberal policies to their endpoint (complete lives system), these folks should just be put down and eliminated.

        Why should we feel any differently about them, and do anything to look out for them (other than Christian teachings, of course). This is a bit of a rhetorical question, because I’m not that hateful and mean, but good grief. These people are literally dinosaurs.

        Now I’m starting to sound like the ignorant “Remain” voters who were so pissed at the older generations for taking them out of the EU.

        My grandmother, an K-6 and then English teacher at a small school, after Grandpa died, she got an Apple IIc, and learned to program databases and spreadsheets in her 70s.

        She knew how to learn.

        She’s weeping in Heaven for our current batch of “educators”.

        They don’t even know how to learn themselves, tasked with teaching others.

        Never mind. They’re now tasked with indoctrinating others.

I called the local station to let them know that locally the institutionalized retarded, right down to the bed-ridden ones whose levels of awareness can’t don’t even allow attend to their personal needs or even feed themselves, vote. No word as to who ‘advises’ them or marks their ballots…it’s all secret…so despute having no idea WTF they’re doing they do it.

      Louise: Right. This is going to be quicker, slightly quicker than normal, but it’s Louise Mensch, Vox Day recording this debate, which Vox suggested that we do after the election, but I think that after the election is the coward’s way out and beneath us both. Because, after the election you can redo your prediction to say in light of everything how right you were. Why didn’t astrologists ever predict anything before it actually happens? First of all, let’s put our reputations on the line by giving our predictions for the overall winner, and by approximately how much. You go first, Vox.

    UNIONS
    Secretary Clinton, yesterday in St. Louis, you spoke at carpenters and others “who built this nation.” Both you and Senator Sanders depend on big union support. President Obama pushed for a massive infrastructure bill that would mean millions of jobs for in this area. Yet many of these trade unions have locked out Blacks and other minorities for years. Will you call a meeting with them before November, and if you win, when you are president, to demand that the trade unions stop freezing Blacks and others from these good paying jobs?

    INCOME INEQUALITY
    Senators Sanders, you and Hillary Clinton have often talked about the problem of income inequality. Many other Democrats have. Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr. has talked about the lack of economic upward mobility for Black and other minorities in Silicon Valley and corporate America. Yet Power Pac Plus did a study showing that four years ago, the Democratic Party spent $514 million on consultants, and only 1.7%, or $8.4 million went to minority-owned firms or firms with at least one minority principle. How can the public be assured that either one of you or the Democratic Party can fix income inequality when the same party practices it?

    DEATH PENALTY
    19 states and the District of Columbia have banned the death penalty. 31 states, including Ohio, still have the death penalty. According to the National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty, since 1973, 156 people have been on death row and later set free. Since 1976, 1,414 people have been executed in the U.S. That’s 11% of Americans who were sentenced to die, but later exonerated and freed. Should Ohio and the 30 other states join the current list and abolish the death penalty? Sent from Donna’s I Pad. Follow me on twitter @donnabrazile
