Finally. It’s here.

MY BALLOT came in the mail this weekend.  The election season is here.  I'll be taking a half hour or so tomorrow to fill it out.  The ballot is long; the blue book that is provided to all voters, is 89 pa

I already read the blue book, which includes detailed information on all the ballot initiatives (from bring Gray Wolves in from other states to tax vaping at the same rate as tobacco products)  It includes tax implications for each initiative, costs to the state, and a paragraph or two on the pros and cons of each item.

So I'm anxious to get this done tomorrow.  That will mark the last day of the election season for me.

THE NY TIMES DROPS TRUMP'S TAX SCAMS.

  PENSEE #7  Trump's worst nightmare has arrived.  The New York Times brings Trump's tax scam to the party . It's a late September surprise that could tip some voters into Biden's camp. Of course, the White House is squealing about more "fake news."  That's a pretty lame response if you ask me.  If it's fake news, he needs to back up that claim with proof that the Times has either made up a story (unlikely) or has made a huge journalist blunder (possible but not likely). So here's my beef with Trump today: 1.  Don't tell me it's fake news unless you can prove it . 2.  It's a privilege to be an American.  Taxes are how we support that privilege.  Pay your fair share.  You're lucky to be an American.  Tax cheaters are nothing but free loaders who want the benefits of being an American without paying for those benefits. 3.  I paid more tax than the President.  You probably did too.  So did the majority of his base.  That's just wro

The Trump Brain Trust Includes Eric Trump. Good.

PENSEE #8  Nobody is going to mistake Eric Trump for a "stable genius."  His reaction to the New York Times report on Donald's tax issues is a good example of why he should just shut up.   “They’ve been writing that article for three months and they wanted it to drop the morning before the debate!” he said. “These are disgusting people!” So here's the problem, Eric.  If you don't like focusing on taxes just before the debate, Donald had a 100% opportunity to pick a better time for the bad news.  At any point in the last 4 years, he could have disclosed this information himself.  But no.   I noticed that in his self righteous disgust, he didn't say that the NYT got it wrong.  So let's focus on the real issues here: 1.  Who does Donald owe more than $400M to? 2.  These loans are not for the Trump businesses.  They're personal loans to DJT.  How does he plan to repay them? 3.  Are any of these loans from foreign sources?  Does DJT have foreign debts? 4.

I haven't been a Catholic since 1970.  Long story, and I don't want to offend friends and family by challenging their beliefs.  Live and let live.   I rarely post 3 times in one day.  Today I'm making an exception. I was stunned when I saw this post on Flipboard.  Speechless.   So I won't have anything to say here, other than read this one yourself.
