Anybody else reminded of Cotton (Hank Hill's father) from King of the Hill, when they see a pic of Bloomberg? Big Grin

No separate segment for Joe today,and no description. Grouped all together, guess WMAL was running a skeleton staff for Presidents Day. Joe's segment starts at 2:7:38.

re: "Nevada Democrat Club officials are warning voters the results from the caucus may be delayed due to “technology glitches” in the planned use of “custom Google calculator” that will be deployed to calculate the results"

"calculator"....I for one, do not understand the "need for a calculator".

As far as I (used to) know, you needed an adding machine. Count, total, add. Confirm. No calculations involved. But that was long ago.

Technically, addition is a "calculation." OTOH, one would think that a custom application from Google wouldn't be necessary to perform elementary school arithmetic.

I believe this "calculator" is also used for reporting, it's 2020, everything is "cloud" based. So google spits out the total from the districts that use the app, in theory. Clearly not in reality, based on what happened in IA, of course those boneheads wrote their own "app". Razz

Trump just commuted the sentence Corrupt Illinois Gov, Rod Blagojovich.

Time to take down Obama.

I’m thinking Hot Rod may have some dirt on Obama.

I wonder if it's to hush the democrats when he pardons a few of his own soon...




Knowing what one is talking about is widely admired but not strictly required here.

Although sometimes distracting, there is often a certain entertainment value to this easy standard.

Was thinking the same thing. After scratching my head, setting the stage for a Roger Stone pardon was the first thing that came to mind. It's fun to watch Trump play chess while the Dems and the media think it's checkers.

How is pardoning either of them a good thing?

Is it possible that Trump really cares about people as individuals. I've seen a lot of evidence of this over the years. Maybe there is no nefarious strategy at all. As far as Milken goes, he's been a big philanthropist, having given millions to charity since his release from prison and maybe Trump is just rewarding him for that. There doesn't have to be a hidden reason for everything that Trump does.
