Malfunction at the junction

Robert Reich discusses the dysfunctional aspects of the so-called presidency.

Many (if not all) Republican voters are dumb enough to believe that reality TV shows are reality. Hint: Anything that occurs on a set with lights and is filmed by cameras is staged, not reality. At any rate, the morons who voted for the blubber butt believed they were electing the brilliant real estate tycoon he played on his popular TV show.

Reich explains that voters who dreamed they were electing the most effective manager ever born were the victims of a con artist (and their own ignorance).

There are two schools of thought on the matter of what we're seeing:
  • The so-called president is really as grossly incompetent and unqualified as he appears, or
  • the chaos and confusion are part of a deliberate strategy, using misdirection to obscure the process of installing an authoritarian ruler.
Either way, it's up to Congress and the courts to get this situation under control soon. If they don't, they need to be treated like accomplices in a felony.

Summer walks in Texas

Judging by the amount of water on driveways and sidewalks and in the street, some Texans seem to think you can grow concrete and asphalt using lawn sprinklers.
