Although T.S. Eliot said April was the cruelest month, I’d argue that it’s actually March. It’s long as hell: 31 days, the only non-Summer month with no real holidays, Daylight Savings Time kicks in, most places are cold yet the holidays are long gone, and it just feels like the most uneventful month of the…

Actually, Killing Putin will PREVENT Nuclear War
Cowardly pundits in the America media seem obsessed with the idea that angering Putin in any way would lead to nuclear war, and are determined to flex their inner-Neville Chamberlains in order to pretend this situation in Ukraine can end well if all we all just give Putin everything he wants or tip-toe around him…
Appeasement Doesn’t Work, but Decapitation Does
Appeasement doesn’t work, and Alabama Liberal has real doubts about counter-insurgency, but cutting off the head of the snake (a terrorist group, a criminal cartel, or rogue state) actually is incredibly effective.
The Real “Fake News,” is that Trump is Still “Extremely Popular” Within the Republican Party
Some commentary I’ve picked up over the last year: “Alabama Liberal, you said [in a February 2021 video] that Trump’s base would quietly leave him just like W. Bush’s fanatics left him, but that hasn’t happened at all. Were you spectacularly wrong or what?” …Myself: “Not at all, and it’s actually happening faster than I…
The Democrats I’m Most Worried About in 2022
Not all problems Democrats face this year will come from Republicans. Here, I take a look at the 10 Democrats most likely to cause major headaches in the year ahead… Mentions: Raphael Warnock, Catherine Cortez Masto, Mark Kelly…Unlike the rest of the people on this list, it’s not that I’m worried so much about them,…
Of Course, Trump’s Coup Must Be Prosecuted
There seems to be a question of whether or not Democrats should spend time or political capital prosecuting Trump’s coup attempt and his various henchmen for their roles in the January 6th insurrection. The thinking usually goes something like “If Trump (or his goons) go to prison, won’t that just lead to Republicans retaliating by…
Bubba Goes to Shanghai
Bubba goes to Shanghai to find out what happened to his town’s off-shored jobs, eventually doing battle with sassy toilets, witches, pirates, and the main castle of outsourcing.
Fox News Tries Kid’s Programming in “Propaganda for Tots”
In the new Fox News children’s show, all is happy in the princess-ruled kingdom, until the horrible Bear-nie Sanders arrives to spread socialism…
If Republicans Only Care About G.I.A. (Guns, Immigration, Abortion), Political Correctness, and Taxes–They’re Basically little Kids
“How can we understand a Republican mindset?” It’s not hard to figure out… Guns, immigration, abortion, political correctness, and taxes. Other than absolutely ludicrous conspiracy theories, these are the only five things I ever see Republicans talk about (they love the first one and they hate the other four). It’s tiresome, if I’m being honest….
Who is the Closest to Being the Real Life Lex Luthor?
While there’s a lot of good candidates (the Koch Brothers, for example), I think the three top choices are…Trump, Jeff Bezos, and Vladimir Putin. Trump…He’s the most obvious and top candidate. A lot of people like Lex Luthor and can’t see how evil he is no matter how many times Superman catches him doing something…
Three Things That Can Help Unity and Healing This Nation
The themes of Biden’s inauguration were (essentially) compassion, competency, and healing the very real divisions that Trump spent four years exacerbating. But can real unity be achieved? It never has been before (infighting has been around since the days of Adams and Jefferson or the fatal duel of Hamilton and Burr), but things could certainly…
Elections are like ink blot tests: People See What They Want to When They Lose
Election losses are a little bit like “ink blot tests” in that you see what you want to see… In 2008, it was said Republicans were too far right to appeal to most Americans, and many predicted Obama’s Presidency was the beginning of 50-year Democratic rule…Instead, the Tea Party swept into power. In 2012, after…
Is Melania Trump a Red Sparrow?
Has Melania Trump been sent by Moscow authorities to seduce Donald Trump? Does anyone else find her background (supposedly ex-prostitute Trump literally picked out of a catalogue) and the way they met a little fishy? Almost as if Trump had her placed in his path by Russian authorities? And then there’s the fact that Stephanie…
