They say: Beware the IDES OF MARCH....

--Not a good day for dictators, historically
--Notable by the Romans as the day for settling debts


So, one might ponder, what will the day bring for the Trumpistas?
What say ye, Mr. Mueller?

For the song "When Johnny Comes Rolling Home." That must have really struck a chord with some of them.

I could see where they got some hate mail for it from right wing-nuts. Like Bernie says, "If you're not going to take care of your veterans, then don't go to war."

I think we did the actual recording in 2005. Clinton even sent a hand-written note saying how much he liked the "Blame-O" song. You can believe I still have that note! We sort went into hibernation during Obama's presidency, but have been rather busy again in the last year or so!

the Republican party. They will go like the Whigs.

I think the Dems will step up and will ultimately form two parties - a more conservative-leaning (but still sane) party and a progressive party.

I mean, we already see some of that on here. I'm a New 'New Deal' Democrat - basically supporting Bernie's platform, but some on here are a bit more conservative about proposed policies. And that's definitely OK. That is how the Founders wanted our government, plenty of negotiation and compromise to move forward.

Right now, though, we need to focus on sweeping EVERY Republican out of office this November. If we can flip both houses, THEN we go from there, but that is the overarching goal.

Be sure to attend The Brides Of March this Sunday, 2018/03/18

Deets: http://sf.funcheap.com/brides-march-wedding-dress-pub-crawl-union-square/

It's a total riot, especially when they have a SantaCon on the same day...

Maybe Cheetolini should attend, and re-experience what it's like to have fun. Instead of being an insecure petty tyrant.
