Many years ago I was an enlisted man in the United States Coast Guard Reserve, often underway in the nearby North Atlantic, conducting fisheries patrols. When a change of course was required in rough seas the bridge would pipe the following … [Read more...]

November 2016 – America at the Dawn of the Great Dismal

November 6, 2016 By steven-j-gulitti Leave a Comment

In mid-October Hillary Clinton was ahead of Donald Trump by 11 points, as of this morning, 11/6/16, most of that lead had dissipated thanks to the latest batch of e-mails, which may have been inappropriately released, many of which may in … [Read more...]

Rand Paul and Another Libertarian Fizzle

February 3, 2016 By steven-j-gulitti 3 Comments

If Rand Paul had ever had the juice behind his presidential bid that Donald Trump had and then failed to perform I'd label his departure from the 2016 race a flameout. However in this case, as in many libertarian efforts in the past, it's … [Read more...]

November 1, 2015 By steven-j-gulitti 2 Comments

For Conservatives, The Benghazi Hearings Could Become One More Disaster In a Year of Disasters

October 26, 2015 By steven-j-gulitti Leave a Comment

I'm not even remotely a fan of the Clinton's, but with regard to how things are shaping up of late, one thing seems to be certain, 2015 has already been a bad year for America's conservatives and the Benghazi Hearings could just become the … [Read more...]

Fox News On June 26th, 2015, Oh How Odd It All Seems

June 26, 2015 By steven-j-gulitti Leave a Comment

The Far Greater Threat of Domestic Terror

June 23, 2015 By steven-j-gulitti 7 Comments

Our entire public debate is decades behind the realities we know we face now, and as we understand those realities better, most of our findings will reveal our problems to be even more pressing than we thought they were.

That's just what the 2020s are going be like. https://twitter.com/DrNoelHealy/status/1204204976953626624

This final slide from @MichaelEMann is devastating. The time for incremental climate policy is over.🚨He estimates annual emissions may have to drop by 15% a year (rather than 7.5%)🚨. In other words we have zero years to tackle climate change. We need a #GreenNewDeal now #GND

The take away of this story doesn't seem to be that impeachment is bad for Democrats. It's that opposing impeachment is so bad for Democrats they can't remain Democrats. https://twitter.com/AndrewDesiderio/status/1205949264515481600

NEWS: Rep. Jeff Van Drew, a Democrat who opposes impeachment, plans to switch parties and become a Republican.

Staff were informed today. Question now is when, not if, he makes it official.
