Final 2016 Presidential Debate

The third and last 2016 Presidential Debate will be broadcast live tonight from the University of Nevada in Las Vegas @ 9:00 P.M., EDT.

Does this final debate really matter?

It might if there are actually undecided voters at this point — and if the mainstream media disseminated the following information 24/7 (hat tip to Virtual Mirage for the video below):


LL of Virtual Mirage reminds us of the following:

When WikiLeaks first went on-line and published information that damaged the Bush Administration, liberals cheered loudly. Julian Assange, WikiLeaks founder, was a hero. They're not cheering now...

Read the rest HERE.

Pastorius of Infidel Bloggers Alliance informs us:

The Washington Post has not mentioned that Hillary and her people conspired to delete emails and have them scrubbed from her servers AFTER a Federal Subpoena. They have only reported on Wikileaks that were not so damaging to Hillary.

The Washington Post and the rest of the MSM are trying to bury the incredibly damaging Wikileaks by ignoring them and colluding in an anti-Trump "Pussy" campaign.

💥 Wow, ZERO mention of WikiLeaks by 3 big MSM‼️Total collusion to protect Hillary‼️@realDonaldTrump pic.twitter.com/qZPbZdqLVM

And there's this, which includes the RSVP guest list: Podesta Held Dinners For Reporters Who Would Be Covering Clinton.

Will you be watching the final Presidential debate, in part or in whole?

I haven't decided whether or not I want to spend time and energy watching any more of this election's political theater.

The Subversive Partnership

The partnership: the Enemedia's partnership with the Clinton Political Machine and the partnership between "the establishment GOP" and the Clinton Political Machine.

Post-Debate Thought

Comment I made yesterday during the second 2016 Presidential debate:

You know what I'm sick and tired of?

All sorts of "news" and entertainment media acting so offended and and horrified about braggadocio-male Trump when those same media people entities have been debasing American culture and the traditional American ethos for at least three decades!

And for the record...Donald Trump did apologize — at least twice.

The News Networks — And The Second 2016 Presidential Debate

Note: this thread will remain here for a few days and may also be used to discuss the October 9 debate between Hillary Rodham Clinton and Donald J. Trump.

One of my Facebook finds:

It's a little funny, but when you sit and let it sink in, it's really not:

NBC = Nobody But Clinton

ABC = Always Believe Clinton

CBS = Clinton Broadcasting System

CNN = Clinton News Network

CNNHL =Clinton News Network Honesty Lost

MSNBC = More Same Nobody But Clinton

PBS = Proletariat Broadcasting System

FOX = Fair Objective eXperts
I'm not so sure about that last one.

Fox's Friday frenzy to cover the revelation of Donald Trump's use of "the p-word" — in a private conversation aboard a Hollywood studio bus some eleven years ago — instead of emphasizing the same day's revelations regarding Hillary Rodham Clinton's paid speeches differed little from the coverage afforded by the other networks.

Why Hillary Clinton wasn’t indicted

Posted by Warren

According to James Comey, the director of the FBI, Hillary wasn't indited because her "reckless negligence" didn't give evidence of wilful intent. (poor stupid Hilary didn't mean to break the law.)

It hard to believe that destroying evidence, lying before Congress and enlisting the aid of employees and sycophants in destroying evidence doesn't rise to the level of intent but, there you are!

Vice-Presidential Debate

Consider the ages of Hillary Rodham Clinton and Donald J. Trump.

These candidates for Vice President of the United States should be scrutinized because one of them could well become the President during the next President' first term.

Tonight, WE THE PEOPLE get one chance to see Tim Kaine (D) and Mike Pence (R) face off.  This thread is dedicated to discussion of the Vice-Presidential candidates and their October 4 debate.  Have at it!

Note well: off-topic comments will be deleted as soon as a blog administrator becomes aware of such comments.

A fresh bag of dry food was just opened, and Amber, a foodie, could hardly wait to get her share.

The fix is in.....again.

Roger Simon says,  "In a stunning Friday (isn't it always?) revelation, we found out that yet another key figure from Hillary Clinton's "rat pack" -- her former chief-of-staff Cheryl Mills - was given immunity in the email server investigation."

(Please read the link before commenting)

IMO, the FBI has left the business of investigation of criminality and entered the business of immunizing as many criminals as possible from prosecution. At least "Progressive" criminals.

But the rot goes much deeper

Step up right here and get your third world bananas before they rot.

Societal Devolution

One of my recent finds at Facebook:

How will a generation of sniveling whiners face the harsh realities of a world that is not a gentle world?

The real world is not a mommy who holds everyone's hand and coos, "There, there. You're poor widdle feelings have been hurt."

Chaffetz Schools a Stooge

Please watch the following video to the end. It's only about 4 1/2 minutes long, and you will see how the head of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform (Rep. Jason Chaffetz) braces a FBI representative.

The problem is that the FBI has decided, unilaterally, without Constitutional or legal precedent that it can withhold, cherry-pick and redact  information asked for by Congress. 

It bothers me a great deal that a Federal agency (especially the FBI) thinks it can get away with this and gives us another glimpse into how seedy our government has become. 

AOW cutting in here....Readers should note who published this blog post.

Within The Last 24 Hours

(Hat tip to Infidel Bloggers Alliance for the information in this blog post. Because we are doing some renovations here at this old house, I was off my watch yesterday, when all this was going on)

Let's see....The following have happened in the last 24 hours in the United States:

1. Pipe bomb at a military parade in Seaside Park, New Jersey.

2. Explosion in a mall in Charlottesville, Virginia.

3. Explosions in Manhattan (a pressure cooker bomb was found but apparently did not detonate. An IED did apparently detonate).

4. Muslims stampeded through the Mall of America in Minnesota. Erratum! This occurred on September 12 as part of the Islamic celebration of Eid Al Adha. Please take a look at the video at the link. This is America?

5. A Muslim went on a stabbing spree in a mall in St. Cloud, Minnesota. He asked at least one victim if that victim was Muslim before stabbing that victim.

WHAT A SATURDAY, HUH?

Since I queued up this post a few days ago, Hillary Clinton has had a medical episode. What's going on with her? Something, clearly:

Even the Washington Post is now concerned about Hillary's health, as evinced by Hillary Clinton’s health just became a real issue in the presidential campaign, which appeared in the September 11, 2016 online edition. Quite a shift from a few days before:
