I think the ideology Bernie is selling is fanciful, but underlying it is a moral critique of modern capitalism that has merit and deserves to be heard. But Bernie is not being truthful about the costs. What is grating about Hillary is that her prevarications seem so unnecessary and often insult our intelligence. But they are not about existential issues. As for Trump, his lies are industrial size and often contradict each other. But there is no theory behind his lies, except what will advance him, which is why Trump is only scary if he wins. Otherwise, his candidacy will leave no ideas behind. It will just be a reality TV show that got canceled.<br /><br />This is serious. We’re about to elect all three branches of our government. I wish we had better choices, but given the options, I’d vote for the candidate who is most likely to be a practical unifier and get some things done — and who only tells whoppers about herself, not about my country’s future. </a></b></i><br /><br /> Les Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01120280762698472496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974854794610797806.post-82832785033651019662016-04-30T17:05:09.853-07:002016-04-30T17:05:09.853-07:00Ha ha ha!

As for the Eagles...Poco has plenty of great music. As for the Eagles, they got lucky at the time they got signed to Asylum Records. The story behind it was that David Geffen was looking for a label to sign Jackson Browne. Geffen had solicited 4 record companies, with each of them telling him Jackson Browne was the worst singer they ever heard. One of the executives at Atlantic Records told Geffen to form his own company and sign him on, promising Geffen that they would distribute his record company artists. Geffen came across the Eagles and Linda Rondstadt at the time and got them going along with Jackson Browne. A few years later, Geffen sold his profitable company Asylum Records to Atlantic, and they merged it with Elektra Records. The Eagles made their fortune thanks to David Geffen. Don Henley never forgot who brought him fame after he went solo, as he signed onto Geffen Records after he left Asylum Records.mystere's moonbat slayer clubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12059909696097340275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974854794610797806.post-87224828027927248702016-04-29T10:35:01.736-07:002016-04-29T10:35:01.736-07:00Say something, Pookie Toot Toot!Say something, Pookie Toot Toot!mystere's moonbat slayer clubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12059909696097340275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974854794610797806.post-83695634710564349022016-04-29T10:32:12.651-07:002016-04-29T10:32:12.651-07:00Pookie Toot-Toot's only talent is stinking up ...Pookie Toot-Toot's only talent is stinking up conservative blogs by yanking poo from liberal stink sites.mystere's moonbat slayer clubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12059909696097340275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974854794610797806.post-31779619339978070212016-04-26T04:49:27.643-07:002016-04-26T04:49:27.643-07:00On the Slow Dance of Death

The Eagles even stole two members: Randy Meisner and Tim Schmidt. But before Poco, The Eagles and FBB, the Byrds started it all with 'Sweetheart of the Rodeo.'
