Arizona's Right to Discriminate Law

http://www.stonekettle.com/2014/02/arizona-goddam.html?spref=fb

C'mon. Seriously?
Two possibilities. Brewer vetoes it. Or Brewer signs it, and the courts overturn it. The odds that this becomes the law in Arizona? Nil. Ain't going to happen. No how. No way.

The whole thing is sheer insanity.

Nye/Ham

  Ken Ham wasn't able to finance the completion of his Noah's Ark exhibit in Kentucky. He was fading away into oblivion. While we pat ourselves on the back for the Bill Nye "obvious and overwhelming victory" in the debate, I predict that we're going to be subjected to much more publicity for Ken Ham, his attendance will go up @ his "museum", and he's going to finish his scam of an exhibit. And he almost faded away into obscurity...

Death of the GOP?

They had one very bad, extremely bad, day. Kind of showed all their cards. Were enough of us paying attention to be able to do anything about it? Let's hope. I think not, but I think they were slightly wounded...

Extortion

http://realitybyalex.blogspot.com/2014/01/markets-and-sotu.html

Either way, it's a win-win for the richest and most powerful, and a lose-lose for all the rest of us.

I Predicted This

Elizabeth Warren Isn’t Running so Hillary Clinton Will Face No Dem Opposition in ’16

  But it seems, not here. I'm giving myself a "win" on this one, though. My FaceBook postings will show that I said this well before this article. Warren will have much more influence in the Senate for the next 14 years or so, or as long as she wants. She is the new progressive "Lion of the Senate" as is befitting of the Ted Kennedy seat she holds.

   I would like to see her get more help by Russ Feingold rejoining the Senate. We could get some shit done, there...

Cleaning Up

It's time to check in on my "hit" record on these Wild Ass Guesses. Why? Because it's late, I'm up, and I just went through the past posts to review.

Let's see....:

Rhino Virus. Missed by a mile. My cold came and went within a week, and I had time to catch another 48 hour bug that passed with a bit of distress about a month later. I'm an old wreck of a human being, but the colds are at bay at least.

"Off" and "On". Meh. About average. I'd call it close.

Celebrity Deaths. What did you expect? Of course that one is on. That's not a guess. That's statistics (an art I'm not even close to understanding, BTW). Whatever. There's a lot of old celebs. And young reckless ones.

TV News Distraction Alert. Never heard another peep about it. Anyone else? Miss.

Next Ten Years. We have a ways to go. So far, so good.

Readership. Comes and goes depending on my diligence, which is always lacking. Mostly goes... Meh.

MacGillicuddy's Reeks. I just hope someone enjoyed the tune.

Paul Simon Was Right. Well, what did you expect? Of course he was.

Nontipping Homophobe. Screwed that one up entirely. Never expected the server to be a duplicitous psycho.

Dr. Ben Carson. Dead on.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/02/10/ben-carson-nazi-germany_n_4761388.html
My Right Wing Competition. I'm not doing so great, but they set the bar low. Piece of cake.

Speaking of Prognosticators. She's still dead, last I heard. The other two? We probably won't get that lucky.

THIS is Our Future. Still pending. But, yeah.

Sylvia Brown, Fraud, Con is Dead. Still dead. I'm not privy to her book sales tallies, but I'm sure her necrophiliac fans are keeping her corpse financially afloat.

Snowfall. I'm no meteorologist, that much is certain.

NCAA Football Champions. Nailed it. Still don't know or care who won.

$60,000. Nailed it. Still under-reported environmental rape going on all over the place. Still no damage to the bottom line of any company or anyone going to jail.

Memo to many in West Virginia: Don't drink the water

Prison Population Will Continue to Grow and Show Profit. Well, yeah. Lobbyists will win when there's money to be made. There is no vocal opposition here of any consequence, and probably won't be.

Death of Religion. Maybe 4 or 5. But it's coming faster than we think.

Battle for $15. Should be for $28, but no, it's not going to win. We're going to be screwed. It's the American Way.

The others are from this year. I may update or not... Thanks for watching.
