WINO: Wealth In Name Only

Written: June 20, 2022


There are thousands of MAGA-MANIACS in this Country who still have not gotten lobotomized (i.e., Lauren Boebert, Ted Cruz, Marjorie Taylor Green) and have shown no discernible differences to those who have.  The 3 Stooges that I have used as examples are known to the general public since they are in the news just about on a daily basis and which I continue to denigrate when given the opportunity.  However, this article is not about them, this is about another nut-job who is neither National News nor of tongue wagging variety but, if he plays his cards right, he soon will be.  He has, however, achieved local notoriety in his home state of Missouri.  Eric Greitens, a former disgraced  GOP Governor, has thrown his flash grenade into the ring and is campaigning for the U.S. Senate.  His campaign ad shows him with a shotgun leading  an armed SWAT team searching for RINO’s.  He states that he is a Navy Seal (former) and wants folks to join the MAGA crew and for a $25.00 campaign contribution, one can obtain a RINO hunting permit.  There is no bagging or tagging limit and does not expire until they save the Country.  Facebook has removed the ad for violating it’s policy and Twitter has posted a disclaimer.  Just what we need, another gun-totin’ mega MAGA moron!


I guess it’s time for me to explain to you folks as to why I had written an article just about on a daily basis from November 1, 2020 through May 27, 2021 and have only written a handful since.  The best reason is that nothing had changed in that time period.  Nothing, except more whack-a-doodles coming out of the woodwork.  We have been completely inundated with idiots, imbeciles and morons who believe they are following the true faith in honoring the golden-haired fat calf and his belief in “The Big Lie!”  However, on a personal level, sometime in the Spring of 2021, I started treating my articles in the same format as I do for movies: For Entertainment Purposes Only!  In fact, I have taken these MAGA moguls to the next level and have come up with an idea for a better mousetrap.  In other words, the time has now arrived for me to make a profit and make mega-millions off of these MAGA minions.  Let me set the stage and draw it out for you.


Back in the mid 70’s, Mattel Corporation introduced the arcade game Whac-A-Mole, which will be the mousetrap we will turn into a new and improved model.  Instead of using the mole, groundhog or prairie dog pop ups, we use MAGA mutt puppet pop-ups fashioned after all of our favorite Wepublican Wackos.  Think about it, you have the same Whac-A-Mole game design, but instead of only 6 or so targets that pop up, we will design 4 across and 4 down and have 12 potential targets, you know, sort of a dirty dozen concept.  Here is where it gets a little tricky as the decision will have to be made as to which 12 Whac-A-Mutt look alikes do we want to use along with the previous aforementioned 3 Stooges and what do we call this entertaining game?  Hold it!  I just had a brain-fart!  I believe I have the answer.  We design 2 models, the aforementioned 12 hole Dirty Dozen of honorees and a smaller 6-hole Trump only version and the game names will be “Whac-A-Doodle” and “Thump-A-Trump!”  Whoa!!!  This has to be one of the best cockamamie marketing ploys I have ever come up with.  I envision these high volume entertainment concepts in every shopping mall in the nation plus all the carnival arcade set-ups at County and State Fairs.  Folks will be googling for the closest outlet and I will be living out of a Brinks Truck.  Watcha think?  Stay tuned…..!

The McGrinch That Stole Your Stimulus

I disagreed with my wife just now, something that I never do, since the repercussions are quite disturbing.  Here’s what went down.  She stated that Mitch McConnell can’t stoop any lower into the depravity he wallows in.  I stood tall, took a deep breath, looked her right in the eye and spewed out “Yes he can!”  It was a moment frozen in time and then she smiled.   No systematic repercussions followed.  Whew!  Now, as a politician, he has a certain inalienable right to say one thing and mean another, or to talk out of two sides of his mouth, but Mitcheroo, has the extraneous ability to talk out of two faces.  Unfortunately, those two faces resemble both Scrooge and The Grinch.  Isn’t it easy for someone with a net worth of $22,200,000 to stand at a podium in the hallowed halls of Congress and object to raising the stimulus check amount from $600.00 to $2,000.00?  Then there’s Pat Toomey, R-Pennsylvania, who said there are too many citize...

Uncommon Failure

Okay, I’ll let you all be the judge and jury of the following statement that I came across that was buried in the dark corners of the internet where I usually find my strange and highly unusual articles of confoundation.  This is a Los Angeles Times letter to the editor ( https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2021-04-12/huntington-beach-ku-klux-klan ) about the “burb” of Huntington Beach.  Headline: “Common ground with the Ku Klux Klan?  Huntington Beach has a problem.”  The letter starts off with, “As Huntington Beach was preparing for a Ku Klux Klan rally and, in response, a Black Lives Matter counter protest, police department spokesman Lt. Brian Smith said,” now here’s the kicker, “We hope that they can utilize events like this as a means to find the common ground and work together for the common goal.”  ???  I thought I would substitute the usual WTF that usually follows an incredulous statement like that with question marks.  I never pass up the ...

The New Cult

Past cult leaders the likes of Sun Myung Moon, David Koresh and Jim Jones, exemplary role models for “Moonies”, “Davidians” and “Peoples Templers” are said to have had a charismatic  gift of gab and were able to ensnarl a whole slew of followers into their realm.  They, of course, have since passed into the great beyond.  Moon was 92 when he died of pneumonia, Korish was 33 when he and his zealots died with guns blazing and Jones 47, died with his lemmings from a bad dose of kool-aid.  There was a rumor going around that his last words were, “Hey, did someone spike this stuff!”   Like Stalin, Hitler and Atilla the Hun, these folks had the innate ability to sway the masses.  To this day, I still can’t figure out how.  I was more enamored with garden slugs than those “coots.”  Nowadays, we have a new malady in our midst, an anomaly if you will, who not only doesn’t have a gift of gab, but cannot even enunciate words correctly, uses alternative facts...
