Sanity Sunday: The Weekly Review (Aug 27-Sept 2) and a Musical Break

by Nomad

Considering Trump's past antics, this week was seemingly tranquil. One reason for that was the McCain funeral to which President Trump was cordially not invited. Despite the sting of the shunning, Trump still managed to find ways to draw attention and, in doing so, make a complete ass of himself.

Short Announcement

To all my loyal readers and friends,

As you might have noticed, I have been taking a break from writing blog posts lately. The whole Google thing discouraged me a little. (For the full story, go to:

I still haven't found a way to resolve that problem without deleting every supporting quote. And Google has no right to insist that bloggers who are not simply stealing content do something like that.  If that is allowed, the copyright laws will be used to censor information by anybody who doesn't like what they read. Anyway..

As you might know, before the election, I was writing on average three times a week and that's a hard schedule to maintain.  I think I deserve some time off for good behavior. :)

Besides that, the time seemed right to take a break until the first of the year. The holidays will be occupying minds more than politics, hopefully.

So, with your permission, I will be re-charging my batteries over the holiday season. But I plan to drop non-research-type posts in every now and then. 

Thanks to you all for your support. It means a lot to me.
